Show HN: I built a tool that turns any API into a CLI for agents

TLDR; I built a tool that turns any API into a CLI designed for ai agents

---

Got tired of dealing with bloated context windows from MCP servers and skills that stuff entire API docs into the agent's context

CLIs fix this, agents run a single command to self-discover everything an API has to offer

So, built a tool to generate them for any api. All CLIs are written in Go, fast and lightweight, no dependencies

Help text (via the --help flag) is the killer feature: all context for each command/endpoint/parameter is extracted directly from the user-facing API docs and enhanced with llms. It's bundled directly with the CLI and agents fetch only what they need at runtime. No context overhead, no fumbled API calls.

Most APIs don't have a CLI yet. Can have Opus one-shot simple ones, but building a great one with cross-platform binaries, install scripts, detailed help text, and auto-updates takes time and is frustrating to repeat for every API. Maintaining it the API grows is a headache

Give InstantCLI any API docs url and it generates a production-ready CLI in minutes. It includes binaries + install scripts for all platforms, auto-updates as your API changes, docs-enhanced help text designed for agents, and hosting

Show HN: Logira – eBPF runtime auditing for AI agent runs

I started using Claude Code (claude --dangerously-skip-permissions) and Codex (codex --yolo) and realized I had no reliable way to know what they actually did. The agent's own output tells you a story, but it's the agent's story.

logira records exec, file, and network events at the OS level via eBPF, scoped per run. Events are saved locally in JSONL and SQLite. It ships with default detection rules for credential access, persistence changes, suspicious exec patterns, and more. Observe-only – it never blocks.
