CLI

Overview

@ruah-dev/cli is the unified entry point for the ruah toolchain. Install one package and ruah <tool> routes to whatever is installed — or to a sibling checkout in this workspace.

pnpm add -g @ruah-dev/cli

Namespace Architecture

The CLI routes ruah <namespace> to each package's "ruah" field:

ruah                    ← top-level router
├── ruah guard|verify|opt|watch|eval|conv|orch
├── ruah task ...       ← shorthand for orch task
├── ruah workflow ...   ← shorthand for orch workflow
└── ruah doctor         ← repo / workspace health (runs before orch shortcuts)

Shorthand works because orch commands are used most frequently. You can always use the explicit namespace if you prefer clarity.

.ruahrc

  "workspace": { "backend": "worktree" },
  "artifacts": { "capture": true },
  "compatibility": { "check": true },
  "defaults": { "executor": "claude-code" }
}
