I’m being slowly forced to use a GUI at work, and it’s fine, but I simply prefer the TUI.

I use:

claude agents

Granted, I run it as a terminal tab in my editor so that I can look at files. I prefer the TUI in a tab instead of the editor’s half-assed plugin. These days, however, I mostly look at PRs in the browser.

For my personal work I still prefer to let the agent edit the local files so I can preview the changes in my editor. I avoid PRs in my personal work.
