good point.

we’re using “framework” intentionally because it goes beyond argument parsing. crust handles parsing, but also:

type inference across args + flags end to end compile-time validation (so mistakes fail before runtime) plugin system with lifecycle hooks (help, version, autocomplete, etc.) composable modules (prompts, styling, validation, build tooling) auto-generates agent skills and modules from the CLI definitions

so it sits a layer above a traditional arg parser like yargs or commander, closer to something like oclif, but much lighter and bun-native.
