First install it if missing, then run the verify command. Start with read-only or inspection commands. Summarize what you found before changing anything. Ask for confirmation before commands that mutate remote state, spend money, deploy, delete data, merge code, or expose secrets.\n\nSource: OpenCLI\n"},"fit":{"bestFor":"Exploring APIs from a polished terminal HTTP client.","useThisIf":"You want to inspect, save, and replay API requests while debugging integrations.","skipIf":"You need a fully non-interactive CI HTTP client; use httpie or curl instead.","whatHappensNext":"Run `posting` and see what comes back."},"capabilities":{"agentFriendly":false,"supportsJsonOutput":false,"supportsNonInteractive":false,"supportsDryRun":false,"requiresAuth":false,"requiresNetwork":true,"ciFriendly":false,"localFirst":true,"destructivePotential":"medium"},"taxonomy":{"useCases":["API testing","HTTP debugging","Integration exploration"],"aliases":["posting http","terminal postman","api client"],"keywords":["http","api","rest","request","postman","tui"],"tags":["api","http","tui"]},"links":{"website":"https://posting.sh","github":"https://github.com/darrenburns/posting","docs":"https://posting.sh/guide/","opencli":"https://opencli.co/cli/posting","markdown":"https://opencli.co/cli/posting/agent.md","json":"https://opencli.co/cli/posting.json"},"metrics":{"githubStars":12001,"latestRelease":"2026-03-25T23:30:48Z","license":"Apache-2.0","metricLabel":"PyPI weekly downloads","metricValue":3048,"metricSource":"pypistats","metricAsOf":"2026-06-04T14:05:34.152Z"}}
