    command_descriptions={"help": "Show help", "exit": "Quit"},
    history_file="~/.friday_history",
    multiline=False,
    enable_auto_suggest=True,
)

# Synchronous input
text = handler.get_input()

    multiline=False,
)

# All Friday commands are pre-loaded for completion
# /help, /history, /entities, /tools, etc.

CommandCompleter

Standalone completer for slash commands.

from friday_cli import CommandCompleter
from prompt_toolkit import PromptSession

completer = CommandCompleter(
    commands=["help", "search", "quit"],

)

session = PromptSession(completer=completer)

Constants

from friday_cli import FRIDAY_COMMANDS, FRIDAY_COMMAND_DESCRIPTIONS

# FRIDAY_COMMANDS: list of all Friday CLI command names
# FRIDAY_COMMAND_DESCRIPTIONS: dict of command -> description

---

Command Registry

Decorator-based command registration with argument parsing, aliasing, and help generation.

CommandRegistry

Registry for CLI commands with dispatch and execution.

from friday_cli import CommandRegistry, arg

registry = CommandRegistry()

@registry.command("greet", aliases=["g", "hello"])
def cmd_greet(ctx, name="World"):
    """Greet someone by name."""
    return f"Hello, {name}!"

@registry.command(
    "export",
    arguments=[arg("format", default="json", choices=["json", "csv"])],
    category="data",
)
async def cmd_export(ctx, format="json"):
    """Export data in the specified format."""
    return f"Exported as {format}"

# Execute commands
was_command, result = await registry.execute("/greet Alice", context)
# was_command=True, result="Hello, Alice!"

was_command, result = await registry.execute("/g Bob", context)
# was_command=True, result="Hello, Bob!" (alias)

was_command, result = await registry.execute("not a command", context)
# was_command=False, result=None

Features:

• Decorator-based registration with @registry.command()
• Programmatic registration with registry.register()
• Command aliases for shortcuts (/h for /history)
• Argument parsing with defaults and choices
• Async and sync command support
• Help text from docstrings
• Category grouping for organized help

arg() Helper

Create argument specifications for commands.

from friday_cli import arg

# Required argument
arg("name", required=True, description="User name")

# Optional with default
arg("format", default="json", choices=["json", "csv", "xml"])

Help Generation

# Get help as dict
help_dict = registry.get_help()
# {"/greet (/g, /hello)": "Greet someone by name.", ...}

# Get help grouped by category
by_category = registry.get_help_by_category()
# {"general": {...}, "data": {...}}

# Get data for InputHandler completion
names, descriptions = registry.get_command_for_completion()

Integration Pattern

class MySession:
    def __init__(self):
        self.registry = CommandRegistry()
        self._register_commands()

    def _register_commands(self):
        self.registry.register("help", self.cmd_help, aliases=["?"])
        self.registry.register("exit", lambda ctx: "EXIT", aliases=["quit"])

    async def handle_input(self, user_input):
        # Try registry first
        was_cmd, result = await self.registry.execute(user_input, self)
        if was_cmd:
            return result

        # Fall back to other handling
        return await self.process_chat(user_input)

---

Session Management

Configuration loading, lifecycle management, and graceful shutdown for CLI applications.

SessionConfig

Configuration container that loads from YAML files and provides typed access.

from friday_cli import SessionConfig, load_config

# Load from YAML file
config = SessionConfig.from_yaml("config.yaml")

# Or create from dict
config = SessionConfig.from_dict({"llm": {"model": "gpt-4"}})

# Typed access to common values
print(config.user_name)        # "User" (default)
print(config.assistant_name)   # "Assistant" (default)
print(config.system_prompt)    # "You are a helpful assistant."
print(config.persist_dir)      # Path or None

# Access any configuration section
print(config.llm["model"])
print(config.memory.get("persist_directory"))

# Nested access with defaults
enabled = config.get_nested("memory", "priming", "enabled", default=True)

Configuration Sections:

• llm - LLM configuration (model, api_key, temperature)
• embedding - Embedding model configuration
• memory - Memory system settings
• chat - Chat display settings (user_name, assistant_name, system_prompt)
• logging - Logging configuration
• extraction - Entity/fact extraction settings
• transcript - Transcript storage settings
• maintenance - Maintenance task settings
• lifecycle - Memory lifecycle settings
• tools - Tool configuration

SessionManager

Async context manager for session lifecycle with signal handling.

