--no-archive - Keep changesets active after bump
--force - Skip confirmations
--show-diff - Show detailed version diffs (preview mode only)

Note: The --snapshot and --prerelease flags cannot be used together as they represent different versioning strategies.

Examples:

# Preview version bumps (safe, no changes)
workspace bump --dry-run

# Apply version bumps
workspace bump --execute

# Full release workflow
workspace bump --execute --git-commit --git-tag --git-push

# Snapshot version for testing
workspace bump --snapshot --execute

# Pre-release version
workspace bump --prerelease beta --execute

# Show detailed diffs in preview
workspace bump --dry-run --show-diff

Changeset Archive Policies

When bumping versions, the CLI can automatically archive processed changesets based on configurable policies. This prevents changesets from being reused in future bumps while maintaining a complete history.

Available Policies:

Policy	Flags	Behavior	Use Case
Auto	(none)	Archives only stable versions	Default behavior - keeps prereleases active for iterative development
Never	`--no-archive`	Never archives changesets	Keep all changesets for review or manual cleanup
Always	`--always-archive`	Always archives changesets	Archive every bump, including prereleases

Policy Behavior:

Auto Policy (Default)

workspace bump --execute
# Stable version: 1.2.3 → 1.3.0
# Result: Changesets are ARCHIVED ✅

workspace bump --execute --prerelease beta
# Prerelease version: 1.2.3 → 1.3.0-beta.0
# Result: Changesets are NOT archived ❌ (kept for next bump)

Never Policy

workspace bump --execute --no-archive
# Any version: 1.2.3 → 1.3.0
# Result: Changesets are NOT archived ❌ (manual cleanup required)

Always Policy

workspace bump --execute --always-archive
# Stable version: 1.2.3 → 1.3.0
# Result: Changesets are ARCHIVED ✅

workspace bump --execute --prerelease beta --always-archive
# Prerelease version: 1.2.3 → 1.3.0-beta.0
# Result: Changesets are ARCHIVED ✅ (even for prereleases)

Prerelease Workflow Example:

The Auto policy enables clean prerelease workflows. The mode (create, increment, promote) is automatically inferred based on each package's current version:

Stable → Prerelease (Create): 1.2.3 + --prerelease beta → 1.3.0-beta.0
Same tag (Increment): 1.3.0-beta.0 + --prerelease beta → 1.3.0-beta.1
Different tag (Create new): 1.3.0-alpha.2 + --prerelease beta → 1.3.0-beta.0
Promote to stable: Omit --prerelease when on prerelease → 1.3.0

# Phase 1: Create initial beta (changesets NOT archived)
workspace bump --execute --prerelease beta
# 1.2.3 → 1.3.0-beta.0 (auto-detected: create mode)
# Changesets remain active ✓

# Phase 2: Increment beta (changesets NOT archived)
workspace bump --execute --prerelease beta
# 1.3.0-beta.0 → 1.3.0-beta.1 (auto-detected: increment mode)
# Changesets remain active ✓

# Phase 3: Create release candidate (changesets NOT archived)
workspace bump --execute --prerelease rc
# 1.3.0-beta.1 → 1.3.0-rc.0 (auto-detected: create mode - different tag)
# Changesets remain active ✓

# Phase 4: Promote to stable (changesets ARCHIVED)
workspace bump --execute
# 1.3.0-rc.0 → 1.3.0 (auto-detected: promote mode - no prerelease flag)
# Changesets archived automatically ✓

Conflict Protection:

The --no-archive and --always-archive flags are mutually exclusive. The CLI prevents using both flags simultaneously:

workspace bump --execute --no-archive --always-archive
# Error: The argument '--no-archive' cannot be used with '--always-archive'

When to Use Each Policy:

Auto (recommended): Standard workflow with prerelease support
Never: Auditing, manual changeset management, or keeping full history active
Always: Strict cleanup even for prereleases, or when changesets are single-use

Command Formats:

Format	Description	Example
`npm:<script>`	Runs npm script via detected package manager	`npm:lint`, `npm:build`
Plain command	Runs system command directly	`echo hello`, `ls -la`

Affected Package Detection:

The --affected flag enables intelligent package detection based on Git changes. It supports three modes:

Mode	Flags	Description
Working Directory	`--affected`	Analyzes uncommitted changes (staged + unstaged)
Commit Range	`--affected --since <REF>`	Analyzes changes between commits
Branch Comparison	`--affected --branch <NAME>`	Compares current branch against target branch

Examples:

# Run npm lint script in all packages
workspace execute --cmd npm:lint

# Run npm test in specific packages
workspace execute --cmd npm:test --filter-package "@myorg/core,@myorg/utils"

# Run commands in parallel (faster for independent packages)
workspace execute --cmd npm:build --parallel

# Run system command in all packages
workspace execute --cmd "echo hello"

# Pass extra arguments to npm script
workspace execute --cmd npm:test -- --coverage --watch

# Run lint only in core package
workspace execute --cmd npm:lint --filter-package "@myorg/core"

# JSON output for CI/CD
workspace --format json execute --cmd npm:test

# --- Affected Package Examples ---

# Run tests only on packages with uncommitted changes
workspace execute --cmd npm:test --affected

# Run lint on packages changed since main branch (great for PRs)
workspace execute --cmd npm:lint --affected --branch main

# Run build on packages changed in last 5 commits
workspace execute --cmd npm:build --affected --since HEAD~5

# Run tests on affected packages in parallel
workspace execute --cmd npm:test --affected --parallel

# CI/CD: Run tests on affected packages comparing with main
workspace execute --cmd npm:test --affected --branch main --parallel

