By name: codemod-cli-tui description: Use when changing Codemod CLI commands, terminal UI, workflow command behavior, auth/login, publish/search/unpublish, init templates, report server, npm CLI wrapper, quiet-mode output, terminal dependencies, or command tests.
Codemod CLI And TUI
Key Areas
- Commands:
crates/cli/src/commands - TUI:
crates/cli/src/tui - Templates:
crates/cli/src/templates - CLI helpers:
crates/cli/src/utils - npm wrapper:
crates/cli/npm - Report UI:
crates/cli/report-ui
Rules
- The CLI owns all user-facing terminal output for the repo. Other crates and packages must expose structured data, errors, events, reports, or logs for CLI routing.
- Preserve non-interactive behavior; CI-facing commands must not prompt unexpectedly.
- Keep command-specific logic in command modules and shared behavior in
utilsonly when reused. - TUI/quiet mode must not write workflow logs, prompts, agent output, spinners, or progress directly
to stdout/stderr while
WorkflowOutputSettings.quietis true. - Direct writes outside CLI-owned output paths can leak to stdout while the TUI is shown or bypass JSONL formatting.
- Route quiet-mode interaction through workflow/TUI events and task logs.
- Template changes should update generated package files and user-facing template docs together.
- npm wrapper changes need wrapper tests because users install through the package, not only the Rust binary.
Validation
- Rust CLI:
cargo test -p codemod - npm wrapper:
pnpm --filter codemod test - Terminal dependency graph:
bash ./scripts/check-single-crossterm.sh - Report UI build:
pnpm --filter codemod-report-ui build
