Gregory Schier 314f08545c Add a Yaak CLI skill for coding agents, installed by yaak agent install
Teaches agents to drive the CLI: workspaces, environments, requests,
sending, response chaining, and importing. SKILL.md stays lean with
four references loaded on demand.

The skill is embedded in the binary and written to ~/.agents/skills plus
any detected tool directory, so it ships with the CLI and refreshes on
update. Reinstalls keep files edited locally unless --force.

Also fixes the `request schema http` hint for URL path parameters, which
said to omit the leading colon. Names without the colon are sent as query
string parameters instead, leaving the placeholder literal in the path.

Yaak CLI

The yaak CLI for publishing plugins and creating/updating/sending requests.

Installation

npm install @yaakapp/cli

Agentic Workflows

The yaak CLI is primarily meant to be used by AI agents, and has the following features:

  • schema subcommands to get the JSON Schema for any model (eg. yaak request schema http)
  • --json '{...}' input format to create and update data
  • --verbose mode for extracting debug info while sending requests
  • The ability to send entire workspaces and folders (Supports --parallel and --fail-fast)

Example Prompts

Use the yaak CLI with agents like Claude or Codex to do useful things for you.

Here are some example prompts:

Scan my API routes and create a workspace (using yaak cli) with
all the requests needed for me to do manual testing?
Send all the GraphQL requests in my workspace
