# argc Plugin

argc is a Bash CLI framework that turns bash scripts into full-featured command-line tools with help messages, argument validation, and shell completions.

- `argc self version` — Print argc version
- `argc help show` — Show argc help

### Script Execution
- `argc script run` — Run a bash script with argc annotations

### Shell Integration
- `argc completions generate` — Generate shell completions (bash/zsh/fish/powershell/elvish)

### Passthrough
- `argc _ _` — Pass raw arguments to argc binary

## Usage Examples

```bash

sc argc help show --json

# Run a script with argc annotations
sc argc script run myscript.sh -- --help
