Grace-marketplace grace-cli

Operate the optional `grace` CLI against a GRACE project. Use when you want to lint GRACE artifacts, explain/remediate lint issues, check autonomy readiness, inspect project or module health, inspect verification entries, resolve modules from names or file paths, inspect shared/public module context, or inspect file-local/private markup through `grace lint`, `grace status`, `grace module`, `grace verification`, and `grace file show`.

source content

Use the optional

grace
CLI as a fast GRACE-aware read/query layer.

Prerequisites

  • The
    grace
    binary must be installed and available on
    PATH
  • The target repository should already use GRACE artifacts and markup
  • Prefer
    --path <project-root>
    unless you are already in the project root

If the CLI is missing, or the repository is not a GRACE project, say so and fall back to reading the relevant docs and code directly.

Choose the Right Command

  • grace lint --path <project-root>
    Use for a fast integrity snapshot across semantic markup, XML artifacts, and export/map drift.
  • grace lint --profile autonomous --path <project-root>
    Use before long agent runs to verify that operational packets, verification entries, and observable evidence are strong enough for autonomous execution.
  • grace lint --explain <code>
    Use when a lint code appears in CI or review and you want the built-in explanation plus remediation guidance.
  • grace status --path <project-root>
    Use for a one-shot health report: artifact presence, codebase metrics, integrity snapshot, autonomy gate, recent changes, and the next safe action.
  • grace status --with modules --path <project-root>
    Use when you also want per-module health summaries in the same report.
  • grace module find <query> --path <project-root>
    Use to resolve module IDs from names, paths, dependencies, annotations, verification refs, or file-local
    LINKS
    .
  • grace module show <id-or-path> --path <project-root>
    Use to read the shared/public module view from
    development-plan.xml
    ,
    knowledge-graph.xml
    , implementation steps, and linked files.
  • grace module show <id> --with verification --path <project-root>
    Use when you also need the module's verification excerpt.
  • grace module health <id-or-path> --path <project-root>
    Use for one module's implementation coverage, verification health, autonomy readiness, blockers, and next action.
  • grace verification find <query> --path <project-root>
    Use to search verification entries by ID, module, priority, scenarios, test files, log markers, or commands.
  • grace verification show <V-M-id-or-module> --path <project-root>
    Use to read one verification entry with its linked module context.
  • grace file show <path> --path <project-root>
    Use to read file-local/private
    MODULE_CONTRACT
    ,
    MODULE_MAP
    , and
    CHANGE_SUMMARY
    .
  • grace file show <path> --contracts --blocks --path <project-root>
    Use when you also need function/type contracts and semantic block navigation.

Recommended Workflow

  1. Run
    grace status
    when you first need to understand the current project state.
  2. Run
    grace status --with modules
    when project-level health is not enough and you need module summaries.
  3. Run
    grace lint
    when integrity or drift matters.
  4. Run
    grace lint --profile autonomous
    before long autonomous execution.
  5. Run
    grace lint --explain <code>
    when one issue needs targeted remediation guidance.
  6. Run
    grace module find
    to resolve the target module from the user's words, a stack trace, or a changed path.
  7. Run
    grace module show
    ,
    grace module health
    , and
    grace verification show
    for the narrowed shared/public truth.
  8. Run
    grace file show
    for the file-local/private truth.
  9. Read the underlying XML or source files only for the narrowed scope that still needs deeper evidence.

Output Guidance

  • Use default text output for quick review and direct user-facing summaries.
  • Use
    --json
    when another tool, script, or agent step needs machine-readable output.
  • Use
    --fail-on warnings
    or
    --fail-on errors
    when the CLI output should gate CI.
  • Treat CLI output as navigation help, not as a replacement for the real XML and source files when exact evidence is required.

Public/Private Rule

  • grace module show
    is for shared/public module context.
  • grace file show
    is for file-local/private implementation context.
  • If shared docs and file-local markup disagree, call out the drift instead of silently trusting one side.

Important

  • The CLI is a companion to the GRACE skills, not a replacement for them.
  • Prefer this skill when the task is to inspect, navigate, or lint a GRACE project quickly through the CLI.
  • For methodology design, execution planning, refresh, review, or fixes, route to the appropriate
    grace-*
    skill after using the CLI to narrow scope.
