Usage

import clipy


@clipy.App(usage="mypackage <command> [options] [arg] ...", description="A CLI app")
@clipy.Option("option1", help="A global option")
@clipy.Command("command1", usage="mypackage command1 [options] [arg] ...", description="A descritpion", options=[
    clipy.Option("option2", help="Help message"),
    clipy.Option("flag", help="Help message", action="store_true")
])
@clipy.Command("command2", usage="mypackage command2 [options] [arg] ...", description="A descritpion", options=[
    clipy.Option("option3", help="Help message", required=True)
])
def main(command: clipy.CommandDefinition):
    print(f"Command: {command.name}")
    print("Options:")
    for key, value in command.options.items():
        print(f"  {key}: {value}")

if __name__ == "__main__":
    main()  # pylint: disable=missing-kwoa

Then enjoy your CLI tool:
