Has anyone tried this for command line applications? This could be a great way to develop some very specific/corner-case tools.
I write CLI tools with LLMs all the time. I even have a custom Claude Project that teaches the LLM to use inline script dependencies with uv so I can "uv run script.py" without first having to install anything else:

A CLI tool is a native binary that I can run directly via e.g. `/path/to/binary`. If I need to use `uv run ...` to execute something, then that thing isn't really a CLI tool, it's an interpreted script, which relies on an interpreter that needs to be available as a pre-requisite, and all of the numerous complications that follow from that...
Use this as your shebang line:
#!/usr/bin/env -S uv run --script
https://treyhunner.com/2024/12/lazy-self-installing-python-s...I don't think requiring all CLI tools to be "native binaries" makes sense. Plenty of popular CLI tools are not compiled binaries. The Python and Node.js ecosystems run on those.
