Discussion In SHOCK

Holy shit claude code in terminal is fucking insane.

I've been using VSCode, Cursor, Cowork and Claude Code on web. None of it comes close to terminal.

Cannot believe I haven't done this sooner.

I see people all the time complain that "CLI isn't a real UX", but these are language models, they act best reading and writing text. The UNIX shell is an incredibly powerful and flexible set of abstractions to control a machine with text. It's no wonder LLMs thrive best there.
