I do think as a general rule GUIs are superior to CLIs and I would much rather use a GUI
im scared of the terminal sorry

Stop putting CLIs on your scripts. CLIs are not reproducible. You’re never going to remember the 6 arguments you fed into the script. CLIs are for libraries, not for running a job.

@rmi.bsky.social you'll be delighted to know I'm on day two of being dragged on Mastodon for making fun of CLIs

LLMs are not at all the same as CLIs. anyone telling you they're interchangable is lying

Thank you! 🙌
Typer is now the Python library to build CLIs with most GitHub stars ✨
It just surpassed Click a few days ago (it's still built on top of Click) 😅
To celebrate, a small release, 0.14.0 🎁
Thanks @patrick.wtf and @oxykodit.bsky.social for the help 🙇♂️

clis are winning because we haven't seen broad enough adoption of standardized self-describing APIs (i.e. OpenAPI)
Alarmed at this trend of people finally realizing MCP is a pointless abstraction, then skipping right over publishing a regular boring API, and instead launching new CLIs for agents to use for some reason. It’s baffling.

Unix-style CLIs are an idea that might just last a thousand years.

Me, 6 months ago: "I think people are really overemphasizing CLIs now, I like things visual, I need an IDE"
Me, now: I think I can actually uninstall VS Code because I'm not sure when the last time I used it was.

Make your Node.js CLI start faster:
Enable compile cache at startup. It uses on-disk V8 code cache for faster warm starts.
typescript.js benchmark: 130ms -> 80ms
Best for CLIs that load lots of code.

Xcode, @jetbrains.com IDEs, Zed, and dozens of other tools (CLIs, desktop, web, and mobile apps) all use ACP to talk to agents. Open source, no lock-in. What's preventing you from adopting?

Building CLIs usable by humans is difficult with AI because it is so good at working around tons of manual, painful steps that have zero usability
