CLI distribution package

This package ships the Node CLI adapter for the server-side command endpoint. The public npm package is @rosthq/cli; it installs the rost binary through the package bin entry.

Build

pnpm --filter cli build
node apps/cli/dist/index.js --help
pnpm --filter cli pack:dry-run
pnpm --filter cli publish:npm:dry-run

pnpm --filter cli build emits dist/index.js with a Node shebang and executable mode for npm and npx. pnpm --filter cli build:binary uses bun build --compile for the no-Node release binary in dist-bin/; pkg is the documented fallback if Bun cannot compile a supported target.

Public Node install

After the company-owned npm org owns the @rost scope and this package is published publicly, these commands become the user-facing install path:

npx @rosthq/cli@latest login
npx @rosthq/cli@latest mcp install --client claude-code
npx @rosthq/cli@latest mcp install --client codex
npm i -g @rosthq/cli
rost login
rost mcp install --client claude-code

Node does not have a separate registry to register with. npx and npm i -g resolve from registry.npmjs.org, so npm publish --access public is the public registration step.

Reference corpus

The CLI includes the public implementation reference corpus for local agents and operators:

rost reference list
rost reference search "agent tools"
rost reference get agent-reference-map
pnpm --filter @rosthq/cli dev -- reference get agent-reference-map
