CLI overview

i18nprune is a Node 18+ ESM CLI built with Commander. The entry point is packages/cli/bin/cli.ts, compiled to dist/cli.js.

Global behaviour

Argv is passed through preprocessArgv (packages/cli/src/argv/index.ts) before Commander parses it.
preAction on the root command:
- Resolves setConfigPath, ensureConfigPathResolved (duplicate config files), setRunOptions, setCliGlobalOverrides, clears context cache.
- Does not create a config file: use i18nprune init when i18nprune.project.config_file_missing applies.
RunOptions (json, quiet, silent) is the process-wide verbosity contract; commands read it via getRunOptions() or resolveContext().run. There is no separate JSON envelope flag: when JSON is emitted, it always uses the envelope shape documented under JSON output (--json).

Use the canonical command name (e.g. generate, validate, languages). There are no short Commander aliases (gen, val, …).

The languages command accepts the positional alias langs (i18nprune langs). It does not load project config.

Flag	Long	Role
`-V`	—	Run `version` subcommand
`-v`	`--verbose`	Command-scoped verbose mode (currently `share view`)
`-q`	`--quiet`	Less noise (see verbosity)
`-s`	`--silent`	Stricter suppression
—	`--no-color`	Plain text (also when `NO_COLOR` is set)
—	`--no-log-channel`	Omit `[info]` / `[warn]` tags on human lines
—	`--no-log-prefix`	Omit `[i18nprune]` prefix on human lines
`-h`	`--help`	Help (Commander default)
`-c`	`--config`	Path to a single `i18nprune` config file

Other global options use --long only (--json, --yes, --source, …) besides -c / --config and -V.
