Research direction

Start by reviewing the existing CLI entry points and comparing them with the rest of the API to identify which methods are unavailable from the CLI. The issue names no files or tests; done would require a rewritten CLI with as much API method parity as practical for the next major release, including the referenced node-semver pull request.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

semver:major

The CLI is useful for things it can do, but lacks feature parity with the rest of the API. As part of the next major release, the CLI should be rewritten to allow for as many methods as possible to be called via the CLI.
