Spark CLI
A CLI tool for daily dev automation and AI skill integration.
Why Spark? Deterministic tasks (file scaffolding, mirror switching, config management) can be automated by CLI to save token cost. Spark also provides a CLI app backend for AI skills — so agents can call spark instead of burning LLM tokens on repetitive operations.
Most code is AI-generated, all inspired by real daily workflows.

Build
make build # Build + install to ~/.local/bin/spark
make verify-install # Compare ~/.local/bin/spark sha256 against source
make build-linux # Cross-compile Linux amd64
make build-darwin # Cross-compile macOS amd64
make test # Run all unit tests
make test-bdd # BDD-style tests (Ginkgo)
make lint # Static analysis (go vet)
make clean # Remove binary
验证安装的二进制确实是最新的:
spark version # -> spark v0.3.2 / commit 1ef84d7 / build date ...
spark --version # -> spark version v0.3.2
Run a single test:
go test ./internal/git/... -v -run TestFunctionName
