The catalog is auto-updated and provides:

• Full list of available CLIs organized by category
• One-line cli-hub install commands for each tool
• Complete descriptions and usage patterns

Note: The file is served as .txt but contains markdown formatting for easy parsing.

What Can You Do?

CLI-Hub covers a broad range of software and codebases, empowering agents to conduct complex workflows via CLI:

• Creative workflows: Image editing, 3D modeling, video production, audio processing, music notation
• Productivity tools: Office suites, knowledge management, live streaming
• AI platforms: Local LLMs, image generation, AI APIs, research assistants
• Communication: Video conferencing and collaboration
• Development: Diagramming, browser automation, network management
• Content generation: AI-powered document and media creation

Each CLI provides stateful operations, JSON output for agents, REPL mode, and integrates with real software backends.

How It Works

cli-hub is a lightweight wrapper around pip. When you run cli-hub install gimp, it installs a separate Python package (cli-anything-gimp) with its own CLI entry point (cli-anything-gimp). Each CLI is an independent pip package — cli-hub simply resolves names from the registry and tracks installs.

How to Use

1. Install cli-hub: pip install cli-anything-hub
2. Find your tool: cli-hub search <keyword> or cli-hub list -c <category>
3. Install: cli-hub install <name> (installs the cli-anything-<name> pip package)
4. Run: cli-anything-<name> for REPL, or cli-anything-<name> <command> for one-shot
5. JSON output: All CLIs support --json flag for machine-readable output

Example Workflow

# Install the hub
pip install cli-anything-hub

# Find what you need
cli-hub search video

# Install it
cli-hub install kdenlive

# Use it with JSON output
cli-anything-kdenlive --json project create --name my-project
