cli-anything-mubu

Canonical packaged entrypoint for the Mubu live bridge.

Installation

This CLI is packaged from the canonical

agent-harness
source tree:

pip install -e .

Prerequisites:

  • Python 3.10+
  • An active Mubu desktop session on this machine
  • Local Mubu profile data available to the CLI
  • Set
    MUBU_DAILY_FOLDER
    if you want no-argument daily helpers

Entry Points

cli-anything-mubu
python -m cli_anything.mubu

When invoked without a subcommand, the CLI enters an interactive REPL session.

Command Groups

Discover

Discovery commands for folders, documents, recency, and daily-document resolution.

CommandDescription

Mutate

Mutation commands for dry-run-first atomic live edits against the Mubu API.

CommandDescription

create-child
| Build or execute one child-node creation against the live Mubu API. |

|

delete-node
| Build or execute one node deletion against the live Mubu API. |

Session

Session and state commands for current document/node context and local command history.

CommandDescription

|

status
| Show the current session state. |

|

state-path
| Show the session state file path. |

|

use-doc
| Persist the current document reference. |

|

use-node
| Persist the current node reference. |

|

use-daily
| Resolve and persist the current daily document reference. |

|

clear-doc
| Clear the current document reference. |

|

clear-node
| Clear the current node reference. |

|

history
| Show recent command history stored in session state. |

Recommended Agent Workflow

discover daily-current '<daily-folder-ref>' --json
        ->
inspect daily-nodes '<daily-folder-ref>' --query '<anchor>' --json
        ->
session use-doc '<doc_path>'
        ->
mutate update-text / create-child / delete-node --json
        ->
--execute only after payload inspection

Safety Rules

  1. Prefer grouped commands for agent use; flat legacy commands remain for compatibility.
  2. Use
    --json
    whenever an agent will parse the output.
  3. Prefer
    discover
    or
    inspect
    commands before any
    mutate
    command.
  4. Live mutations are dry-run by default and only execute with
    --execute
    .
  5. Prefer
    --node-id
    and
    --parent-node-id
    over text matching.
  6. delete-node
    removes the full targeted subtree.
  7. Even same-text updates can still advance document version history.
  8. Pass a daily-folder reference explicitly or set
    MUBU_DAILY_FOLDER
    before using no-arg daily helpers.

Examples

Interactive REPL Session

Start an interactive session with persistent document and node context.

cli-anything-mubu
# Enter commands interactively
# Use 'help' to see builtins
# Use session commands to persist current-doc/current-node

Discover Current Daily Note

Resolve the current daily note from an explicit folder reference.

cli-anything-mubu --json discover daily-current '<daily-folder-ref>'

Dry-Run Atomic Update

Inspect the exact outgoing payload before a live mutation.

cli-anything-mubu mutate update-text '<doc-ref>' --node-id <node-id> --text 'new text' --json

Session State

The CLI maintains lightweight session state in JSON:

  • current_doc
  • current_node
  • local command history

Use the

session
command group to inspect or update this state.

For AI Agents

  1. Start with
    discover
    or
    inspect
    , not
    mutate
    .
  2. Use
    session status --json
    to recover persisted context.
  3. Use grouped commands in generated prompts and automation.
  4. Verify postconditions after any live mutation.
  5. Read the package
    TEST.md
    and
    README.md
    when stricter operational detail is needed.
