Pickley

Pickley is a Python library and CLI tool designed to automate the installation and management of standalone Python command-line interfaces (CLIs). It functions similarly to pipx, but with the key difference that installed CLIs automatically self-upgrade upon use. Pickley is portable and aims for zero-configuration, installing CLIs within the same directory it resides, supporting any PyPI package with console_scripts entry points. The current version is 4.6.1, and it maintains a regular release cadence with frequent updates as seen in its GitHub release history.
