climate "CLI Mate": a CLI library that autogenerates CLIs from structs / functions with support for nested subcommands, global / local flags, help generation from godocs, typo suggestions, shell completion and more
mage being a build tool and climate being a CLI library, a direct comparison probably doesn't make much sense but their parsing (https://github.com/magefile/mage/blob/master/parse/parse.go) seems very similar to what I'm doing for metadata (param names / godocs / comments etc.).

Is your makefile supposed to be a justfile?

Anyone else doing compiler work in Golang?
https://github.com/magefile/mage but I haven't tried it as am not a fun of make like tools.

Do we have a package.json/scripts section alternative in Golang?
I prefer https://github.com/magefile/mage

//go:generate with ENV variables?
Try github.com/magefile/mage - it's written in Go and lets you write Go to run scripts rather than writing bash inside yaml ;)

Mage v1.13 is released - now supports magefiles in a subdir
Mage v1.13 was released as of yesterday. This included a few small fixes, and a big new feature - subdirectory support.

Thanks, do take it for a spin and file any issues at https://github.com/avamsi/climate/issues!
- climate: a Golang CLI library inspired by python-fire and powered by Cobra -- autogenerates CLIs from structs / functions with support for nested subcommands, global/local flags, help generation, typo suggestions, shell completion and more

I built my first CLI tool
I see you're using Cobra -- https://github.com/avamsi/clifr offers most of the goodness of Cobra (Clifr uses Cobra under the hood) with a much simpler "API" IMO (you just write a struct and Clifr handles the rest). Feel free to give it a try and file issues if there's anything you see missing from Cobra etc.
