OpenCLI
Make any website your CLI. Reuse Chrome login, zero risk, AI-powered discovery.
[!CAUTION] AI Agent 必读:创建或修改任何适配器之前,你必须先阅读 CLI-EXPLORER.md! 该文档包含完整的 API 发现工作流(必须使用 Playwright MCP Bridge 浏览器探索)、5 级认证策略决策树、平台 SDK 速查表、
tap步骤调试流程、分页 API 模板、级联请求模式、以及常见陷阱。 本文件(SKILL.md)仅提供命令参考和简化模板,不足以正确开发适配器。
Install & Run
# npm global install (recommended)
npm install -g @jackwener/opencli
opencli <command>
# Or from source
cd ~/code/opencli && npm install
npx tsx src/main.ts <command>
# Update to latest
npm update -g @jackwener/opencli
Prerequisites
Browser commands require:
- Chrome browser running (logged into target sites)
- Playwright MCP Bridge extension installed
- Run
opencli setupto auto-discover token and configure all tools
Note: You must be logged into the target website in Chrome before running commands. Tabs opened during command execution are auto-closed afterwards.
Public API commands (hackernews, github search, v2ex) need no browser.

# Strategy Cascade: auto-probe PUBLIC → COOKIE → HEADER
opencli cascade <api-url>
# Explore with interactive fuzzing (click buttons to trigger lazy APIs)
opencli explore <url> --auto --click "字幕,CC,评论"

opencli verify
Output Formats
All built-in commands support --format / -f with table, json, yaml, md, and csv.
The list command supports the same formats and also keeps --json as a compatibility alias.
opencli list -f yaml # YAML command registry
opencli bilibili hot -f table # Default: rich table
opencli bilibili hot -f json # JSON (pipe to jq, feed to AI agent)
opencli bilibili hot -f yaml # YAML (readable structured output)
opencli bilibili hot -f md # Markdown
opencli bilibili hot -f csv # CSV
Verbose Mode
opencli bilibili hot -v # Show each pipeline step and data flow
Creating Adapters
[!TIP] 快速模式:如果你只想为一个具体页面生成一个命令,直接看 CLI-ONESHOT.md。 只需要一个 URL + 一句话描述,4 步搞定。
[!IMPORTANT] 完整模式 — 在写任何代码之前,先阅读 CLI-EXPLORER.md。 它包含:① AI Agent 浏览器探索工作流(必须用 Playwright MCP 抓包验证 API)② 认证策略决策树 ③ 平台 SDK(如 Bilibili 的
apiGet/fetchJson)④ YAML vs TS 选择指南 ⑤tap步骤调试方法 ⑥ 级联请求模板 ⑦ 常见陷阱表。 下方仅为简化模板参考,直接使用极易踩坑。
YAML Pipeline (declarative, recommended)
Create src/clis/<site>/<name>.yaml:
site: mysite
name: hot
description: Hot topics
domain: www.mysite.com
strategy: cookie # public | cookie | header | intercept | ui
browser: true
args:
limit:
type: int
default: 20
description: Number of items
pipeline:
- navigate: https://www.mysite.com
- evaluate: |
(async () => {
const res = await fetch('/api/hot', { credentials: 'include' });
const d = await res.json();
return d.data.items.map(item => ({
title: item.title,
score: item.score,
}));
})()
- map:
rank: ${{ index + 1 }}
title: ${{ item.title }}
score: ${{ item.score }}
- limit: ${{ args.limit }}
columns: [rank, title, score]
For public APIs (no browser):
strategy: public
browser: false
pipeline:
- fetch:
url: https://api.example.com/hot.json
- select: data.items
- map:
title: ${{ item.title }}
- limit: ${{ args.limit }}
TypeScript Adapter (programmatic)
Create src/clis/<site>/<name>.ts. It will be automatically dynamically loaded (DO NOT manually import it in index.ts):
import { cli, Strategy } from '../../registry.js';
cli({
site: 'mysite',
name: 'search',
strategy: Strategy.INTERCEPT, // Or COOKIE
args: [{ name: 'keyword', required: true }],
columns: ['rank', 'title', 'url'],
func: async (page, kwargs) => {
await page.goto('https://www.mysite.com/search');
// Inject native XHR/Fetch interceptor hook
await page.installInterceptor('/api/search');
// Auto scroll down to trigger lazy loading
await page.autoScroll({ times: 3, delayMs: 2000 });
// Retrieve intercepted JSON payloads
const requests = await page.getInterceptedRequests();
let results = [];
for (const req of requests) {
results.push(...req.data.items);
}
return results.map((item, i) => ({
rank: i + 1, title: item.title, url: item.url,
}));
},
});
When to use TS: XHR interception (page.installInterceptor), infinite scrolling (page.autoScroll), cookie extraction, complex data transforms (like GraphQL unwrapping).
Pipeline Steps
| Step | Description | Example |
|---|---|---|
navigate | Go to URL | navigate: https://example.com |
fetch | HTTP request (browser cookies) | fetch: { url: "...", params: { q: "..." } } |
evaluate | Run JavaScript in page | evaluate: | (async () => { ... })() |
select | Extract JSON path | select: data.items |
map | Map fields | map: { title: "${{ item.title }}" } |
filter | Filter items | filter: item.score > 100 |
sort | Sort items | sort: { by: score, order: desc } |
limit | Cap result count | limit: ${{ args.limit }} |
intercept | Declarative XHR capture | intercept: { trigger: "navigate:...", capture: "api/hot" } |
tap | Store action + XHR capture | tap: { store: "feed", action: "fetchFeeds", capture: "homefeed" } |
snapshot | Page accessibility tree | snapshot: { interactive: true } |
click | Click element | click: ${{ ref }} |
type | Type text | type: { ref: "@1", text: "hello" } |
wait | Wait for time/text | wait: 2 or wait: { text: "loaded" } |
press | Press key | press: Enter |
Template Syntax
# Arguments with defaults
${{ args.keyword }}
${{ args.limit | default(20) }}
# Current item (in map/filter)
${{ item.title }}
${{ item.data.nested.field }}
# Index (0-based)
${{ index }}
${{ index + 1 }}
5-Tier Authentication Strategy
| Tier | Name | Method | Example |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | public | No auth, Node.js fetch | Hacker News, V2EX |
| 2 | cookie | Browser fetch with credentials: include | Bilibili, Zhihu |
| 3 | header | Custom headers (ct0, Bearer) | Twitter GraphQL |
| 4 | intercept | XHR interception + store mutation | 小红书 Pinia |
| 5 | ui | Full UI automation (click/type/scroll) | Last resort |
Environment Variables
| Variable | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|
OPENCLI_BROWSER_CONNECT_TIMEOUT | 30 | Browser connection timeout (sec) |
OPENCLI_BROWSER_COMMAND_TIMEOUT | 45 | Command execution timeout (sec) |
OPENCLI_BROWSER_EXPLORE_TIMEOUT | 120 | Explore timeout (sec) |
PLAYWRIGHT_MCP_EXTENSION_TOKEN | — | Auto-approve extension connection |
Troubleshooting
| Issue | Solution |
|---|---|
npx not found | Install Node.js: brew install node |
Timed out connecting to browser | 1) Chrome must be open 2) Install MCP Bridge extension and configure token |
Target page context error | Add navigate: step before evaluate: in YAML |
| Empty table data | Check if evaluate returns JSON string (MCP parsing) or data path is wrong |
