cli

Use case

The default, always-on output: what you see when you run cmt interactively, and (when --report is set) what gets written to output.last in the cmt directory - a snapshot of the last run, without ANSI color, for a non-interactive read-back.

Configuration

outputs:
  - name: cli
    type: cli
    format: short     # short (default) | full

format: full is the same thing -l/--long forces for a single run (overrides format: when passed).

Output

• short (default) - one line per check: status, module, name, message.
• full - every CheckItem on its own line, plus alert state, per check.

A run summary line always follows: per-severity counts, percent OK, and the overall worst severity for the run.

Example

cmt --conf dev/conf.yml            # short format
cmt --conf dev/conf.yml -l         # long/detailed format
