also, this assumes humans are still the primary CLI consumers. With agents increasingly being the first-class users of command-line tools, building visual design tooling for terminal UIs feels like optimizing for a shrinking audience.

Agents aren't picky with UI, so most effort will always be spent designing for humans, even if they are not the primary consumers.
