ptool

ptool runs Lua scripts and injects a standard library for practical automation.

The main entrypoint today is:

ptool run <file>

When a script runs, ptool exposes its API through the global ptool table and the shorter alias p.

ptool.use("v0.1.0")

ptool.run("echo", {"hello", "world"})

• CLI-oriented helpers for running commands, parsing arguments, and asking for interactive input.
