Advanced tools
Make any website or Electron App your CLI.
Zero risk · Reuse Chrome login · AI-powered discovery · Browser + Desktop automation
A CLI tool that turns any website or Electron app into a command-line interface — Bilibili, Zhihu, 小红书, Twitter/X, Reddit, YouTube, Antigravity, and many more — powered by browser session reuse and AI-native discovery.
🔥 CLI All Electron Apps! The Most Powerful Update Has Arrived! 🔥 Turn ANY Electron application into a CLI tool! Recombine, script, and extend applications like Antigravity Ultra seamlessly. Now AI can control itself natively. Unlimited possibilities await!
explore discovers APIs, synthesize generates adapters, cascade finds auth strategies.opencli setup auto-discovers tokens; opencli doctor diagnoses config across 10+ tools; --fix repairs them all..ts or .yaml adapters into the clis/ folder for auto-registration.⚠️ Important: Browser commands reuse your Chrome login session. You must be logged into the target website in Chrome before running commands. If you get empty data or errors, check your login status first.
OpenCLI connects to your browser through a lightweight Browser Bridge Chrome Extension + micro-daemon (zero config, auto-start).

opencli doctorfor ongoing diagnosis:opencli doctor # Check extension + daemon connectivity opencli doctor --live # Also test live browser commands
npm install -g @jackwener/opencli
Then use directly:
opencli list # See all commands
opencli list -f yaml # List commands as YAML
opencli hackernews top --limit 5 # Public API, no browser
opencli bilibili hot --limit 5 # Browser command
opencli zhihu hot -f json # JSON output
opencli zhihu hot -f yaml # YAML output
git clone git@github.com:jackwener/opencli.git
cd opencli
npm install
npm run build
npm link # Link binary globally
opencli list # Now you can use it anywhere!
npm install -g @jackwener/opencli@latest

OpenCLI supports downloading images, videos, and articles from supported platforms.
| Platform | Content Types | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| xiaohongshu | Images, Videos | Downloads all media from a note |
| bilibili | Videos | Requires yt-dlp installed |
| Images, Videos | Downloads from user media tab or single tweet | |
| zhihu | Articles (Markdown) | Exports articles with optional image download |
For video downloads from streaming platforms, you need to install yt-dlp:
# Install yt-dlp
pip install yt-dlp
# or
brew install yt-dlp
# Download images/videos from Xiaohongshu note
opencli xiaohongshu download --note-id abc123 --output ./xhs
# Download Bilibili video (requires yt-dlp)
opencli bilibili download --bvid BV1xxx --output ./bilibili
opencli bilibili download --bvid BV1xxx --quality 1080p # Specify quality
# Download Twitter media from user
opencli twitter download --username elonmusk --limit 20 --output ./twitter
# Download single tweet media
opencli twitter download --tweet-url "https://x.com/user/status/123" --output ./twitter
# Export Zhihu article to Markdown
opencli zhihu download --url "https://zhuanlan.zhihu.com/p/xxx" --output ./zhihu
# Export with local images
opencli zhihu download --url "https://zhuanlan.zhihu.com/p/xxx" --download-images
The download step can be used in YAML pipelines:
pipeline:
- fetch: https://api.example.com/media
- download:
url: ${{ item.imageUrl }}
dir: ./downloads
filename: ${{ item.title | sanitize }}.jpg
concurrency: 5
skip_existing: true
All built-in commands support --format / -f with table, json, yaml, md, and csv.
The list command supports the same format options, and keeps --json for backward compatibility.
opencli list -f yaml # Command registry as YAML
opencli bilibili hot -f table # Default: rich terminal table
opencli bilibili hot -f json # JSON (pipe to jq or LLMs)
opencli bilibili hot -f yaml # YAML (human-readable structured output)
opencli bilibili hot -f md # Markdown
opencli bilibili hot -f csv # CSV
opencli bilibili hot -v # Verbose: show pipeline debug steps
If you are an AI assistant tasked with creating a new command adapter for opencli, please follow the AI Agent workflow below:
Quick mode: To generate a single command for a specific page URL, see CLI-ONESHOT.md — just a URL + one-line goal, 4 steps done.
Full mode: Before writing any adapter code, read CLI-EXPLORER.md. It contains the complete browser exploration workflow, the 5-tier authentication strategy decision tree, and debugging guide.
# 1. Deep Explore — discover APIs, infer capabilities, detect framework
opencli explore https://example.com --site mysite
# 2. Synthesize — generate YAML adapters from explore artifacts
opencli synthesize mysite
# 3. Generate — one-shot: explore → synthesize → register
opencli generate https://example.com --goal "hot"
# 4. Strategy Cascade — auto-probe: PUBLIC → COOKIE → HEADER
opencli cascade https://api.example.com/data
Explore outputs to .opencli/explore/<site>/ (manifest.json, endpoints.json, capabilities.json, auth.json).
See TESTING.md for the full testing guide, including:
