""GUI is less verbose with the nitty gritty hidden in expandable sections, ""
? The GUI has nothing to do with that.
If you use Chat / Work / Code <- that's the differentiation.
So 'Code' in 'Gui' is identical to Claude Code except for the visual layout.
If you use Work or Chat, which are not optimized for Coding you'll see a different experience.
If you use iTerm or Ghostty and set a key combo to switch tabs you can very easily switch between tabs and the TUI generally gives more dense information.
Usually people migrate to TUI not the other way around.
I think that there are reasons to use GUI - if there is deeper integration with Git or an issue tracker - or - in VSCode - for navigating files etc. - definitely those things are valid.
But for raw AI the getting a TUI to work the way you want it is ideal.
