This feels completely speculative: there's no measure of whether this approach is actually effective.

Personally, I'm skeptical:

- Having the agent look up the JSON schemas and skills to use the CLI still dumps a lot of tokens into its context.

- Designing for AI agents over humans doesn't seem very future proof. Much of the world is still designed for humans, so the developers of agents are incentivized to make agents increasingly tolerate human design.

- This design is novel and may be fairly unfamiliar in the LLM's training data, so I'd imagine the agent would spend more tokens figuring this CLI out compared to a more traditional, human-centered CLI.
