The six console scripts (paperspec-check, -build, -validate, -load,
-stress, -site) become subcommands of a single `paperspec` command:
paperspec validate, load, check, build, stress and site. `python -m
paperspec COMMAND` runs the same thing.
- paperspec/cli/main.py builds the whole parser, apart from the commands,
so `paperspec --help` and `paperspec COMMAND --help` work without a
checkout or the tools extra; a command's module is imported only when
it runs.
- `paperspec` with no command prints the overview: what each command does,
examples, and which work anywhere (validate, load) and which need a
checkout (check, build, stress, site). Each command's help has a
description with advice, and worked examples; a misspelled command gets
a suggestion (argparse suggest_on_error); `--version` prints the version
and the pinned Unicode version.
- Each command module exposes run(args) and returns the exit status.
Arguments that parse but do not fit together raise UsageError, which
prints the command's usage and exits 2: load now also refuses
--built-from or --store without --bundle.
- The failure messages say what to do: install paperspec[tools], clone the
repository, rerun stress with the printed seed, or run paperspec build
when the rebuild check differs. check and stress say how many failures
they did not list.
- check runs the rebuild as `python -m paperspec build`.
- pyproject installs one script, `paperspec`; the pixi tasks and the docs
use the subcommands.
pixi run check passes (run here as `python -m paperspec check` with src/ on
the path); the rebuild is byte-identical. pixi.lock still needs
`pixi lock`.

Python and Unicode
- requires-python is >=3.14,<3.15: 3.14 is the only Python with the
Unicode 16.0 data the specification pins (3.13 has 15.1, 3.15 has 17.0).
- `import paperspec` raises ImportError unless unicodedata reports
paperspec.UNICODE_VERSION (16.0.0), so a source checkout or an install
that bypasses requires-python cannot compute values on other data.
Commands
- tools/{check,build,validate,load,stress,site}.py move with history to
src/paperspec/cli/ and install as paperspec-check, -build, -validate,
-load, -stress and -site; each also runs as `python -m paperspec.cli.X`.
- paperspec.cli.require() exits with "install paperspec[tools]" when
cryptography or jsonschema is missing; paperspec.cli.checkout() finds
the repository the check, build, stress and site commands work on (the
editable install's own checkout, else the one around the current
folder) and exits with a message outside one. tools/__init__.py is gone.
- validate and load read the schemas and SQL through the new
paperspec.resources.path(), which finds them in a wheel and in an
editable install alike, so they work anywhere the package is installed.
- check runs the rebuild as `python -m paperspec.cli.build`.
- build still writes the provenance tool label "paperspec tools/build.py":
it is part of every hashed and signed fixture.
- pixi tasks and the check workflow run the commands; tools/README.md
documents them, and the other docs name the commands instead of paths.
License
- LICENSE.md gives `src/` Apache-2.0 alongside `tools/`. Since the
previous commit moved the code to src/, no row had covered it.
pixi run check passes (run as `python -m paperspec.cli.check` with src/ on
the path, since this environment cannot install the entry points); the
byte-for-byte rebuild matches, so no fixture or vector changed.
pixi.lock still needs `pixi lock`.
