grove grove

grove is a meta-CLI that manages the lifecycle of Grove tools, delegates commands, and orchestrates actions across ecosystem projects.

Core Features

• Tool Lifecycle Management: install, update, version, and list commands manage tool binaries. It supports installation from GitHub releases by version tag, latest, nightly pre-releases, or building from source. It also resolves and installs inter-tool dependencies.
• Local Development Overrides: The dev command suite (link, use, cwd, point) registers and manages symlinks to local binaries built from different Git worktrees, enabling system-wide or workspace-specific overrides of released tool versions.
• Command Delegation: Acts as a facade for all ecosystem tools. Running grove cx stats locates and executes the cx binary. It uses a layered approach, prioritizing workspace-specific overrides (.grove/overrides.json), then workspace-local binaries, and finally globally installed versions.
• Ecosystem Orchestration:
  • build: A parallel build runner with a terminal interface (TUI) that respects build_after dependencies defined in project configurations.
  • run: Executes a shell command across all discovered projects within the current context.
  • deps: Manages Go module dependencies (bump, sync, tree) across all projects in an ecosystem.
• Stateful Release Workflow: The release command suite (plan, tui, apply) provides a dependency-aware release process. It includes version calculation, optional LLM-based changelog generation, CI monitoring, and stateful execution with rollback capabilities.
• Repository Management: repo add and ecosystem init commands create new standalone repositories or monorepo (“ecosystem”) structures from templates.
• Unified LLM Interface: llm request acts as a single entry point for LLM interactions, delegating prompts to the appropriate provider-specific tool (e.g., grove-gemini, grove-openai) based on the model name specified in flags or configuration.
