Marketing CLIs

Zero-dependency, single-file CLI tools for marketing platforms that don't ship their own.

Every CLI is a standalone Node.js script (Node 18+) with no npm install required — just chmod +x and go.

Install

Option 1: Run directly

node tools/clis/ahrefs.js backlinks list --target example.com

Option 2: Symlink for global access

# Symlink any CLI you want available globally
ln -sf "$(pwd)/tools/clis/ahrefs.js" ~/.local/bin/ahrefs
ln -sf "$(pwd)/tools/clis/resend.js" ~/.local/bin/resend

# Then use directly
ahrefs backlinks list --target example.com
resend send --from you@example.com --to them@example.com --subject "Hello" --html "<p>Hi</p>"

Option 3: Add the whole directory to PATH

export PATH="$PATH:/path/to/marketingskills/tools/clis"

Security

Never hardcode API keys or tokens in scripts. All CLIs read credentials exclusively from environment variables.

• Store keys in your shell profile (~/.zshrc, ~/.bashrc) or a .env file
• The .env file is gitignored — but double-check before committing
• Use --dry-run on any command to preview the request without sending it (credentials are masked as ***)
• If you fork this repo, audit your commits to ensure no secrets are included

Command Pattern

All CLIs follow the same structure:

{tool} <resource> <action> [options]

Examples:

ahrefs backlinks list --target example.com --limit 50
semrush keywords overview --phrase "marketing automation" --database us
mailchimp campaigns list --limit 20
resend send --from you@example.com --to them@example.com --subject "Hello" --html "<p>Hi</p>"
dub links create --url https://example.com/landing --key summer-sale

Output

All CLIs output JSON to stdout for easy piping:

# Pipe to jq
ahrefs backlinks list --target example.com | jq '.backlinks[].url_from'

# Save to file
semrush keywords overview --phrase "saas marketing" --database us > keywords.json

# Use in scripts
DOMAINS=$(rewardful affiliates list | jq -r '.data[].email')
