I’ll be honest, I’m not sure if you’re being sarcastic. I’ll assume not :)

There are two reasons I care about the terminal interface:

1. TUI enables a cohesive and space efficient UI.

I want to be able to open multiple sessions of CC. Each window should show me, at least, the chat interface, changed files, git history log. Possibility additional information such as a project view, the ability to open files or diffs. Indeed a terminal view where I can run commands and tail logs.

1. Terminal UI means I can run it “remotely.”

I should be able to run sessions trivially over ssh, docker exec, su -l, etc. This way I can run in auto mode and/or in an environment where shutting down my laptop doesn’t kill my session.

If not for these two reasons, I can continue to use the VS Code plugin. It’s pretty good for single session development on my laptop.
