Uni-CLI

Active·★ 235·Apache-2.0·Updated 2026-10-18

Uni-CLI is a command-line tool that lets agents search by intent and execute governed commands across websites, apps, local tools, and system capabilities. It returns structured AgentEnvelopes with evidence for agent inspection and repair. The tool supports self-repair, MCP/ACP protocols, and local computer control.

Uni-CLI sits in the Browser Automation category, so it is usually better judged by workflow fit, deployment style, and team needs than by isolated features alone. Based on the available metadata, it leans most clearly toward Search by intent across hundreds of sites. A representative use case is Search Hacker News frontpage and fetch top stories. The listed license is Apache-2.0. GitHub stars are currently 235. Relevant tags include agent-infrastructure, ai-agents.

This write-up is based on the project's README and public repository data. We have not hand-tested the tool.
