apcore-cli
High-performance CLI adapter for apcore modules
apcore-cli is the "inside-out" adapter for the apcore ecosystem. apcore-cli takes your apcore modules and automatically exposes them as CLI subcommands — with zero code changes. It handles zero-config routing, schema-driven arguments, boolean flag pairs, enum choices, STDIN piping, TTY-adaptive output, approval gates, schema validation, security features, shell completions, man pages, and audit logging. It serves as the terminal-native counterpart to apcore-mcp and apcore-a2a.
