Output Formats

All commands support dual output modes:

  • Human-readable (default): Tables, colors, formatted text

# Human output
cli-anything-anygen project info -p project.json

# JSON output for agents
cli-anything-anygen --json project info -p project.json

For AI Agents

When using this CLI programmatically:

  1. Always use --json flag for parseable output
  2. Check return codes - 0 for success, non-zero for errors
  3. Parse stderr for error messages on failure
  4. Use absolute paths for all file operations
  5. Verify outputs exist after export operations
