Does it support color for terminal output?

Yes, it includes optional color modes supporting ANSI 256 colors, allowing you to add visual depth to your CLI feedback where terminal support is available.

How does this skill handle non-interactive environments like CI/CD logs?

It includes specific fallback rules that automatically switch from single-line carriage return updates to static log lines, ensuring the output is readable and searchable in systems like GitHub Actions or Jenkins.

Is it compatible with different terminal fonts?

The skill focuses on ASCII-only defaults to avoid the layout issues often caused by ambiguous-width Unicode characters, ensuring a consistent look across all terminal emulators.

What logic does it use for 'indeterminate' tasks?

For tasks where the duration is unknown, it provides multiple spinner styles that utilize single-line refresh logic to show activity without cluttering the screen.

Can I customize the width of the progress bar?

Yes, you can specify a custom width (defaulting to 40 characters). The skill also ensures the percentage field remains fixed-width to eliminate visual jitter during high-speed updates.
