+# Antibody
+
+[antibody][antibody] is the legacy plugin manager antidote is based upon. antidote ships with a full Zsh implementation of antibody as a standalone script as of version 1.9.5.
+
+## clitest
+
+This README serves as testable documentation using [clitest][clitest]. It can be tested with `clitest --list-run --progress dot --color always antibody.md`.
+
+We need a convenience function, `subenv`, so that test output doesn't have to have named directories embedded and we can instead use variables like `$PWD` and `$HOME`.
+
+```sh
+$ subenv() { sed -e "s|$PWD|\$PWD|g" -e "s|$HOME|\$HOME|g"; }
+$
+```
+
+Also, adding the current directory to path allows us to avoid having to do `./antibody` everytime we call it, and can simply call `antibody` without the leading `./`.
+
+```sh
+$ PATH=$PWD:$PATH
+$
+```
+
+## Commands
+
+### Version
+
+Show version with `-v, --version`.
+
+```sh
+$ antibody --version
+antibody version 1.9.4
+$
+```
+
+The `-v, --version` short and long flags are equivalent.
+
+```sh
+$ test "$(antibody -v)" = "$(antibody --version)"  #=> --exit 0
+$
+```
+
+### Help
+
+Show help with the help command.
+
+```sh
+$ antibody help
+usage: antibody [<flags>] <command> [<args> ...]
+
+A pure Zsh implementation of the legacy antibody plugin manager
+Packaged with the antidote plugin manager
+
+Flags:
+  -h, --help           Show context-sensitive help (also try --help-long and --help-man).
+  -v, --version        Show application version.
+
+Commands:
+  help [<command>...]
+    Show help.
+
+  bundle [<bundles>...]
+    downloads a bundle and prints its source line
+
+  update
+    updates all previously bundled bundles
+
+  home
+    prints where antibody is cloning the bundles
+
+  purge <bundle>
+    purges a bundle from your computer
+
+  list
+    lists all currently installed bundles
+
+  path <bundle>
+    prints the path of a currently cloned bundle
+
+  init
+    initializes the shell so Antibody can work as expected
+
+$
+```
+
+The`-h, --help` flags show help too.
+
+```sh
+$ test "$(antibody help)" = "$(antibody -h)"  #=> --exit 0
+$ test "$(antibody -h)" = "$(antibody --help)"  #=> --exit 0
+$
+```
+
+### init
+
+Use `source <(antibody init)` to initialize antibody. The `init` command produces a script that wraps antibody for dynamic plugin loading.
+
+See what the output produces:
+
+```sh
+$ antibody init | subenv
+#!/usr/bin/env zsh
+antibody() {
+  case "$1" in
+  bundle)
+    source <( $PWD/antibody $@ ) || $PWD/antibody $@
+    ;;
+  *)
+    $PWD/antibody $@
+    ;;
+  esac
+}
+
+_antibody() {
+  IFS=' ' read -A reply <<< "help bundle update home purge list init"
+}
+compctl -K _antibody antibody
+
+$
+```
