What the author says it does

Build command-line apps in R using the Rapp package. Use when creating a CLI tool in R, adding argument parsing to an R script, turning an R script into a command-line app, shipping CLIs in an R package, or using Rapp (the alternative Rscript front-end). Also use for shebang scripts, exec/ directory in R packages, or subcommand-based R tools.

SkillProof status

This skill is in our test queue. We install every skill in a clean environment, run a trigger battery and score output against a baseline before it earns a catalog page — the full protocol is public. Until then, treat it like any unreviewed dependency: read the SKILL.md and any scripts before installing.
