Feature Flags

Feature flags control experimental or optional functionality. Flags can be set at three levels with decreasing precedence: environment variables, project config, global config.

atlcli flag list                        # List all flags with sources
atlcli flag ls                          # Alias for list

atlcli flag get <name>                  # Get a flag value
atlcli flag get helloworld

atlcli flag set <name> <value>          # Set flag (project-level)
atlcli flag set helloworld true
atlcli flag set export.backend libreoffice --global  # Set globally

atlcli flag unset <name>                # Remove flag (project-level)
atlcli flag rm <name>                   # Alias for unset
atlcli flag unset helloworld --global   # Remove from global config

Flag value types: boolean (true/false), string, number

Precedence (highest to lowest):

Level	Location	Environment Variable
1. Environment	`FLAG_*`	`FLAG_HELLOWORLD=true`
2. Project	`.atlcli/config.json`	-
3. Global	`~/.atlcli/config.json`	-

Environment variable format: FLAG_ prefix + uppercase name with dots replaced by underscores. Example: helloworld → FLAG_HELLOWORLD, export.backend → FLAG_EXPORT_BACKEND

Utility Commands

Helloworld

Test command to verify the feature flag system works. Only available when flag.helloworld is true.

# Enable the command
atlcli flag set helloworld true

# Run it
atlcli helloworld
# Output: Hello dear user, thank you that you use me! Star me at https://github.com/BjoernSchotte/atlcli

# Disable (command will no longer be available)
atlcli flag set helloworld false

Purpose: Simple test to verify feature flags work correctly. When the flag is not set or false, the command behaves as if it doesn’t exist.

Update