from friday_cli import SessionManager, SessionConfig

config = SessionConfig.from_yaml("config.yaml")

# Basic usage
async with SessionManager(config=config) as ctx:
    print(f"User: {ctx.config.user_name}")
    # ctx.session is None without factory

# With session factory
async def create_session(config):
    return MySession(config)

manager = SessionManager(
    config=config,
    session_factory=create_session,
    on_shutdown=lambda ctx: print("Cleaning up..."),
)

async with manager as ctx:
    session = ctx.session  # Created by factory
    # Use session...
# on_shutdown called automatically

Features:

• Async context manager (async with)
• Signal handling (SIGINT, SIGTERM) for graceful shutdown
• Session factory support (sync or async)
• Shutdown callback for cleanup
• Resource management via SessionContext

SessionContext

Container for an active session with its resources.

from friday_cli import SessionContext

# Created by SessionManager
ctx = SessionContext(session=my_session, config=config)

# Store resources for cleanup
ctx.set_resource("db", database_connection)
ctx.set_resource("cache", cache_instance)

# Retrieve resources
db = ctx.get_resource("db")

managed_session

Convenience async context manager for simple cases.

from friday_cli import managed_session

async with managed_session(config_path="config.yaml") as ctx:
    print(f"User: {ctx.config.user_name}")

# Or with config object
async with managed_session(config=config, session_factory=factory) as ctx:
    session = ctx.session

validate_config

Validate configuration and return list of errors.

from friday_cli import SessionConfig, validate_config

config = SessionConfig.from_yaml("config.yaml")

# Default validation (requires llm section with model)
errors = validate_config(config)
if errors:
    for error in errors:
        print(f"Config error: {error}")

# Custom required sections
errors = validate_config(config, required_sections=["llm", "memory"])

Integration Pattern

import asyncio
from friday_cli import SessionManager, SessionConfig, validate_config, display_error

async def main():
    # Load and validate config
    config = SessionConfig.from_yaml("config.yaml")
    errors = validate_config(config, required_sections=["llm"])
    if errors:
        for error in errors:
            display_error(error)
        return

    # Run with session management
    async with SessionManager(
        config=config,
        session_factory=create_my_session,
        on_shutdown=cleanup_resources,
    ) as ctx:
        await run_chat_loop(ctx.session, ctx.config)

if __name__ == "__main__":
    asyncio.run(main())

    display_success("Test passed")

    output = string_io.getvalue()
    assert "Test passed" in output
    assert "✓" in output

    set_console(None)  # Reset

CLI Configuration

Friday CLI supports optional theming via a cli-config.yaml file. If present, it customizes colors, icons, and prompt styling. If absent, sensible defaults are used.

Configuration File Location

Place cli-config.yaml in the same directory as your main config.yaml:

your-project/
├── config.yaml          # Main application config
└── cli-config.yaml      # Optional CLI theming

Loading Configuration

from friday_cli import load_cli_config, reset_console

# Load CLI config (looks for cli-config.yaml next to config.yaml)
load_cli_config("path/to/config.yaml")
reset_console()  # Rebuild console with new theme

Configuration Options

# cli-config.yaml

# Theme colors (Rich style format)
theme:
  error: "bold red"
  warning: "bold yellow"
  success: "bold green"
  info: "bold blue"
  muted: "dim"
  highlight: "bold cyan"

# Status message icons
icons:
  error: "✗"      # or "[X]" for ASCII
  warning: "⚠"    # or "[!]" for ASCII
  success: "✓"    # or "[OK]" for ASCII
  info: "ℹ"       # or "[i]" for ASCII

# Input prompt styling
prompt:
  style: "bold cyan"
  name_style: "bold cyan"
  separator_style: "white"
  continuation_style: "gray"

Default Theme

Style	Default	Usage
error	Bold red	Error messages
warning	Bold yellow	Warning messages
success	Bold green	Success messages
info	Bold blue	Info messages
muted	Dim	Secondary text
highlight	Bold cyan	Emphasized text

Programmatic Configuration

from friday_cli import CLIConfig, ThemeConfig, set_cli_config, reset_console

# Create custom config
config = CLIConfig(
    theme=ThemeConfig(error="magenta", success="bright_green"),
)
set_cli_config(config)
reset_console()

# Or load from dict
config = CLIConfig.from_dict({
    "theme": {"error": "red"},
    "icons": {"success": "[DONE]"},
})
