Is there an option to not generate the CLI?

[tchssk]

There is no such feature as standard, but it can be resolved with a plugin. https://github.com/tchssk/goaplugins/tree/master/codegendisabler

import  _ "github.com/tchssk/goaplugins/v3/codegendisabler/gen/http/cli/cli"

@tchssk thank you that was a nice workaround.

Thanks for bringing this up, #3532 should fix the original code generation issue.
