So negative! Where I work this tool is called “new-hires”. It uses a restricted read-only API key to our third-party people tool. It was given to me by our People Director. Sometimes there are lines beginning with - but the tool is named for the lines beginning with +.

new-hires is built on top of the “people” python module / cli in our monorepo. That tool is so much more useful than just a way of diffing the org chart. Who is in what team, where are they, are they working today, is it time to celebrate their anniversary, etc. It also follows what I coin the “ZFS litmus test” for good CLI tools by providing -pH for parseable, headerless output.

Treasure such places indeed.
