Example Code

# This works

import typer

app = typer.Typer(chain=True)

@app.command()
def cmd1(ctx: typer.Context, name: str = "123"):
    print(f"In command 1  {name}")

@app.command()
def cmd2(ctx: typer.Context, name: str = "345"):
    print(f"In command 2  {name}")

if __name__ == "__main__":
    app()

# Output
In command 1  34345
In command 2  4546

## This does not work
import typer

app = typer.Typer(chain=True)
app2 = typer.Typer(chain=True)


@app.command()
def cmd1(ctx: typer.Context, name: str = "123"):
    print(f"In command 1  {name}")

@app2.command()
def cmd2(ctx: typer.Context, name: str = "345"):
    print(f"In command 2  {name}")


app.add_typer(app2)

if __name__ == "__main__"
     app()

## Output
Error: No such command 'cmd2'

Enabling chain for the subcommand makes it hard to interpret whether the next command is part of the subgroup or main group. What worked from me is to only have chain enabled for the main app but not for the subcommand apps.

app = typer.Typer(chain=True)
app2 = typer.Typer(chain=False)
