Overview
Surfaces the command-line attack surface of Python programs as cli://
endpoints: one endpoint per (sub)command, with named options
(param_type "flag"), positional arguments ("argument"), and consumed
environment variables ("env"). Covers stdlib argparse / getopt /
sys.argv plus click, typer, fire, docopt, Abseil (absl-py) flags, and
Cleo commands.
Line-scan analyzer (the house style for non-tree-sitter Python adapters, e.g. bottle). Endpoints are merged by URL so options registered across decorators/functions collect onto a single command.

ABSL_DEFINE_CALL_RE =
/\bflags\.DEFINE_(?:string|integer|bool|boolean|float|enum|list|multi_string|multi_integer|multi_enum)\s*\(/ -
Abseil (absl-py): flags.DEFINE_* calls register a single flat flag namespace consumed via FLAGS.
after app.run(main) — there is no subcommand concept, so every flag attaches to the binary's root URL. -

CLEO_COMMAND_CLASS_RE =
/^class\s+(\w+)\s*\(\s*Command\b/ -
^in Crystal/PCRE without the multiline flag anchors to the start of the whole subject, not each line — fine for the per-lineline.matchuse in scan_cleo below, but a separate (?:^|\n)-anchored variant is needed to test this against the full multi-line file content. Both variants are column-0 anchored (no\s*beforeclass) so the entrypoint gate below matches exactly what scan_cleo can extract — aclass Foo(Command)nested inside a function/method (indented) is never resolved by scan_cleo, so it must not satisfy the gate either, or the file gets treated as a CLI entrypoint with no real command found (scan_stdlib then fires unconditionally on an unrelated env/argv read). -
CLEO_IMPORT_RE =
/(?:^|\n)\s*(?:import\s+cleo\b|from\s+cleo(?:\.\w+)*\s+import\b)/ -
Cleo: a Command subclass declares its subcommand name as a class attribute, then reads its own arguments/options back out by name inside its methods (self.argument("x") / self.option("y")) — that readback call is also the most reliable textual anchor for the option/argument name itself.

Web frameworks: their os.environ/os.getenv reads are config, not a CLI surface, so raw env is suppressed when one is present (framework-bound env via click/typer is still emitted).
