@dodojin_xr @lifesinger In fact, I am not advocating.

I think about this trend more from the technical and engineering levels.

In the future, CLI will be very helpful for models and agents in terms of usage and operation specifications and ease of operation.

Contextual engineering is not to say that CLI should replace GUI.

The two can complement each other.

CLI has greater value on the engineering side and has many more tools for models.
