The Rise of the CLI Agent

Graphical interfaces are great for exploration, but for raw productivity, the Command Line Interface (CLI) reigns supreme. Now, imagine a CLI that doesn't just execute commands, but understands intent.

Notice how the agent autonomously decides to read the file first before attempting a fix. This "Check-Plan-Act" loop is what differentiates an Agent from a simple script.
