Runs entirely on your machine.\n\nBest for: csv wrangling, log analysis, and data transformation from the terminal.\n\n## Agent readiness\nUsable with guardrails (60/100)\n- Supports non-interactive/scripted use.\n- Works well in CI or repeatable automation.\n- Can run locally with less credential exposure.\n\n## Install\n```sh\nbrew install miller\n```\n\n## Verify before real work\n```sh\nmlr --version\n```\nExpected signal: mlr responds locally and is ready for the first real command.\n\n## Safe starting commands\n```sh\nmlr --version\n```\n\n```sh\nmlr --csv head data.csv\n```\n\n## Guardrails for agents\n- Prefer small commands and ask the agent to summarize plain text output.\n- Network access is required; avoid leaking secrets in logs.\n\n## Suggested agent instruction\nYou may use Miller (`mlr`) for csv wrangling, log analysis, and data transformation from the terminal.. 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":"csv wrangling, log analysis, and data transformation from the terminal.","useThisIf":"You want data processing that runs entirely on your machine.","skipIf":"You don't work with data processing.","whatHappensNext":"Run `mlr --csv head data.csv` and see what comes back."},"capabilities":{"agentFriendly":true,"supportsJsonOutput":false,"supportsNonInteractive":true,"supportsDryRun":false,"requiresAuth":false,"requiresNetwork":true,"ciFriendly":true,"localFirst":true,"destructivePotential":"low"},"taxonomy":{"useCases":["CSV wrangling","Log analysis","Data transformation"],"aliases":["mlr"],"keywords":["csv","json","data","transform"],"tags":[]},"links":{"website":"https://miller.readthedocs.io","github":"https://github.com/johnkerl/miller","docs":"https://miller.readthedocs.io","opencli":"https://opencli.co/cli/miller","markdown":"https://opencli.co/cli/miller/agent.md","json":"https://opencli.co/cli/miller.json"},"metrics":{"githubStars":9901,"latestRelease":"2026-06-05T11:37:30Z","license":"NOASSERTION","metricLabel":"Homebrew installs (30d)","metricValue":369,"metricSource":"homebrew","metricAsOf":"2026-06-08T11:00:59.585Z"}}
