What is oclif-patterns?

It is a specialized skill for Claude Code that provides standardized patterns, templates, and best practices for building command-line interfaces using the oclif framework.

Is TypeScript required for these patterns?

While oclif can work with JavaScript, these patterns are specifically designed for TypeScript to take advantage of type-safe flag and argument parsing.

How does it handle command documentation?

The skill implements oclif's auto-documentation patterns, helping you generate help text, usage examples, and README command references automatically.

Does this skill help with CLI testing?

Yes, it provides comprehensive testing patterns including command unit tests, integration testing, and mocking stdin/stdout using @oclif/test and fancy-test.

Can I use this for building CLI plugins?

Absolutely. It includes dedicated templates for plugin packages, lifecycle hooks, and manifest management to ensure your CLI is extensible.