Execution Behavior:

Sequential (default): Commands run one package at a time, with streaming output
Parallel (--parallel): Commands run concurrently, output collected and displayed per package
npm Scripts: Validates script exists in package.json before execution
Failure Handling: Continues on failure, reports all failures at end with summary
Affected Mode: When no packages are affected, exits successfully with "No affected packages" message

JSON Output Structure:

{
  "success": true,
  "data": {
    "command": "npm:test",
    "results": [
      {
        "package": "@myorg/core",
        "success": true,
        "duration_ms": 1234,
        "exit_code": 0
      },
      {
        "package": "@myorg/utils",
        "success": true,
        "duration_ms": 567,
        "exit_code": 0
      }
    ],
    "summary": {
      "total": 2,
      "succeeded": 2,
      "failed": 0,
      "duration_ms": 1801
    }
  }
}

Use Cases:

# CI/CD: Run tests across all packages
workspace execute --cmd npm:test --parallel

# CI/CD: Run tests only on affected packages (faster CI)
workspace execute --cmd npm:test --affected --branch main --parallel

# Development: Lint before commit (only changed packages)
workspace execute --cmd npm:lint --affected

# PR Validation: Test only what changed
workspace execute --cmd npm:test --affected --branch origin/main

# Build specific packages
workspace execute --cmd npm:build --filter-package "@myorg/core"

# Run custom script with arguments
workspace execute --cmd npm:test -- --updateSnapshot

# Release: Build only packages changed since last release
workspace execute --cmd npm:build --affected --since v1.0.0

Clone repository - Downloads the repository with progress indication
Detect configuration - Searches for existing workspace configuration
Path A: Configuration exists
- Validates configuration file structure
- Checks required directories exist (.changesets/, .changesets/history/, .workspace-backups/)
- Verifies .gitignore entries
- Reports validation results
Path B: No configuration
- Automatically runs init command
- Creates workspace configuration
- Sets up directory structure
- Updates .gitignore

Examples:

# Clone to default location (repository name)
workspace clone https://github.com/org/repo.git

# Clone to specific directory
workspace clone https://github.com/org/repo.git ./my-project

Global Options

All commands support these global options that control behavior across the entire application:

Options:

-r, --root <PATH> - Project root directory (default: current directory)
- Changes working directory before executing the command
- All file operations will be relative to this path
-l, --log-level <LEVEL> - Logging level (default: info)
- Controls verbosity of operation logs written to stderr
- Does NOT affect command output (stdout)
- Levels: silent, error, warn, info, debug, trace, verbose
- Note: verbose is an alias for info level
-q, --quiet - Suppress all output
- Shortcut that sets both --log-level silent and --format quiet
- Useful for scripts that only care about exit codes
-v, --verbose - Enable verbose output
- Shortcut that sets --log-level debug
- Useful for debugging and troubleshooting
-f, --format <FORMAT> - Output format (default: human)
- Controls format of command output written to stdout
- Does NOT affect logging (stderr)
- Formats: human, json, json-compact, quiet
--no-color - Disable colored output
- Removes ANSI color codes from both logs (stderr) and output (stdout)
- Also respects the NO_COLOR environment variable
- Useful for CI/CD environments and file redirection
-c, --config <PATH> - Path to config file
- Override default config file location
- Path can be relative or absolute
- Default: Auto-detect (.changesets.{toml,json,yaml,yml})

Stream Separation:

The CLI maintains strict separation between:

stderr: Logs only (controlled by --log-level)
stdout: Command output only (controlled by --format)

This ensures JSON output is never contaminated with logs, enabling reliable piping and parsing in scripts.

Examples:

# Clean JSON output with no logs (perfect for automation)
workspace --format json --log-level silent bump --dry-run

# JSON output with debug logs (logs to stderr, JSON to stdout)
workspace --format json --log-level debug bump --dry-run > output.json 2> debug.log

# Change working directory
workspace --root /path/to/project changeset list

# Use custom config file
workspace --config custom-config.toml config show

Configuration

The CLI uses a configuration file (repo.config.toml, repo.config.json, or repo.config.yaml) to control all aspects of workspace management. This file is typically created by running workspace init.

Configuration File Location

The CLI automatically detects configuration files in this order:

Path specified via --config flag
repo.config.toml in project root
repo.config.yaml or repo.config.yml in project root
repo.config.json in project root

Configuration Structure

The configuration is organized into logical sections under the [package_tools] namespace:

[package_tools.changeset]
# Changeset storage and management

[package_tools.version]
# Versioning strategy

[package_tools.dependency]
# Dependency propagation

Architecture

Error Handling

The CLI uses a unified CliError enum that wraps all error types:

Configuration: Config file errors
Validation: Argument/state validation errors
Execution: Command execution failures
Git: Git operation errors
Package: Package/package.json errors
Io: File system errors
Network: Network/registry errors
User: User-caused errors (invalid input, cancelled operations)

Each error maps to appropriate exit codes following sysexits conventions and includes user-friendly messages with actionable suggestions.

Output System

The CLI separates logging from output:

Logging (--log-level): Controls stderr output for debugging

Levels: silent, error, warn, info, debug, trace
Always goes to stderr
Independent from output format

Output (--format): Controls stdout for command results

Formats: human, json, json-compact, quiet
Always goes to stdout
Independent from logging

This separation ensures JSON output is never mixed with logs, perfect for CI/CD pipelines.
