aclif is an open source, MIT-licensed framework for building command-line tools that AI agents use to reach SaaS platforms. It solves the context-window problem of traditional Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers by loading command definitions only when an agent asks for them, keeping token costs low and reach broad.

Designed for developers and teams building AI agents that span multiple enterprise platforms, aclif provides a unified abstraction with one grammar, self-describing commands, and declared safety metadata across every supported SaaS provider.
