Can it help design Terminal User Interfaces (TUIs)?

Yes, it includes expertise in visual hierarchy, typography, and component patterns like lists and detail views specifically optimized for monospace terminal environments.

What command structure does it follow?

It enforces a consistent pattern of tool > command > subcommand followed by values and flags, mirroring the patterns used by industry-standard tools like the GitHub CLI.

How does this skill help with CLI accessibility?

It provides guidelines on using punctuation for screen reader pauses, avoiding color-only meaning, and supporting high-contrast terminal themes to ensure all users can use your tools.

Does it support automation and scripting?

Absolutely; the skill ensures that all interactive elements have flag-based alternatives and provides machine-readable output options to ensure compatibility with shell scripts and piping.
