Bailian CLI

A command-line tool built for AI Agents — invoke Alibaba Cloud Bailian's full-modal AI capabilities from your terminal with a single instruction.

Bailian CLI (npm package bailian-cli, commands bl / bailian) is a command-line tool built for AI Agents. It exposes Alibaba Cloud Bailian's full-modal capabilities as structured tool calls. Once installed and authenticated, a single natural-language instruction lets your Agent orchestrate capabilities — text chat, image and video generation, speech synthesis and recognition, vision understanding, and more. It is compatible with mainstream Agent frameworks such as Claude Code, Qwen Code, OpenCode, Cursor, and Codex.
The CLI itself is free and open source; you are billed by actual usage of each model and application service, and new users get a free quota. Source and full docs are on the GitHub repository.
