Here's my two cents. I wouldn't care about jumping through few services. In certain cases you will also have single sign-on enabled so multiple tools is not a problem. Let's say I have n platforms I am using. Now I use kloudi, now I have to managed n+1 platform. I don't see an inherent value of this platform that would pull me towards using this platform long term. I will always be afraid that you will always have one-off integration issues.

The value add I see is having a consistent interface to all your tools through the CLI.

When your entire workflow is CLI based, having access to your tools from the CLI is really valuable. Unforutunately, I'd wager that the people that this applies to are the first to write their own wrappers for their tools to fit their exact workflows.

This would have been interesting for me, if I hadn't already gone through the effort of writing a bunch of jira/confluence/bitbucket/jenkins CLI wrappers.

What does the CLI wrappers you built actually do?
