CLI for terminal case opening experiments
Project description
cmd_case_open
A CLI project that simulates Counter-Strike–style case openings directly in your terminal.
Open cases, reveal randomized items with rarity tiers, and track your inventory all from your shell.
Demo
Features
- Counter-Strike–inspired case opening system
- Rarity-based item generation
- Persistent inventory + stats tracking
- Shell-integrated commands (run after any terminal command)
- Supports Zsh and PowerShell
Installation
You can install cmd_case_open in two ways:
Option 1: Install via pip (Recommended)
pip install <project-link>
Then initialize the CLI:
cmd-case-open
During setup:
- Your shell configuration (
.zshrcor PowerShell profile) will be automatically updated - You will be prompted to restart your terminal
After restarting, the CLI is fully active.
Option 2: Install from source (Git clone)
Clone the repository:
git clone https://github.com/ShravanPH/CSCLI.git
cd CSCLI
Install locally in editable mode:
pip install -e .
Run setup:
cmd-case-open
Restart your terminal when prompted.
How It Works
After installation and terminal restart:
Every time you run a command in your terminal, you’ll be given the option to:
case-reveal # Open a case
case-reveal-stats # View your inventory + stats
This behavior is powered by shell hooks that are automatically added to:
~/.zshrc(Zsh)- PowerShell profile (Windows)
Shell Integration
The CLI modifies your shell configuration to inject its behavior.
- The startup + execution logic lives inside your shell config files
- This controls when
cmd-case-openis triggered
Customization
If you want to tweak behavior (frequency, triggers, etc.), you can edit:
~/.zshrc- PowerShell profile
Project Structure
CSCLI/
Contains the core logic for:
- Case randomization
- Item rarity system
- Rendering output
- Case data definitions
Data Storage
Inventory data is stored locally as JSON Lines:
Primary location:
~/.local/state/cmd_case_open/inventory.jsonl
Fallback:
/tmp/cmd_case_open_state/inventory.jsonl
Each entry includes:
- Timestamp
- Item name
- Rarity
- Rarity key
- Colorized rarity snapshot
Commands
Setup
cmd-case-open
Runtime Commands
case-reveal
case-reveal-stats
Supported Shells
- Zsh
- PowerShell
Notes
- First run modifies your shell config automatically
- A terminal restart is required after installation
- Behavior is shell-driven — not a continuously running process
Future Improvements (Ideas)
- More cases and skins
- Inventory UI improvements
- Drop rate customization
