The Father Of All CLIs

Many services. Many agents. One door.

One CLI for all your SaaS providers, built for the coding agents on your machine rather than for you. Install it once, log in once, and every harness uses every provider without any setup of its own.

Once, for every harness18 → 3 integrations

Three harnesses and six adapters is eighteen integrations to configure and keep authenticated. foac collapses them into one binary that already knows the APIs.

$ mise use -g github:alephic-ai/foac

foac update keeps it current after that

Why harnesses like it

foac <provider> <resource> <verb>

An MCP server pushes its whole tool catalog into the context before the first call. foac has one consistent hierarchy that every provider follows, so an agent discovers commands progressively and only reads what the task needs.

$ foac linear issue list --team ENG

$ foac slack conversation list

$ foac github pr list --state open

Auth once, share everywhere

foac auth <provider> login validates and stores your token once. Every harness and script on the machine reuses the same auth — a new harness needs no configuration at all.

Offline discovery

Every command tree is compiled into the binary. An agent learns an API through --help without a network round-trip, a doc lookup, or the tokens to pay for either.

A grammar agents can guess

One hierarchy — foac <provider> <resource> <verb> — for every provider. Knowing foac linear user list exists is knowing foac slack user list exists.

Many tenants, side by side

Two Slack workspaces or Atlassian sites live side by side as named instances, addressable from any folder. Auth is never affected by per-project toggles.

Eight providers, one grammar

The CLI shrinks and grows with what you enable.

Disabled or unauthenticated providers disappear from --help and from the installed agent skills, so they never take up context. Toggle them globally or per project without touching auth.

Composable, like a Unix tool

Pipe one provider into another. foac does the join.

Compact JSON on stdout, errors as JSON on stderr, exit code 1 — and --from names the field to match on, so one provider's list feeds another's get with no jq or xargs glue. Responses are the provider's raw JSON, so the upstream API docs describe foac's output too.

Self-installing skills, self-updating binary

Teach every agent at once.

foac skill install writes one skill per active provider for Claude Code and every agent reading ~/.agents/skills/, and removes the skills of inactive providers. foac update pulls the latest release and refreshes them.
