Phase 5 spec §1.2 — deferred to Phase 6+.
Singular alias forms. nsc ls device (plural-only is the v1 stance).
Scope
- Curated singular aliases for the most common resources:
device, prefix, tenant, vlan, site, rack, interface, cable, tag. Each maps to its plural form (devices, prefixes, ...).
- The bundled SKILL.md is updated to mention "singular forms also work" — currently §"What NOT to do" pins plural-only.
Why deferred from v1
v1 picks plural-only as the canonical form to keep the dynamic command tree predictable. Singular aliases are ergonomic sugar that's easier to add than to remove (we'd be promising to keep them stable).
Acceptance
nsc ls device works identically to nsc ls devices for all curated singular forms.- An alias-not-found error suggests the plural form (
Did you mean 'devices'?) for resources outside the curated singular list.
- SKILL.md updated.
