I built a CLI tool for Buildkite. If you run the CLI from a Git repo, it can:

- automatically find the Buildkite build that’s running the current Git commit
- wait for that build to finish
- Open the build in your browser
- if the build fails, download error logs and display them in the console
- if the build passes, display timing information for each phase of the build
- Display information about pull requests or any annotations that are configured.

The best way to see how cool it is is to try it out. Please give it a try!

Hey @kevinburke this is awesome! Nice work 👌

We’re actually working on an official CLI revamp as well at [GitHub - buildkite/cli: A command line interface for Buildkite.](https://github.com/buildkite/cli). Written in Go as well even. It would be great if we could collaborate on this, looks like we both have some different functionality that would be good to incorporate. Please open a PR if you’d like to contribute any of your functionality into ours 🙏
