A few CLI arguments were inconsistent. -y worked on six commands but not on the eleven others. env secret alone took --env while every other env command takes APP [ENV] positionally. env promote couldn't force. notification set --url-stdin echoed a webhook URL, which is a credential, to the terminal.

  • -y everywhere (NEW-29): every --yes takes -y.
  • env secret positionals (NEW-30, D5): env secret list APP [ENV], and env secret regenerate|delete APP ENV NAME, where the environment is required because a name follows it. Breaking: the old env secret APP --env ENV <action> form is gone.
  • env promote --force (NEW-33): it sends no expected generation and passes force, like app apply --force. It conflicts with --expected-generation and still asks for confirmation. PromoteRequest now omits an unset expected_generation, like its other optional fields, rather than sending null. The OpenAPI document is unchanged.
  • Hidden --url-stdin: the hidden one-line read moved from app secret set into support::read_hidden, which both now use. Piped input is read as before, but a URL over 8 KiB is now refused instead of silently cut.

The guides, cli.md, the manifest reference and the generated CLI reference use the new syntax.

Proof: a new parser test covers the new env secret shapes, -y, and --force conflicting with --expected-generation. A request test checks POST …/promote?force=true with body {"deployment":"operation-01"}, and another checks that an over-long piped URL is refused. cargo nextest run -p piquelctl (125), the daemon's promotion tests, clippy -D warnings, fmt and the CLI reference check pass.

Overview

This change aligns confirmation and environment arguments across piquelctl. It adds -y as an alias for every --yes option. It changes env secret to use positional targets. It adds env promote --force. It moves hidden input handling into a shared helper. The change touches 17 files, with 389 lines added and 244 removed.

CLI confirmation flags

  • -y is now accepted as a short alias for --yes in these commands:
    • CreateArgs and ApplyArgs in apps/piquelctl/src/cli.rs
    • DeletionFlags and OperationFlags in apps/piquelctl/src/cli.rs
    • RestoreArgs.yes in apps/piquelctl/src/deployments.rs
    • EditFlags.yes in apps/piquelctl/src/editing/mod.rs
    • WebhookCommand::Rotate in apps/piquelctl/src/editing/repositories.rs
    • PreviewDeletionFlags.yes in apps/piquelctl/src/previews.rs
    • recover-key --yes in apps/piquelctl/src/secrets.rs
    • the env confirmation flag in apps/piquelctl/src/environments.rs
  • The behavior of these flags does not change. Only the accepted spelling changes.

Environment secret commands

  • env secret no longer takes application and environment arguments on the parent command. The old form, env secret APP --env ENV <action>, is removed.
  • The new forms are:
    • env secret list APP [ENV]
    • env secret regenerate APP ENV NAME
    • env secret delete APP ENV NAME
  • apps/piquelctl/src/environments.rs changes the EnvCommand::Secret variant. It now holds only action: GeneratedSecretAction.
  • In apps/piquelctl/src/secrets.rs:
    • GeneratedSecretAction::List now takes EnvironmentArgs.
    • Regenerate and Delete now take a new GeneratedSecretChange struct. This struct holds a flattened NamedEnvironment target and the SecretChange.
    • GeneratedSecretAction::run no longer takes application or environment parameters. Its signature is now run(&self, client, console).
  • Regeneration without an environment is rejected at parse time.

Environment promotion

  • env promote adds --force.
  • --force conflicts with --expected-generation.
  • --force still requires confirmation.
  • When --force is set, the client receives force=true. The request omits the expected-generation guard.
  • Without --force, promotion uses the supplied generation or the current application generation. The client receives force=false.
  • PromoteArgs gains a force: bool field. Its documentation describes the exception.
  • In crates/piqueld-core/src/api.rs, PromoteRequest.expected_generation is now omitted from serialization when it is None. Previously, it was omitted only when it held the default value. The field stays optional.

Hidden input handling

  • support.rs adds read_hidden. This function:
    • reads from a file or stdin on a blocking thread
    • caps input at limit + 3 bytes
    • removes one trailing LF and an optional preceding CR
    • disables terminal echo for a terminal stdin, keeps newline echo, and restores terminal settings when its guard drops
    • returns read and terminal-mode errors as general CLI errors
  • app secret set in secrets.rs now uses read_hidden. The local reader, terminal echo handling, and newline trimming in that file are removed.
  • notification set --url-stdin in notifications.rs now uses read_hidden with &mut Console.
    • The URL limit is 8192 bytes.
    • The URL must be valid UTF-8.
    • The URL is trimmed before use.
    • The previous read_input flow and its imports are removed.
  • Piped input still works. An over-long piped URL is refused. It is not truncated.

