A new tool called CLI Anything may change how AI agents interact with software.
It allows you to transform any open-source software into a command line interface (CLI) tool that can be controlled directly by AI agents.
Instead of using programs by clicking through graphical interfaces, the tool automatically analyzes the software’s source code and generates terminal commands to control it.
This makes it possible for AI agents to perform tasks in those programs without needing APIs, complex integrations, or fragile automation setups.
The process is simple:
- Install CLI Anything
- Point it to the software repository
- The tool analyzes the code
- It automatically generates the CLI, tests, and documentation
In practice, this means AI agents could control applications such as graphic editors, audio software, development tools, or any other open-source program directly from the terminal.
This opens the door to much more powerful automation and agents that can truly operate real software.
