CLI

@mcut/cli operates on mcut project JSON files. It is for project document workflows that can run outside the browser.

bunx @mcut/cli --help

Commands

bunx @mcut/cli validate project.mcut.json
bunx @mcut/cli summarize project.mcut.json

Apply a command batch from a file:

bunx @mcut/cli apply project.mcut.json commands.json

Preview a command batch without saving:

bunx @mcut/cli apply project.mcut.json commands.json --dry-run

The CLI exposes the same command registry that the MCP server uses.

bunx @mcut/cli commands
bunx @mcut/cli commands --json
bunx @mcut/cli commands --name addElement

Use those schemas as the source of truth for low-level command payloads.
