If the Claude app actually had the same level of control you get with the CLI, I kind of wonder how many people would still stick with the CLI day to day. Like, would it still feel worth it for the extra setup and terminal workflow, or would most people just default to the app because it’s simpler and already right there? I feel like the CLI’s biggest advantage is really the flexibility and how well it plugs into automation and dev workflows, but if that all lived inside the app in a clean way, it kind of blurs the line a lot.
At that point I’m genuinely not sure if the CLI would still feel like a “must-have” tool for most people, or if it would just become something a smaller group of power users keep using out of habit or preference. I’m curious how others see it, would you actually still reach for the CLI, or would you just stay in the app?
