"It's like a modular, multicall BusyBox builder for Go with built in completion and embedded documentation support."
"The utility here is that Bonzai lets you maintain your own personal 'toolbox' with built in auto-complete that you can assemble from various Go modules. Individual commands are isolated and unaware of each other and possibly maintained by other people."
"I used Bonzai for a pentest ... was able to inject ebpf.io kernel modules that were part of bin lol! Bonzai is Genius!"
Bonzaiâ„¢ was born from a very real need to replace messy collections of shell scripts, wasteful completion sourcing, and OS-specific documentation with a single, stateful, multicall binary composed of commands organized as rooted node trees with a clean, modular, portable, statically-compiled, and dynamically self-documenting design. There's simply nothing else like it in Go or any other language, and there's no better language than Go for such things. Crafting homekit/rootkit binaries with embedded resources that don't bloat RAM consumption is a breeze. No other language can do it.
Bonzai gets its name from the fact that Bonzai users are fond of meticulously manicuring their own stateful command trees, built from imported composite commands that they can easily copy and run on on any device, anywhere.
Bonzai users can easily share their own commands with others just like they would any other Go module and since most Bonzai commands also double as a high-level library package, even non-Bonzai users benefit. In fact, this monorepo is full of other Go modules containing cookbook recipe code for many of the things an avid techy with Go skills would want, the missing "batteries" that make Go really light up a well-crafted multicall command tree.

We have worked hard keep things as simple as possible so they are intuitive and to document this package as succinctly as possible so it is very usable from any decent tool that allows looking up documentation while writing the code.
