A CLI designed for deterministic automation

Ticket is an open protocol. The CLI is the reference implementation for agents: strict mode, structured output, and safe validation.

Install

npm

npm i -g @ticketdotapp/cli

Terminal

cd your-repo
ticket init
ticket new "Add paywall experiment" --priority p1 --ci
git push

Creates:

Terminal

ticket list --state ready
ticket show TK-01ARZ3ND
ticket start TK-01ARZ3ND --ci
ticket done TK-01ARZ3ND --ci

Strict, non-interactive execution

--ci mode

ticket list --json --ci
ticket move TK-01ARZ3ND in_progress --ci
ticket validate --json --ci

JSON output

ticket list --json --ci
ticket show TK-01ARZ3ND --json --ci

Never parse tables

Use JSON for agents and automation.

Terminal

ticket validate --all --ci
ticket rebuild-index --ci
ticket validate --all --fix-index --ci
