### BREAKING CHANGES
* `rdme openapi` is deprecated and will be replaced in
`rdme@10` by a command with a simpler flag setup based on community
feedback.
* deprecates commands that are not supported in ReadMe
Refactored. For more information, please visit our migration guide:
https://github.com/readmeio/rdme/tree/v9/documentation/migration-guide.md
## 🧬 QA & Testing
Does the copy in these deprecation warnings make sense to you? Note that
the links will be broken for now since we haven't tagged a proper v9
release yet, but that will be fixed once this release is out!
* the topic separator (i.e., what separates a command
from its subcommand) has changed from a colon to a space by default. For
example, `rdme openapi:validate` is now `rdme openapi validate`. The
colon topic separator will continue to be supported so there is no need
to change any existing commands, but all documentation and help screens
will reflect the space topic separator.
## 🧬 QA & Testing
Do tests still pass?
* dropping support for Node.js v18. The minimum required
Node.js version is v20.10.0.
* `rdme validate` has been removed, use `rdme
openapi:validate` instead.
* `rdme open` is now deprecated
also updates our docs accordingly
* the `rdme` GitHub Actions is now a [the `node20` JavaScript action](https://docs.github.com/en/actions/sharing-automations/creating-actions/metadata-syntax-for-github-actions#runs-for-javascript-actions) rather than [a Docker container action](https://docs.github.com/en/actions/sharing-automations/creating-actions/metadata-syntax-for-github-actions#runs-for-docker-container-actions).
* `rdme` is now powered by [`oclif`](https://oclif.io/). The formatting and content of certain error messages and outputs may have changed. Please continue to only utilize exit codes to determine command successes/failures.
completed tasks:
- [x] a handful of tests are still failing, hoping that
https://github.com/oclif/test/pull/652 gets merged in)
- [x] github actions dry runs are failing (but i got them working in
* **versions:** this flips the `isPublic` flag to `hidden`.
* removes several deprecated commands
* chore: knip cleanup
* chore: type fixes for tests
* removes several deprecated commands
* Node.js >= 18 required
