Proposed Changes

  • Give every successful command an outcome message, preserve pagination footers for empty results, and emit command hints only when their target exists.
  • Reject unknown subcommands and undeclared positional arguments across the assembled Cobra tree, including mounted roots and Cobra's help and completion commands.
  • Preserve JSON error output when --json follows an invalid flag.
  • Declare documented operands through ProcessDoc metadata while retaining compatibility for operands embedded in command names.
  • Render redirected help without ANSI styling, honor NO_COLOR, and measure wrapping from stdout.
  • Verify profile set-default against the persisted store, expose --store consistently, and validate profile command operands.
  • Pass kas-registry end-to-end arguments directly so spaces and quotes remain intact.

cli.EnforceSubcommandArgs marks runnable help stubs with cli.AnnotationHelpOnly; command-tree consumers can identify them with cli.IsHelpOnly. ProcessDoc now assigns cobra.NoArgs when a document declares no operands.

Checklist

  • I have added or updated unit tests
  • I have added or updated integration tests (if appropriate)
  • I have added or updated documentation

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes

    • Invalid or unexpected command arguments are now rejected with clear errors instead of being silently ignored.
    • Profile commands consistently honor store selection; deleting a profile now requires a profile name.
    • Setting a default profile verifies that the change was persisted successfully.
    • Empty result lists display a clear message without an unnecessary table.
    • Linux no longer shows a keyring warning when viewing authentication help.
    • JSON output is preserved for command validation errors.
  • Documentation

    • Command documentation now accurately describes supported positional arguments and usage.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The PR strengthens Cobra argument validation, fixes profile store flag handling, improves tabular output, scopes keyring warnings, updates manual-page rendering, preserves JSON output on flag errors, and preserves end-to-end argument boundaries.

Changes

CLI validation

Layer / File(s) Summary
Command tree validation
otdfctl/pkg/cli/args.go, otdfctl/pkg/cli/args_test.go, otdfctl/cmd/execute.go, otdfctl/cmd/execute_test.go
Group commands become help-only commands. Mounted and standard roots reject unknown subcommands. Requested JSON mode is restored before flag errors are handled.
Generated command argument validation
otdfctl/pkg/man/man.go, otdfctl/pkg/man/man_test.go, otdfctl/docs/man/*
Generated commands reject unexpected arguments while preserving declared positional arguments.

Profile store handling

Layer / File(s) Summary
Profile store resolution
otdfctl/cmd/profile.go, otdfctl/cmd/profile_test.go
Profile commands share store flag registration. list and delete validate arguments. set-default verifies persisted configuration.

Tabular output

Layer / File(s) Summary
Success message generation
otdfctl/pkg/cli/tabular.go, otdfctl/pkg/cli/tabular_test.go
Success messages use command names, conditionally show hints, report unknown verbs, and suppress empty result tables.

Manual rendering and authentication

Layer / File(s) Summary
Manual output style
otdfctl/pkg/man/style.go, otdfctl/pkg/man/style_test.go
Manual output uses plain styling when stdout is non-interactive or NO_COLOR is set.
Authentication warning scope
otdfctl/cmd/auth/auth.go, otdfctl/cmd/auth/auth_test.go
The keyring warning is suppressed for the auth command itself and retained for Linux subcommands.

End-to-end argument handling

Layer / File(s) Summary
Quoted end-to-end arguments
otdfctl/e2e/kas-registry.bats
The KAS registry tests invoke the CLI directly and preserve argument boundaries for invalid-URI cases.

Priority: ➖ Normal

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes

Change: Bug fix

Suggested reviewers: jakedoublev

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to d8325

Mounted CLI consumers can still silently accept mistyped positional arguments on runnable leaves. This conflicts with the argument-validation behavior introduced by the PR and should be resolved before merge.

Rabbit hops where command paths meet,
Flags now keep their JSON beat.
Profiles store what they should know,
Empty tables softly say “no.”
Manuals shine when terminals glow,
Safe arguments travel toe to toe.

In `@otdfctl/cmd/execute.go`:
- Line 49: The root command validation currently runs before MountRoot adds
mounted commands, so mounted non-runnable groups miss the Cobra.NoArgs and
helpOnlyRun configuration. Move validation to run after MountRoot against the
final mounted root, and add an end-to-end test confirming an invalid subcommand
under a mounted command group fails instead of printing help successfully.

In `@otdfctl/cmd/profile_test.go`:
- Line 20: Add profileGetCmd to the readsStoreFlag command list used by the
store-flag contract test, alongside the other commands registered by the loop.
Keep the existing test structure unchanged so profileGetCmd’s
getDriverTypeFromUser dependency is covered.

In `@otdfctl/pkg/cli/tabular_test.go`:
- Line 1: Run the repository-required validation targets from the repository
root: make lint and make test. Confirm both complete successfully with no new
lint issues before considering the change complete.

In `@otdfctl/pkg/cli/tabular.go`:
- Around line 142-143: Add an output-level test for PrintSuccessTable using a
zero-row model that captures stdout and verifies the no-results message is
present while table content is absent; keep the existing successMessages
assertions and cover the rows == 0 rendering path.

… get

PrintSuccessTable matched cmd.Use against the action constants. A command
built from a man doc carries its positional arguments there, so "get <id>"
never matched "get" and fell through to a default branch that set an empty
message, printing a bare SUCCESS bar with no text. Any verb outside the
fixed get/create/update/delete/deactivate/list set did the same, so
upload, download, and add reported nothing at all. Match on cmd.Name()
and give the default branch a real message.

The footer hint appended "<resource> get --id=..." unconditionally, which
pointed at a command that does not exist for groups without a get. Emit it
only when the sibling is there.

An empty list rendered as a header-only table, which reads as though the
command failed. Report that nothing was found and drop the table.

