It depends on click, colorama for cross-platform terminal colors, mistletoe for markdown parsing, domdf-python-tools for utility functions, and typing-extensions for type hints. The package is actively maintained, supports Python 3.7 through 3.13 on both CPython and PyPy, and carries a permissive MIT license.\n\nThe library is designed for developers building command-line tools who want to extend click's capabilities with additional console-related features. It offers optional enhanced terminal support through an optional psutil dependency. With low installation friction and no security vulnerabilities, it integrates cleanly into existing click-based projects.","worth_installing":"Yes, if you are already using click and need additional console utilities. The package has low install friction, active maintenance, no vulnerabilities, and a permissive license. However, verify first that the specific utilities it provides align with your CLI needs, as the fact sheet does not detail which click enhancements are included."},"id":"consolekit","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/consolekit","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/consolekit.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/consolekit/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2026-07-28","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"consolekit","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"Additional utilities for click."},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":777108,"position":5088,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"2.0.0"}
