Which packages do you recommend for building cli tools?
https://github.com/jessevdk/go-flags provides a pretty neat way to specify flags and handle commands. Not so much extensible as cobra, but good enough for small cli tools

Show HN: New set of Go libraries for CLI Development
flags aims to merge the concepts from https://github.com/jessevdk/go-flags, and https://github.com/octago/sflags, both relying on struct tags to define CLI command specs. The flags library uses these underlying concepts to produce complete `cobra.Command` trees, and brings many comfort-of-life improvements for the generated applications/commands.

Eclipse: python-fire inspired library to simplify creating CLIs in Go, on top of Cobra
Not speaking for OP, but my experience with it is that it was overkill for my own needs. I went with go-flags.
See https://github.com/jessevdk/go-flags for another popular way to do this that aligns with your ideas.
Yeah, I just didn't need the command-subcommand scheme. I used the go-flags test file for examples: https://github.com/jessevdk/go-flags/blob/master/example_test.go

Golang - Writing CLI App in Golang with Cobra
There are alternatives available for Cobra as well i.e. mitchellh/cli, go-flags, urfave/cli etc.

Question: Custom argument parsing with flag ?
Nice to find that golang has this tool (I found only argparse adaptation https://github.com/akamensky/argparse). For me, as newcomer, flag is soooo basic. The reason why I still stick with it, because standard approach is more important for my use case, which is one layer upper than single language best parser. I am doing the same thing for various languages to make argument parsing be as easy as configuration change (if you are curious see https://github.com/ashlander/protoargs). That does not exclude potential Kong usage as an alternative backend at some point
- akamensky/argparse: Argparse for Golang. Just because "flag" sucks!
What are some alternatives?
cobra - A Commander for modern Go CLI interactions
kingpin - CONTRIBUTIONS ONLY: A Go (golang) command line and flag parser
go-arg - Struct-based argument parsing in Go
urfave/cli - A simple, fast, and fun package for building command line apps in Go
kong - Kong is a command-line parser for Go
pflag - Drop-in replacement for Go's flag package, implementing POSIX/GNU-style --flags.
mitchellh/cli - A Go library for implementing command-line interfaces.
cli - CLI - A package for building command line app with go
docopt.go - A command-line arguments parser that will make you smile.
flaggy - Idiomatic Go input parsing with subcommands, positional values, and flags at any position. No required project or package layout and no external dependencies.
