I was expecting a static binary when I downloaded the CLI, but I got a huge load of node.js files and modules. Consider packaging your node.js application up, I haven't tried it but https://github.com/nexe/nexe looks promising.
Thanks for the link. v0 cli was written in gerbil scheme (http://cons.io) but I couldn't get it to statically link on linux so I'd still have deps in the form of dynamic libs. Then I found oclif which while depending on node has a lot of what I need and will allow me to ship/iterate faster ... If the spec/features/api was fixed, I'd write the thing in golang if only for the static binaries and cross compiling but it's a relatively joyless/cumbersome language IME, so node for now at least.
I was writing a similar cli tool [1] to manage the git repositories on my own server. If you want portability, it should be fairly easy to write the cli interface in plain sh or bash, especially when most of the operations could be done on the server side. I am not sure if there is a reason to use a compiled language for this.
