Overview
--------
Version 1.1.9 represents a major overhaul focused on command standardization, enhanced user
experience, and developer accessibility. This comprehensive update introduces unified command
syntax across all operations, advanced search capabilities, and a new developer mode for
testing and development purposes. The update emphasizes consistency in command terminology
and provides multiple ways to interact with games using folder names, game names, or IDs.
Key Changes
-----------
Enhanced Search Commands & Game Discovery

• Revolutionary 'search game [searchterm]' functionality with intelligent fuzzy matching
• Interactive numbered selection system for search results with 1-20 game display
• Advanced matching algorithms supporting exact match, starts-with, contains, and partial word matching
• Minimum search term validation (2+ characters) for better results
• Streamlined user interface with type-and-enter input replacing single keypress selection
• Enhanced error handling and input validation for improved reliability
• Removed unnecessary confirmation prompts for smoother workflow

Unified Command Architecture

• Standardized command syntax across search, list, and delete operations
• Universal support for three identification methods:


• Game/Bundle ID (cg0000/cb0000 format)


• Game folder name (directory-based lookup)


• Game name (fuzzy matching with library database)
• Consistent error messaging and user feedback across all commands
• Improved command parsing with comprehensive parameter validation

Comprehensive List Command Overhaul

• Complete restructuring of list functionality with new 'list all' syntax
• Multi-format game information display:


• 'list all' - basic installed games overview


• 'list all -d' - detailed view with version checking and update status


• 'list [id]' - specific game info by ID


• 'list game [name]' - specific game info by name with fuzzy matching


• 'list gamedir [folder]' - specific game info by folder name
• Advanced display options:


• '-d' flag for detailed descriptions, requirements, and metadata


• '-tree' flag for complete file structure visualization


• Combined '-d -tree' for comprehensive information display
• Real-time version checking with automatic update detection
• Enhanced game metadata presentation with safety information and system requirements

Enhanced Delete Operations

• Multi-method game deletion supporting all identification formats:


• 'del [id]' - deletion by game/bundle ID


• 'del game [name]' - deletion by game name with fuzzy matching


• 'del gamedir [folder]' - deletion by folder name
• Intelligent game resolution with JSON file scanning for accurate identification
• Enhanced confirmation dialogs displaying game information before deletion
• Improved error handling with descriptive failure messages
• Force deletion option (-y flag) for automated workflows

Developer Mode Integration

• New developer mode for testing and development without account requirements
• Secure activation via Ctrl+Q + "devmode" combination at login prompt
• Alternative activation methods for compatibility across different environments
• API call blocking for offline development and testing
• Seamless toggle functionality between normal and developer modes
• Automatic credential clearing when switching modes for security
• Version update suppression in developer mode to prevent unnecessary warnings

Advanced Help System

• Comprehensive help documentation with standardized formatting
• Command-specific help pages for detailed usage instructions
• New 'help -list-all' and 'help -a' commands for complete command reference
• Improved help navigation with consistent terminology
• Enhanced examples and use-case documentation
• Better organization of command categories and functionality

User Experience Improvements

• Eliminated redundant confirmation prompts for streamlined workflows
• Enhanced input validation and error recovery mechanisms
• Improved console output formatting for better readability
• Consistent command response patterns across all operations
• Better handling of edge cases and invalid input scenarios
• Streamlined game identification processes with multiple fallback methods

Technical Enhancements

• Robust JSON file management for game metadata persistence
• Enhanced game library integration with improved search algorithms
• Better memory management and credential caching systems
• Improved error logging and debugging capabilities
• Enhanced compatibility with different PowerShell environments
• Advanced pattern matching for flexible command interpretation

Security & Stability

• Secure developer mode implementation with proper credential isolation
• Enhanced error handling preventing crashes during command execution
• Improved input sanitization and validation across all user inputs
• Better session management with automatic cleanup procedures
• Enhanced logging capabilities for troubleshooting and debugging

Backward Compatibility

• Full compatibility maintained with existing v1.1.8 command syntax
• Seamless migration path for users upgrading from previous versions
• Preserved existing workflows while adding new functionality
• Maintained API compatibility with CCLS backend services

This major update transforms the CLI tool into a more powerful, flexible, and user-friendly
application while maintaining the reliability and performance users expect. The standardized
command architecture and enhanced search capabilities make game management significantly more
intuitive, whether users prefer working with IDs, folder names, or game names directly.
