Project mention: Ask HN: What are your favorite CLIs to use as LLM tools? | news.ycombinator.com | 2026-06-25
I've recently been getting into building out skills for agentic coding. The two main ones I have built out are using the jira CLI[0] and the gitlab CLI[1]. Both work well for what I want to use them for (interacting with issues and with MRs).
What have been the CLIs that you have found to be the most useful to use with agents? Have you found any that an agent has been able to compose in interesting ways?

bookmarks
:warning: Mirrored from https://gitea.zoemp.be/sansguidon/bookmarks ! :bookmark: +5K awesome resources for geeks and software crafters :beer: (by SansGuidon)
I still need to go back working on https://www.cinekids.info/ , a tool I made for myself to use before showing any movie to my 4 years old kiddo. It scrapes reviews from some parent friendly movie reviews websites and aggregates them.
I'm also automating more stuff around bookmarks management -> I used to manage an awesome list as a repository on GitHub for myself and over a couple of years there are relatively many stars on this repository. However I lost interest in maintaining this repo manually as I prefer to save my bookmarks on Shaarli. I'm coding a CLI tool to automate the work of syncing my shaarli links to my public "popular" (+500 stars) repo at https://github.com/SansGuidon/bookmarks
Myself and other users complain a lot about the "native" Plex -> Ombi watchlist integration being broken, I coded some sync tool to workaround the app malfunctions, by using Ombi, Plex and TMDB (The Movie Database) APIs and ensure Ombi is always up-to-date based on Plex watchlist. This works very well and allowed me to put a stop to the complains from my family members :-D
I'm also automating most of my email/linkedin interactions thanks to userscripts.

Hi HN, I built WakaTime 13 years ago before AI. Things have changed a lot since then, and the time you spend typing in your IDE isn't as valuable as it used to be...
That's why I built a new WakaTime dashboard specifically for AI metrics. It tracks things like:
* Lines of code - AI vs. Human
* Average Prompt Length over time - How much context do you give AI
* Follow-up Edit Rate - How many times do you have to edit/fix the code AI generated
* Token usage over time - Input and Output tokens
It does this for most popular agents (Cursor, Claude, Codex, Copilot, Gemini, etc.)
If you already use WakaTime plugins, you should have AI data since last week. If not, install one of the WakaTime official plugins (https://wakatime.com/plugins) then edit your ~/.wakatime/wakatime-internal.cfg to change the ai_heartbeats_last_parsed_at to some date in the past and it will backfill your AI stats since that date. By default it only backfills a few minutes from plugin install.
Let me know what u think!
