TAC CLI — Think. Architect. Code.

Standalone AI coding CLI with pipeline-driven development. Not a prompt framework — a real runtime.

tac2 build "feature"     # Smart build (skips Q&A if clear)
tac2 think "idea"        # Explore only (ASK + DESIGN)
tac2 go                  # Resume from checkpoint
tac2 ship                # Safety + review + PR
tac2 settings            # Configure AI provider + API key
tac2 dashboard           # Live progress TUI
tac2 status              # Current progress
