dotenv-flow-cli is a command-line interface (CLI) tool designed to execute shell commands with environment variables loaded from `.env` files using `dotenv-flow`'s sophisticated loading logic. It automatically processes different `.env` files based on the `NODE_ENV` and other `dotenv-flow` conventions, allowing for environment-specific configurations (e.g., `.env.development`, `.env.production`, `.env.local`). The current stable version is 1.1.1, with the last publish date over two years ago, suggesting a maintenance or stable cadence driven by its upstream dependencies, `dotenv-flow` and `dotenv-expand`. Its key differentiator from `dotenv-cli` is the reliance on `dotenv-flow`'s specific cascading `.env` file loading strategy, which includes support for `development`, `test`, `production`, and `.local` overrides, along with automatic variable expansion. It is intended as a direct wrapper, providing a convenient executable for managing environment variables for CLI commands.
