NAME

open-file - private open-file helper for Developer Dashboard

SYNOPSIS

dashboard open-file [--print] [--line N] [--editor CMD] <file|scope> [pattern...]

DESCRIPTION

This private helper is staged under ~/.developer-dashboard/cli/dd/ so the main dashboard command can keep file-opening behaviour available without installing a generic executable into the user's global PATH.

PURPOSE

Private helper script in the Developer Dashboard codebase. This file dispatches the dashboard open-file command through the private helper runtime. Open this file when you need the implementation, regression coverage, or runtime entrypoint for that responsibility rather than guessing which part of the tree owns it.

WHY IT EXISTS

It exists so bin/dashboard can stay thin under the LAZY-THIN-CMD rule while still providing built-in commands through staged helper scripts under ~/.developer-dashboard/cli/dd/.

WHEN TO USE

Use this file when you need to understand how a built-in dashboard subcommand is staged and handed off after helper extraction into the home runtime.

HOW TO USE

Users normally reach this helper through dashboard open-file. For debugging, inspect the staged copy under ~/.developer-dashboard/cli/dd/open-file after helper staging.

WHAT USES IT

It is used by bin/dashboard after helper staging has placed the home-runtime wrapper at ~/.developer-dashboard/cli/dd/open-file.

EXAMPLES

dashboard open-file

That is the user-facing route. After helper staging you can also inspect the home-runtime wrapper under ~/.developer-dashboard/cli/dd/open-file.
