    LLM asking me structured questions mid-workflow is the right UX for cases where context is ambiguous.

    Invaluable for approval gates in automated pipelines — the agent pauses and asks instead of guessing.

    The human-in-the-loop pattern is often missing from AI tooling. This fills the gap cleanly.

    Lightweight enough to drop into any agent setup. Works as both an MCP server and OpenCode plugin.

    The CLI interface means it's usable even without a full MCP client configured.
