| `--replace` | Replace original |
| `--ignore-orientation` | Ignore EXIF orientation |
| `--remove-metadata` | Strip metadata |
| `--quality`, `-q` | JPEG quality (1–100) |

| `--file-name` | Output filename format |

## Example usage
```
# Show help
PowerToys.ImageResizerCLI.exe --help

# Show current config
PowerToys.ImageResizerCLI.exe --show-config

# Resize with explicit dimensions
PowerToys.ImageResizerCLI.exe --width 800 --height 600 .\image.png

# Use preset size 0 (Custom) and output to a folder
PowerToys.ImageResizerCLI.exe --size 0 -d "C:\Output" .\photo.png

# CLI Conventions
This document describes the conventions for implementing command-line interfaces (CLI) in PowerToys modules.
## Library
Use the **System.CommandLine** library for CLI argument parsing. This is already defined in `Directory.Packages.props`:
```xml
<PackageReference Include="System.CommandLine" Version="2.0.0-beta4.22272.1" />
```
Add the reference to your project:
```xml
<PackageReference Include="System.CommandLine" />
```
## Option Naming and Definition
- Use `--kebab-case` for long form (e.g., `--shrink-only`).
- Use single `-x` for short form (e.g., `-s`, `-w`).
- Define aliases as static readonly arrays: `["--silent", "-s"]`.
- Create options using `Option<T>` with descriptive help text.
- Add validators for options that require range or format checking.
## RootCommand Setup
- Create a `RootCommand` with a brief description.
- Add all options and arguments to the command.
## Parsing
- Use `Parser(rootCommand).Parse(args)` to parse CLI arguments.
- Extract option values using `parseResult.GetValueForOption()`.
- Note: Use `Parser` directly; `RootCommand.Parse()` may not be available with the pinned System.CommandLine version.
### Parse/Validation Errors
- On parse/validation errors, print error messages and usage, then exit with non-zero code.
## Examples
Reference implementations:
- Awake: `src/modules/Awake/Awake/Program.cs`
- ImageResizer: `src/modules/imageresizer/ui/Cli/`
## Help Output
- Provide a `PrintUsage()` method for custom help formatting if needed.
## Best Practices
1. **Consistency**: Follow existing module patterns.
2. **Documentation**: Always provide help text for each option.
3. **Validation**: Validate input and provide clear error messages.
4. **Atomicity**: Make one logical change per PR; avoid drive-by refactors.
5. **Build/Test Discipline**: Build and test synchronously, one terminal per operation.
6. **Style**: Follow repo analyzers (`.editorconfig`, StyleCop) and formatting rules.
## Logging Requirements
- Use `ManagedCommon.Logger` for consistent logging.
- Initialize logging early in `Main()`.
- Use dual output (console + log file) for errors and warnings to ensure visibility.
- Reference: `src/modules/imageresizer/ui/Cli/CliLogger.cs`
## Error Handling
### Exit Codes
- `0`: Success
- `1`: General error (parsing, validation, runtime)
- `2`: Invalid arguments (optional)
### Exception Handling
- Always wrap `Main()` in try-catch for unhandled exceptions.
- Log exceptions before exiting with non-zero code.
- Display user-friendly error messages to stderr.
- Preserve detailed stack traces in log files only.
## Testing Requirements
- Include tests for argument parsing, validation, and edge cases.
- Place CLI tests in module-specific test projects (e.g., `src/modules/[module]/tests/*CliTests.cs`).
## Signing and Deployment
- CLI executables are signed automatically in CI/CD.
- **New CLI tools**: Add your executable and dll to `.pipelines/ESRPSigning_core.json` in the signing list.
- CLI executables are deployed alongside their parent module (e.g., `C:\Program Files\PowerToys\modules\[ModuleName]\`).
- Use self-contained deployment (import `Common.SelfContained.props`).
