Uni-CLIThe universal interface between AI agents and the world's software.

A shell-native command layer for real operations: discover by intent, execute typed adapters, return structured AgentEnvelopes, and repair broken automation in place.

Search By Intent

Bilingual BM25 maps natural language to runnable commands across 235 sites and 1448 commands.

Operate Real Surfaces

The same CLI spans web APIs, browser automation, macOS apps, desktop tools, and external CLIs.

Return Agent Envelopes

Markdown, JSON, YAML, CSV, and compact output share the same v2 success/error contract.

Repair In Place

Failures include adapter path, pipeline step, retryability, suggestions, and alternatives.

Plug Into Agents

CLI-first execution stays native to coding agents; MCP, ACP, and JSON streams are compatibility surfaces.

Stay Small

YAML adapters compose typed pipeline steps and avoid heavy per-site SDK dependencies.

Current Version

v0.216.3 is live on npm.

Published as the npm latest tag with provenance.
OpenCLI parity remains at 0 missing sites and 0 missing commands against the current reference manifest.
Fast-path discovery now falls back cleanly when the generated manifest is absent.
The public docs catalog now reports the current 235-site, 1448-command surface.

One catalog, many surfaces

From one intent search to a runnable command.

Uni-CLI keeps the first interaction small: search the catalog, choose the narrow command, run it, and get a structured result or a repairable error.

Positioning

Uni-CLI is built for agents that already have a shell. MCP compatibility is available, but the primary path is faster and smaller: discover with unicli search, inspect with unicli describe, execute with unicli <site> <command>, and repair through the adapter path in the error envelope.

First Command

bash

npm install -g @zenalexa/unicli
unicli search "hacker news frontpage"
unicli hackernews top --limit 5

Agent Index

The website also publishes an agent-readable index at /llms.txt. It points agents to the install path, command catalog, adapter format, and repair loop without making them crawl the whole site first.
