The docs are rendered into cliffy/llms.txt by scripts/docs.py, printed by the new command without a model or the ai extra, and published at /llms.txt. CI now runs make docs-check so the generated files cannot go stale. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
…ings cli init without --raw no longer rejects names with a hyphen. cli validate warns when a param's default, help or short is dropped because its type in types is a complete Typer definition. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Disable credential persistence for the docs checkout, arrr.
The docs job runs on pull requests and executes repository-controlled code. actions/checkout@v7 persists the read-only GITHUB_TOKEN by default. Untrusted pull-request code can access that credential from the local Git configuration.

Handle complete Typer definitions in the parser and checker, arrr.
A plain type such as str = "typer.x" is not a complete Typer definition. However, cliffy/parser.py still treats any typer. substring as complete and returns before applying the parameter’s default, help, or short. The warning is therefore accurate about the settings being ignored, but the checker-only correction would hide the unchanged parser defect.
Match only typer.Option(...) and typer.Argument(...) in both parser branches and in the checker, arrr.

| ## Giving cliffy's documentation to an agent | ||
|
|
||
| `cli ai llms-txt` prints cliffy's documentation as a single text file in the [llms.txt](https://llmstxt.org/) layout: the quickstart, the guides and the CLI and manifest references. | ||
|
|
||
| ```bash | ||
| cli ai llms-txt > cliffy-llms.txt | ||
| ``` | ||
|
|
||
| The file is bundled with the installed package, so it needs no network access, no model and no `ai` extra, and it always describes the version you have installed. Put it in the context of a coding agent and it can write and fix manifests without looking anything up. | ||
|
|
||
| The same file is published with the documentation at [`/llms.txt`](llms.txt). |

The top note on this page now misleads, matey.
The note at Line 8 says cli ai commands exit with an install hint without the ai extra. That is no longer true for llms-txt. Reword the note to say that only generate and ask need the extra.

Arrr, pass encoding="utf-8" when ye read the docs and snippets!
Line 902 and Line 912 call read_text() with no encoding. Line 962 also calls write_text(render()) with none, and Line 971 calls read_text() with none. The docs contain non-ASCII text, such as ✨, box-drawing characters and 💔. On Windows the locale encoding is used, so make docs-generate can fail or write a different file. The check_generated comparison and the cli ai llms-txt reader then use mismatched encodings. The reader at cliffy/ai.py already uses UTF-8. Set encoding="utf-8" on these calls, shipmate.
Proposed fix
- lines = (ROOT / path).read_text().splitlines()
+ lines = (ROOT / path).read_text(encoding="utf-8").splitlines()
...
- text = page.read_text()
+ text = page.read_text(encoding="utf-8")Based on learnings: always pass an explicit encoding="utf-8" to Path.read_text() and Path.write_text() when files may hold non-ASCII content.
