Serac CLI Commands

Serac provides a powerful CLI for ServiceNow development orchestration.

Core Commands

Starting Serac

# Start interactive TUI
serac

# Start with specific model
serac --model claude-sonnet
serac --model claude-opus
serac --model gpt-4

# Resume previous session
serac --resume
serac --continue

System Status

# Check system status
serac status

# Real-time monitoring
serac monitor

# Version info
serac --version

SPARC Modes

SPARC (Specification, Pseudocode, Architecture, Refinement, Completion) modes provide structured development workflows.

Available Modes

Mode	Command	Purpose
Orchestrator	`sparc`	Multi-agent coordination
Coder	`sparc run coder`	Direct implementation
Researcher	`sparc run researcher`	Investigation and analysis
TDD	`sparc tdd`	Test-driven development

Usage

# Orchestrator mode (default)
serac sparc "Create incident dashboard widget"

# Specific mode
serac sparc run coder "Implement auto-assignment business rule"
serac sparc run researcher "Analyze current incident workflow"

# Test-driven development
serac sparc tdd "Add SLA breach notification"

Agent Management

Spawning Agents

# Spawn specialized agent
serac agent spawn developer
serac agent spawn researcher
serac agent spawn reviewer

# List active agents
serac agent list

# Agent status
serac agent status <agent-id>

Agent Types

Type	Purpose
`developer`	ServiceNow artifact creation
`researcher`	Investigation and analysis
`reviewer`	Code review and validation
`tester`	Testing and QA

Swarm Coordination

Multi-agent swarms for complex tasks.

# Start swarm with objective
serac swarm "Build HR portal with self-service features"

# Swarm options
serac swarm "objective" --strategy parallel
serac swarm "objective" --strategy sequential
serac swarm "objective" --mode development
serac swarm "objective" --monitor

Swarm Strategies

Strategy	Description
`parallel`	Agents work simultaneously
`sequential`	Agents work in order
`adaptive`	Dynamic coordination

Task Management

# Create task
serac task create "Implement feature X"

# List tasks
serac task list

# Task status
serac task status <task-id>

# Orchestrate complex task
serac task orchestrate "Multi-step implementation"

Memory Operations

Persistent memory across sessions.

# Store data
serac memory store <key> <data>

# Retrieve data
serac memory get <key>

# List all keys
serac memory list

# Search memory
serac memory search <query>

# Clear memory
serac memory clear

Configuration

# Configure ServiceNow instance
serac config instance <url>

# Set credentials
serac config auth

# View configuration
serac config show

# Reset configuration
serac config reset

Authentication

# Authenticate with ServiceNow
serac auth servicenow

# Authenticate with enterprise services
serac auth enterprise

# Check auth status
serac auth status

# Logout
serac auth logout

Environment Variables

Variable	Purpose
`SNOWCODE_MODEL`	Default AI model
`SNOWCODE_DEBUG_TOKENS`	Enable token debugging
`SNOWCODE_LOG_LEVEL`	Logging verbosity
`SERVICENOW_INSTANCE`	ServiceNow instance URL

Common Workflows

Starting Development Session

# 1. Start serac
serac

# 2. In TUI, create Update Set first
# 3. Develop features
# 4. Complete Update Set when done

Debugging Token Usage

# Enable token debugging
SNOWCODE_DEBUG_TOKENS=true serac

# Check debug output
cat .snow-code/token-debug/debug-*.jsonl | jq .

Multi-Agent Development

# Start swarm for complex feature
serac swarm "Build customer portal" --strategy parallel --monitor

# Monitor progress
serac monitor

TUI Shortcuts

Inside the interactive TUI:

Key	Action
`Ctrl+C`	Cancel current operation
`Ctrl+D`	Exit
`Tab`	Autocomplete
`Up/Down`	Navigate history
`/help`	Show help
`/clear`	Clear screen
`/debug`	Toggle debug mode

Best Practices

Always start with Update Set - Track all changes
Use SPARC modes - Structured development
Monitor tokens - Watch context usage
Persist memory - Save important data
Use swarms - For complex multi-part tasks
