Versions:
Copy4AI CLI, published by Copy4AI and currently at version 1.2.0, is a single-binary terminal tool designed for installing Copy4AI architectures and workflows directly into a project from the command line. It belongs to the developer tools category, specifically command-line utilities for scaffolding and project setup, and serves as a companion to the Copy4AI VSCode Extension, sharing the same authentication and project model so that users can move between the two environments without reconfiguring their accounts. Its primary purpose is one-command project setup: instead of manually assembling architectures and workflows, a developer can invoke a single command to install everything a project needs, reducing setup time and the risk of inconsistent configurations. This makes the tool particularly useful for onboarding new team members, initializing fresh repositories, and standardizing how teams structure projects built on Copy4AI assets. Authentication is handled through OAuth login, with the resulting token stored securely in the operating system's keychain rather than in plain-text files, supporting secure access without repeated manual credential entry. A key capability is SHA-locked installs, which pin each install to a specific content hash and produce reproducible scaffolds across teammates, ensuring that every developer on a project works from identical architectures and workflows. The tool is also CI-friendly, offering a --json output mode for machine-readable results and supporting a COPY4AI_TOKEN environment variable, so automated pipelines can authenticate and install assets without interactive login. Maintenance is simplified through self-updating via the `copy4ai update` command, keeping the binary current without manual downloads. Only one version, 1.2.0, is currently listed, representing the initial published release of the utility. Together, these features position Copy4AI CLI as a practical bridge between Copy4AI's architecture ecosystem and everyday terminal-based development and automation workflows.
