Soothe CLI Client

WebSocket-based CLI client for Soothe daemon.

Installation

pip install soothe-cli

Usage

The soothe command provides both CLI and TUI interfaces:

# Interactive TUI mode
soothe

# Headless single-prompt mode
soothe -p "Research AI advances"

# Autopilot goal via the TUI /autopilot slash command (loop-native rail)
cd /path/to/repo
soothe
# Inside the TUI: /autopilot greenfield-system Refactor the auth module

# Loop management
soothe loop list
soothe loop continue loop_abc123

Architecture

This package is the client component that communicates with the Soothe daemon via WebSocket.

No direct dependencies on daemon runtime - all communication through WebSocket
Lightweight dependencies - only typer, textual, rich, and SDK
WebSocket-only transport - bidirectional streaming protocol

Dependencies

soothe-sdk>=1.0.0 - events, display, wire contracts
typer>=0.9.0 - CLI framework
textual>=8.0.0 - TUI framework
rich>=13.0.0 - Console output

Configuration

CLI client settings are passed as global flags on every soothe invocation:

# Connect to a daemon on a non-default host/port
soothe --daemon-host 127.0.0.1 --daemon-port 8765

# Enable debug logging for ~/.soothe/logs/cli.log
soothe --log-level DEBUG

# Disable Markdown rendering in the TUI
soothe --no-render-markdown

Flag	Default	Description
`--daemon-host`	`127.0.0.1`	Daemon WebSocket host
`--daemon-port`	`8765`	Daemon WebSocket port
`--log-level`	`INFO`	CLI log level (`SOOTHE_LOG_LEVEL` env overrides)
`--render-markdown` / `--no-render-markdown`	enabled	Markdown rendering in TUI
`--soothe-home`	`~/.soothe`	Soothe home directory
`--streaming` / `--no-streaming`	daemon default	Override output streaming
`--streaming-mode`	daemon default	`streaming` or `batch`

Global flags apply to subcommands too, e.g. soothe --daemon-port 9000 loop list.
