The entire concept that we need to cater CLIs to agents at all should tell us how far away they are from being “junior devs” or “an intern” and I reject the premise.

A lack of structured output has never been a blocker for agents to work, that’s a traditional coding problem.

“Write good help text and error messages” is just good design which is self evident.
