What does this PR do?

This change is to add a placeholder CLI: nv-modelopt.

We will gradually integrate the model optimization pipelines currently scattered in many example scripts into this CLI tool.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

Establishes CLI infrastructure for Nvidia Model Optimizer by adding license headers and module documentation to the CLI package init file, creating a new placeholder CLI entrypoint module with a main function, and registering a console script entry point in project configuration.

Changes

Cohort / File(s) Summary
CLI Package Initialization
modelopt/cli/__init__.py
Added SPDX license header and module docstring for the CLI package. No functional code changes.
CLI Entrypoint
modelopt/cli/nv_modelopt.py
New module containing a main() function with placeholder message indicating work-in-progress status and standard Python script execution guard.
Project Configuration
pyproject.toml
Registered console script entry point nv-modelopt mapped to modelopt.cli.nv_modelopt:main in [project.scripts].

argparse-based CLI: import argparse, create ArgumentParser(description=...), add
at least a --version/--help flag (or a dummy subcommand) so users get standard
help, call parser.parse_args() (not parse_known_args) so unknown flags raise an

or version; update the public main() function to perform this parsing before
printing so --help and invalid flags behave correctly.

Add argument parsing to reject invalid flags and provide help output.

main() is the public CLI entry point for nv-modelopt but doesn't parse sys.argv. This means nv-modelopt --help and invalid flags both silently collapse to the placeholder message, providing a poor user experience and failing to follow standard CLI conventions. Add a minimal argparse stub to parse arguments, provide proper help output, and fail fast on unknown flags.

Suggested implementation
+import argparse
+
 
-def main() -> None:
+def main() -> int:
     """Program entry point for the nv-modelopt CLI."""
+    parser = argparse.ArgumentParser(
+        prog="nv-modelopt",
+        description="NVIDIA Model Optimizer unified CLI.",
+    )
+    parser.parse_args()
     print(
         "Nvidia Model Optimizer (modelopt) Unified CLI Tool! This is currently a placeholder. The functionality is WIP."
     )
+    return 0
