Usage

mlenvdoctor exposes a CLI for daily use and a small Python API for tools that need structured diagnostic objects.

CLI Reference

Command Use when Example
doctor You want the highest-signal summary mlenvdoctor doctor --guided
diagnose You need the complete table or exports mlenvdoctor diagnose --full --json issues.json
report You want JSON and HTML reports together mlenvdoctor report --output-dir mlenvdoctor-report
fix You want a safe plan or generated requirement files mlenvdoctor fix --plan
dockerize You need a Dockerfile for a model stack mlenvdoctor dockerize tinyllama --service
stack You want recommended dependency pins mlenvdoctor stack llm-training
mcp serve You want assistant/tool integration mlenvdoctor mcp serve

Diagnose

mlenvdoctor diagnose --full --json issues.json --html issues.html
mlenvdoctor diagnose --full --json issues.json --html issues.html
mlenvdoctor doctor --ci
mlenvdoctor doctor --json

Guided Recovery

mlenvdoctor doctor --guided

Use this for beginners, workshop environments, bootcamp labs, and teammate handoffs. It compresses many low-level checks into the top root-cause finding.

Python API

from mlenvdoctor.api import diagnose

issues = diagnose(full=True)

for issue in issues:
    if issue.status.startswith(("FAIL", "WARN")):
        print(issue.check_id, issue.severity, issue.fix)

The API returns DiagnosticIssue objects with stable fields:

Field Meaning
name Human-readable finding name
status PASS, WARN, FAIL, or INFO with detail
severity critical, warning, or info
check_id Stable machine-readable check identifier
category Runtime area such as pytorch, gpu, docker, or system
fix Recommended action
evidence Short evidence lines collected during the check

Use JSON for external automation

Use mlenvdoctor doctor --json for compact triage. Use mlenvdoctor diagnose --json - when another tool needs all raw checks.
