About
cli-anything-anygen is an HKUDS cli-anything skill packaging a stateful command-line interface for the AnyGen OpenAPI. Install with pip install cli-anything-anygen on Python 3.10+ with anygen present on the system, then drive generation of professional slides, documents, websites, diagrams, and related assets from natural language prompts. AI agents and power users reach for it when they need batch or scripted media output from the terminal instead of embedding a bespoke HTTP client. The CLI exposes help, job triggering, prompts, assets, and batch outputs designed for agent automation. Use it during build when documentation, presentation, or web artifact generation must run headlessly alongside coding tasks.
- AnyGen CLI invocation
- Batch generative jobs
- Prompt and asset parameters
- Agent-safe command templates
- cli-anything integration style

How do agents generate AnyGen media from the shell?
Trigger AnyGen generation jobs from the shell—prompts, assets, and batch outputs—when agents need media without a custom SDK integration.
Who is it for?
Developers and coding agents that need terminal-driven AnyGen generation without writing a custom OpenAPI client.
Skip if: Skip cli-anything-anygen when you already maintain a typed AnyGen SDK integration or only need interactive browser-based editing.
When should I use this skill?
Trigger when the user wants to generate slides, documents, websites, or diagrams via AnyGen from the CLI, batch media jobs, or agent shell automation.
What you get
Generated slides, documents, websites, diagrams, and batch media files produced via AnyGen OpenAPI jobs.
- Generated slides and documents
- Websites and diagrams from prompts