Tests

  • apps/piquelctl/src/lib.rs adds parser_takes_env_secret_targets_positionally_and_short_yes. This test checks:
    • positional targets for env secret list, regenerate, and delete
    • positional targets for promote and app deletion
    • -y acceptance
    • rejection of secret regeneration without an environment
    • rejection of promotion without an expected generation
  • apps/piquelctl/tests/cli.rs:
    • The promotion test uses the shared promotion_accepted() reply fixture.
    • A new test checks that env promote --force sends force=true, omits expected_generation from the body, and returns the accepted operation ID.
    • A new test checks that notification set --url-stdin rejects an 8192-byte URL with exit code 2 and an "at most 8192 bytes" error.

Documentation

  • docs/user/reference/cli-commands.md (generated CLI reference):
    • Documents the confirmation option as -y, --yes.
    • Moves the environment argument to the list, regenerate, and delete subcommands.
  • docs/user/reference/cli.md:
    • Documents --url-stdin for new destination URLs. The URL is not echoed on a terminal.
    • States that env promote --force omits the inspected-generation precondition and still requires confirmation.
    • Uses the env secret list|regenerate|delete APP ENV syntax.
  • docs/user/reference/manifest.md uses piquelctl env secret regenerate APP ENV NAME.
  • docs/user/applications/secrets-and-variables.md uses the new regenerate and delete command forms.
  • docs/user/operations/notifications.md states that the webhook URL is read from standard input. It stays out of shell history. The URL is not shown as it is pasted.

Validation status

  • The author reports these checks as passing: cargo nextest run -p piquelctl (125 tests), daemon promotion tests, clippy with -D warnings, fmt, and the CLI reference check.
  • The author reports that the OpenAPI document is unchanged.
  • These results come from the PR author. This summary did not re-run them.

Walkthrough

The CLI adds -y aliases to confirmation flags, updates environment-secret command targets, and reads secret values and notification URLs without terminal echo. Environment promotion gains a --force option that omits the expected-generation precondition.

Changes: Confirmation aliases

Layer / File(s) Summary
Add and document -y aliases
apps/piquelctl/src/cli.rs, apps/piquelctl/src/deployments.rs, apps/piquelctl/src/editing/*, apps/piquelctl/src/environments.rs, apps/piquelctl/src/previews.rs, apps/piquelctl/src/secrets.rs, docs/user/reference/cli-commands.md
Confirmation flags accept -y alongside --yes. The command reference documents both forms.

Secret commands and hidden input

Layer / File(s) Summary
Move environment targets to secret subcommands
apps/piquelctl/src/environments.rs, apps/piquelctl/src/secrets.rs, apps/piquelctl/src/lib.rs, docs/user/applications/secrets-and-variables.md, docs/user/reference/cli-commands.md, docs/user/reference/cli.md, docs/user/reference/manifest.md
Secret actions now take application and environment targets on the relevant subcommands. Tests and examples reflect the updated command forms.
Read secret values and notification URLs without echo
apps/piquelctl/src/support.rs, apps/piquelctl/src/secrets.rs, apps/piquelctl/src/notifications.rs, apps/piquelctl/tests/cli.rs, docs/user/operations/notifications.md, docs/user/reference/cli.md
A shared reader handles bounded input from files or standard input and suppresses terminal echo. Secret values and notification URLs use this reader. URL input rejects values over 8192 bytes and invalid UTF-8.

Forced environment promotion

Layer / File(s) Summary
Add force mode to promotion
apps/piquelctl/src/environments.rs, crates/piqueld-core/src/api.rs, apps/piquelctl/tests/cli.rs, docs/user/reference/cli-commands.md, docs/user/reference/cli.md
Promotion accepts --force. Forced requests omit the expected-generation precondition. A test checks the request fields and returned operation ID.

One documentation line still points to a removed option and would cause a parser error. Fix it before or shortly after merge; no concrete code defect remains.

Full details: Title check

Explanation

The title "feat(cli): consistent confirmation and environment arguments" is a conventional commit that names the main change. The PR adds -y to every --yes, moves env secret to positional APP/ENV arguments, and adds env promote --force. The title covers the first two themes but not the --force addition or the hidden URL input change, which is expected for a short title.

Full details: Description check

Explanation

The description follows the template's structure. It explains the what and why, and it describes the breaking change to env secret. It does not link an issue with a "Closes #123" line, and the template's checklist items (dashboard support and NixOS module update) are not addressed. The description reports docs and tests as done, so the missing items are minor and non-critical.

A rabbit taps the -y key,
Then hides a secret from plain view.
A guarded generation guides the way,
Unless --force clears that check today.
The CLI takes a quiet hop,
And leaves the pasted URL on top.

- Every `--yes` also takes `-y`.
- `env secret` takes its target positionally like other `env` commands:
  `env secret list APP [ENV]` and `env secret regenerate|delete APP ENV NAME`.
- `env promote --force` promotes even if the application changed since the
  command read it.
- `notification set --url-stdin` asks a terminal for the URL without echoing
  it, like secret values, through a shared `support::read_hidden`.

Replace the removed env secret --env instruction.

The new env secret arguments do not accept --env. Readers who follow this instruction receive a parser error instead of rotating the secret. State that env secret regenerate requires the positional environment shown above. Keep the --env instruction for app exec separate.
