Getting Started with quiCkLI: Designing CLI Applications

Designing a CLI is more than mapping strings to functions. You need to decide how users discover commands, provide values, recover from mistakes, and compose tools in scripts.

quiCkLI makes these decisions explicit: applications own dispatch, commands describe operations, and arguments and options describe inputs. That simplicity is useful, but it also means the caller still owns process output and exit codes.

Treat the boundary between the framework and the executable wrapper as a design decision, not an implementation detail.
