#claudestream CLI Reference

Stream Claude Code's JSON protocol

Version: 0.14.2

#Commands

• send -- Send a prompt to Claude and display the complete response with events
• stream -- Stream a prompt with real-time incremental token-by-token output to stdout
• events -- Debug mode: display all raw JSON protocol events from the subprocess

#Command Groups

• agent -- Manage and run agents defined in .agent.json files. Agent definitions declare a model, prompt template, allowed tools with input schemas, sandbox permissions, and budget limits (cost, turns, tokens). Use subcommands to validate configurations, run agents against prompts, and inspect metadata.

#Framework flags

These flags are owned by the strictcli framework, not by the app. No command may declare a flag with one of these names, and each is recognized anywhere on the command line.
