When to use this skill

ALWAYS use this skill when the user mentions:

CLI arguments for a Tauri application
Schema-based argument parsing at app launch
Routing CLI commands to app behavior or windows

Trigger phrases include:

"cli", "arguments", "command line", "schema", "command routing", "cli plugin"

How to use this skill

Install the CLI plugin:

cargo add tauri-plugin-cli

Define the CLI schema in

tauri.conf.json

{
  "plugins": {
    "cli": {
      "description": "My Tauri App",
      "args": [
        { "name": "input", "short": "i", "takesValue": true, "description": "Input file path" }
      ],
      "subcommands": {
        "open": { "description": "Open a specific view", "args": [] }
      }
    }
  }
}

Register the plugin in your Tauri builder:

tauri::Builder::default()
    .plugin(tauri_plugin_cli::init())

Handle CLI matches on the frontend:

import { getMatches } from '@tauri-apps/plugin-cli';
const matches = await getMatches();
if (matches.args.input?.value) {
  console.log('Input file:', matches.args.input.value);
}

Combine with single-instance plugin to forward second-launch arguments to the running instance
Configure capabilities:
```
"cli:default"
```

Outputs

CLI argument schema in tauri.conf.json
Frontend argument parsing and routing logic
Second-launch argument forwarding pattern
