Mermaid CLI for Headless Automation
Use KosmoKrator as a non-interactive integration runtime for local automations and wrappers.
Use headless automation when another tool needs a stable local command surface. The Mermaid CLI uses the same integration registry as the TUI, Lua runtime, and MCP gateway, but returns predictable command output for automation.

Automation Notes
- Use
--jsonfor machine-readable output. - Keep credentials out of argv by using environment variables or stored KosmoKrator configuration.
- Configure read/write policy before unattended runs; use
--forceonly for trusted automation. - Use the MCP gateway instead when the agent needs dynamic tool discovery inside a conversation.
