The CLI is SelfTune’s operational API. The agent skill and Desktop app use the same runtime. Use it directly when you need repeatable automation, structured output, or an environment without a desktop session.

​
Run without a global install

Examples in the reference use selftune. Prefix them with npx selftune@latest when no executable is installed on PATH.

​
Start with intent-level commands

Use --json when a command supports it and another program or agent will consume the result. Treat low-level evolution, evaluation, and orchestration commands as debugging or expert surfaces rather than the default workflow.

​
Automation rules

  • Pin or record the SelfTune version used by CI.
  • Run previews before commands that can write a skill.
  • Separate local analysis from remote upload.
  • Preserve artifacts and exit output needed to reproduce a decision.
  • Do not store Cloud or Remote Library tokens in command history or source.
See the CLI reference for command-level documentation.