Splits the wording into successMessages so it can be tested without
capturing stdout.

Signed-off-by: Krish Suchak <suchak.krish@gmail.com>
A mistyped subcommand below the top level printed help and exited 0, so a
typo looked like a command that had run and done nothing.

Two cobra behaviors combine to hide it. A command with subcommands and no
Run returns flag.ErrHelp, and ExecuteC swallows that error. The Runnable
check also precedes argument validation, so marking a group cobra.NoArgs
on its own changes nothing. EnforceSubcommandArgs gives each group a
help-printing Run, which makes it runnable, at which point NoArgs reports
the unknown subcommand the way a mistyped top-level command already does.
It runs from Execute so it covers the groups built by hand, such as policy
and profile, as well as anything a consumer has mounted. Groups it makes
runnable are annotated, so tooling that walks the tree can tell a help
stub from a real command.

ProcessDoc left Args nil when a doc declared no positional arguments,
which let cobra accept and silently ignore anything passed. It now
defaults to cobra.NoArgs, gated on the assembled Use string rather than
the arguments metadata alone, because a few docs declare their argument
inline in the name instead, as with `name: encrypt [file]`.

TestProcessDocNoArgs asserted only the Use string, which is how this went
unnoticed; it now covers Args as well.

Piping --help to a file or a pager produced a wall of escape sequences.
NewTermRenderer defaults to a TrueColor profile and does no terminal
detection of its own, and the one option that would reach glamour's
detection, WithAutoStyle, is commented out here and in any case only
selects dark versus light rather than the color profile. Render from the
ASCII style instead when stdout is not a terminal or NO_COLOR is set. The
margins and wrap width apply either way, and interactive help is
unchanged.

Command results were already unaffected, since those go through lipgloss,
which downgrades on its own.

Also measures the wrap width from stdout. term.GetSize(0) sized it against
stdin, which is the wrong stream whenever either one is redirected.

Detection reads os.Stdout directly because docs are styled during package
initialization, long before any flag is parsed.

set-default reported success without confirming that the new default
reached the store. It now re-reads through a fresh profiler, which reloads
the global config, and fails loudly if the default did not change. Reading
back through the same profiler would only echo the value it had just set
in memory.

set-default and set-endpoint both resolve their driver through
newProfilerFromCLI, which reads a --store flag neither command registered.
GetOptionalString returns the empty string for an unregistered flag, so
the selection was unreachable and always used the default driver, while
passing --store was rejected as an unknown flag. Register it on every
command that reads it.

EnforceSubcommandArgs ran against RootCmd before MountRoot, so a consumer
mounting otdfctl left its own non-runnable groups unvalidated and a typo
under one of them printed help and exited 0. Run it against whichever root
cobra will execute, once the tree is whole.

Cover profileGetCmd in the store-flag contract test: it resolves its driver
through getDriverTypeFromUser rather than newProfilerFromCLI, so the list
named the wrong invariant.

Add an output-level test for PrintSuccessTable omitting the table on a
zero-row result, which only the message-level wording was covering.

…ile failures apart

ExecuteC adds `help` and `completion` after the enforcement ran, so
`otdfctl completion bogus` still printed help and exited 0, which is the
behavior this branch set out to remove. Materialize both first; each call is
already guarded against adding twice, and the args-sensitive branch of
InitDefaultCompletionCmd only applies to a root with no other subcommands.

set-default printed "Failed to set default profile" for both the write failing
and the read-back disagreeing, so the check added to tell those apart could not
be told apart in the output.

The store-flag command list was written out twice, once to register the flag and
once to assert it, so a seventh command could be added to the first without the
second noticing. One accessor now feeds both, and the default comes from
ProfileDriverDefault rather than a literal beside it.

TestMountedRootKeepsValidInvocations only validated nil arguments, which every
validator accepts, so it could not detect a group that had stopped rejecting
operands.

…ts behind them

Several comments narrated the investigation rather than the code. The worst ran
eleven lines in ProcessDoc, restating the diff and naming a test. Each keeps the
part a reader cannot recover from the code: that a misspelled operand key lands
in the NoArgs branch and loses its operands, and that cobra checks Runnable()
before it validates arguments.

AnnotationHelpOnly has no consumer inside this repo, which makes it look dead.
Name the one it has, tructl's MCP tool generator, so it is not deleted as unused.

Three tests did not hold their claims, all for the same reason: a test binary's
stdout is never a terminal, so the styled branch was never reached. plainOutput
now reads a swappable function, which makes both branches testable, and the
NO_COLOR case is asserted against a terminal where it can actually decide
something.

TestStyleDocPreservesMarkdownStructure claimed to guard the layout applied to
both style configs while only ever running one. It turns out the dark style
colours the H1 but does not prefix it, so the prefix assertion only ever held
for the ASCII style. It now compares the two branches and counts escapes, since
the heading override colours the H1 under either config and a handful of escapes
says nothing about the body.

TestProcessDocArgsInNameAreNotRejected skipped its assertion when Args was nil,
which is the pre-fix state, so it passed on the bug it was written for.

testifylint's require-error check is enabled repo-wide and make lint runs it, so
three assert.NoError/assert.Error calls followed by further assertions would have
failed the target.

The kas-registry helper interpolates $* into `sh -c`, which re-splits on
whitespace, so `--uri "https ://example.com"` reached the binary as `--uri https`
followed by a stray `://example.com`. Cobra discarded the stray positional, and
the two invalid-URI tests passed while asserting against `https` rather than the
URI they name.

Now that a leaf declaring no operands rejects them, the stray argument is
reported instead and both tests fail. Quote each argument so it survives the
re-split, which also makes the cases test the URIs they were written for.

The other three URIs in each list contain no spaces and were unaffected either
way.
