v8.0.1: UX Enhancements
Improved
Human-Readable Output by Default
All CLI commands now default to --format=human instead of --format=json. This makes the CLI more friendly for interactive use while still supporting --format=json for scripting and automation.
Quieter Indexer Output
External SCIP indexers (scip-go, scip-typescript, etc.) no longer spam stdout during ckb index. Output is now captured and only shown on error or when using -v verbose mode.
Better Error Messages
ckb dead-codenow clearly indicates it's for telemetry-based analysis and suggests usingckb telemetry dead-codeckb impact diffno longer shows confusing "Symbol not found: diff" error; instead provides helpful guidance- Symbol not found errors now suggest using
ckb searchto find valid symbol IDs
Index Missing Guidance
ckb status now shows helpful guidance when no SCIP index is found:
- Lists commands that work without index (git-based):
hotspots,ownership,reviewers,diff-summary,pr-summary - Lists commands that need SCIP index:
search,refs,callgraph,impact,dead-code,trace,explain
Fixed
- Consistent
