Spark CLI
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.
