Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Clipboard - the missing cut, copy and paste system for the terminal
I like the idea of docopt but looks like it is no longer maintained unfortunately: https://github.com/docopt/docopt/issues/494. However others are carrying it forward at https://github.com/jazzband/docopt-ng

Looking for UX feedback for my encryption/decryption command line utility.
Docopt-ng is a up-to-date fork of Docopt.

To that guy who told me about argparse
Note, the python source of docopt seems to have been effectively abandoned, so a better bet these days might be docopt-ng from the jazzband coop

Docopt
Just FYI, the docopt package isn't updated anymore and the maintainer doesn't answer any inquiries. There are some annoying bugs one runs into when using the official docopt package. So I recommend using docopt-ng instead: https://github.com/jazzband/docopt-ng

Building a Command Line Tool with PHP and Symfony Console
Symfony Console closely follows the well-established docopt conventions. Docopt, based on longstanding conventions from help messages and man pages, ensures a consistent and intuitive interface for describing a program's interface. Symfony Console's adherence to docopt conventions guarantees that your command line tools maintain a standardized and predictable user experience, simplifying development and user interaction.

CLI user experience case study
You probably already know, but just in case you don't, you might read about http://docopt.org/ It seems to me a lot of your usage ideas could be refinements of / tooling around docopt-style interfaces.

Gooey: Turn almost any Python command line program into a full GUI application

Not quite what you asked for, but close: type example invocations to generate the CLI, and just pull the arguments from a dictionary at runtime.

Things I've learned about building CLI tools in Python
I've been using docopt to handle CLI arguments for years now.

What's up, Python? The GIL removed, a new compiler, optparse deprecated
If you aren't averse to using a third party package, on my personal projects I always found https://github.com/docopt/docopt to be nice.
You can kill 2 birds with one stone by documenting your scripts while also providing the argument structure / parsing.

adaszko/complgen: Generate {bash,fish,zsh} completions from a single EBNF-like grammar
As for the implementation differences, complgen uses a trivial DSL that’s everybody is already familiar with more or less because it’s a slightly more rigorous version of what tools usually spit out when you do command --help (projects like docopt even use that for command line arguments parsing). Those happen to be regular languages and therefore can be represented as a Deterministic Finite Automata. complgen compiles the grammars to DFAs, minimizes the DFA and spits out shell-specific shell completions scripts that simply walk the DFA to match and complete the current input.

[Media] shrs: a shell that is configurable and extensible in rust
The current completion system has a list of rules of which completions to use at which time. It's purposely simple to make it as flexible as possible. The current things I'm planning is a derive macro like what clap has to generate these rules. I'm also considering introducing a plugin that let's you write rules in the format of docopt

Docopt.sh – Command-Line Argument Parser for Bash 3.2, 4, and 5
For anyone unfamiliar, docopt is an established standard for specifying arguments in a script’s doc string. I use it for Python and it’s lovely. You’re going to write a docstring with examples anyway, why not make them functional?

I am sick of writing argparse boilerplate code, so I made "duckargs" to do it for me
I like http://docopt.org/ a lot. You seem like someone who might have opinions on that.
