## API
### Adding and Upgrading Tools
To add a new tool, execute the installation script:
```bash
install.sh <tool>
```
#### Example
The following command will add `lefthook` to the tracked tools if it is not already installed, or update its version:
```bash
install.sh github.com/evilmartians/lefthook@v1.11.10
```
Behind the scenes, the script performs a few simple steps:
- Creates a Go module under the `.citools/src/<toolname>` directory to track the tool version and its dependencies.
- Creates a reference to the tool binary in the `.citools/Variables.mk` file.
### Using Tools in the Makefile
Our Makefile imports `.citools/Variables.mk`, so you can call a tool binary using standard Make syntax.
#### Example
```make
run:
$(bra) run
```
### Using Tracked Tools Without the Makefile
If you want to use a tool outside of the Makefile, you can locate the tool binary by executing the following command:
```bash
GOWORK=off go tool -n -modfile=<path_to_modfile> <toolname>
```
