I built https://terminalwire.com around the idea that CLIs are a great way to interact with web applications.
Turns out the approach works well for integrating web apps with LLMs. I have a payroll company using it in their stack to replace MCP and they’re reporting lower token usage and a better end result.
Re CLI: In fact it seems to be very similar to command line in AutoCAD (you can do things visually with mouse or choose to draw via CLI). With LLMs it is more sophisticated (intelligent) because you are not limited with set of predefined commands.
