# Weatherreporter CLI
`weatherreporter` generates Markdown weather reports, runs scheduled report
batches, and inspects previously generated artifacts.
## Shortest Useful Command
```sh
weatherreporter generate daily --date 2026-05-29 --out ./daily.md
```
This loads configuration, fetches weather data, writes managed workspace
artifacts, runs `scriptorium render` as a preflight check, runs
`scriptorium run`, and writes an extra Markdown copy to `./daily.md`.
## Commands
```text
weatherreporter --help
weatherreporter generate daily [--config PATH] [--units VALUE] [--tz NAME] [--out PATH] [--date YYYY-MM-DD]
weatherreporter generate tomorrow [--config PATH] [--units VALUE] [--tz NAME] [--out PATH]
weatherreporter generate three-day [--config PATH] [--units VALUE] [--tz NAME] [--out PATH]
weatherreporter generate weekend [--config PATH] [--units VALUE] [--tz NAME] [--out PATH]
weatherreporter generate storm [--config PATH] [--units VALUE] [--tz NAME] [--out PATH] --start TIME --end TIME
weatherreporter run morning [--config PATH] [--units VALUE] [--tz NAME] [--out-dir PATH]
weatherreporter run evening [--config PATH] [--units VALUE] [--tz NAME] [--out-dir PATH]
weatherreporter inspect reports [--config PATH] [--limit N]
weatherreporter inspect metadata [--config PATH] RUN_ID
weatherreporter inspect briefing [--config PATH] RUN_ID
weatherreporter inspect data-package [--config PATH] RUN_ID
weatherreporter inspect prior [--config PATH] RUN_ID
weatherreporter inspect sources [--config PATH] RUN_ID
```
`generate` commands write briefing, data package, preflight, report, and
metadata artifacts under the configured workspace. `generate storm` requires
explicit event-window bounds with `--start` and `--end`.
`run morning` generates Daily Today and the 3-Day Outlook, plus Weekend Outlook
except on Sunday. `run evening` generates the Tomorrow Planning Brief. Batch
runs continue independent reports after a failure, print a JSON summary to
stdout, write compact status lines to stderr, and return nonzero when any report
failed.
`inspect` commands read existing workspace artifacts and emit JSON to stdout.
They do not fetch weather data or invoke `scriptorium`.
## Flags
- `-h`, `--help`: show help.
- `--config PATH`: load configuration from `PATH` instead of `/usr/local/etc/weatherreporter/config.yml`.
- `--units VALUE`: override configured Weather API units for `generate` and `run`.
- `--tz NAME`: override configured Weather API timezone for `generate` and `run`.
- `--out PATH`: write an extra Markdown report copy for `generate` commands.
- `--out-dir PATH`: write extra Markdown report copies for `run morning` and `run evening`.
- `--date YYYY-MM-DD`: optional date for `generate daily`; defaults to the current local date in the configured timezone.
- `--start TIME`: required start time for `generate storm`.
- `--end TIME`: required end time for `generate storm`.
- `--limit N`: maximum records for `inspect reports`; defaults to `20`, and `0` means no limit.
Storm times accept `YYYY-MM-DDTHH:MM` in the configured timezone or RFC3339
timestamps with explicit offsets.
## Common Workflows
```sh
weatherreporter generate tomorrow --out ./tomorrow.md
weatherreporter generate three-day --out ./three-day.md
weatherreporter generate weekend --out ./weekend.md
weatherreporter generate storm --start 2026-05-29T18:00 --end 2026-05-30T06:00 --out ./storm.md
weatherreporter run morning --out-dir ./reports
weatherreporter run evening --out-dir ./reports
```
## Inspection
```sh
weatherreporter inspect reports --limit 10
weatherreporter inspect metadata 20260529T100000.000000000Z_daily_today
weatherreporter inspect briefing 20260529T100000.000000000Z_daily_today
weatherreporter inspect data-package 20260529T100000.000000000Z_daily_today
weatherreporter inspect prior 20260529T100000.000000000Z_daily_today
weatherreporter inspect sources 20260529T100000.000000000Z_daily_today
```
`inspect reports` lists recent generated runs with artifact paths and source
warning counts. The other inspect commands require a RunID. `inspect prior`
returns the prior comparable snapshot metadata selected from stored metadata, or
`null` when none exists. `inspect sources` shows source provenance and source
warnings without dumping full weather payloads.
