Made a Bitbucket CLI because gh spoiled me and Atlassian still hasn’t shipped one
For the last few years I’ve been spoiled rotten by GitHub’s gh CLI. gh pr create, gh pr list, gh repo clone never leave the terminal, never touch the web UI for the boring stuff. It just works.
Then work happened, and work uses Bitbucket Cloud. And Bitbucket… does not have an official CLI. There’s the REST API, there’s curl, there’s a handful of half-abandoned community tools, and there’s the web UI that I’d rather not look at. So every PR became a context switch back to the browser, and every “list my open PRs” turned into a clickfest.
So I built one: bb a Bitbucket Cloud CLI that tries to feel simular to gh.

And yes — I’m fully aware of the irony of hosting a Bitbucket CLI on GitHub. In my defense, have you tried discovering an open source project on Bitbucket lately? Exactly. (Also: PRs welcome, even if you have to use gh pr createto send them. 😂 )
Happy to hear feedback, feature requests, or war stories from anyone else stuck in the Bitbucket-at-work / GitHub-at-home dual life.
