On this page

A jadpo fmt command names a path that isn't there or isn't a .jadpo file.

Area 14, Tools; not declinable; the next step is usually the agent's.

Why Jadpo refuses it

jadpo fmt formats a folder or one .jadpo file. A path that isn't there, or a file of another kind, would leave nothing formatted, and saying it was would be wrong.

What it looks like

The path is misspelt:

shell
jadpo fmt app.jadp
jadpo fmt

error app.jadp doesn't exist

reason
There is no file or folder at this path.
next
Give the path of a .jadpo file or a folder (agent)
rule
cli.fmt_arguments
help
https://jadpo.dev/docs/errors/cli.fmt_arguments

(agent) at the end of the next: line means your coding agent can make the fix itself.

How to fix it

If you meant the whole project, leave the path out:

shell
jadpo fmt

Every .jadpo file in the project is formatted.
