Terminad is a really interesting approach to rendering markdown in the CLI. It deliberately doesn't render links, so you can always see both the link text and the URL.
In a browser you have hover to see URLs, but not necessarily in a terminal.
AI agents (OpenClaw, Hermes Agent etc) seem to be increasingly standardising their design.
You have a UI for the markdown files writable by the agent (sometimes just Obsidian) plus a set of CLI tools for performing actions.
I've seen so many new CLIs recently too.
Today I learnt that you can mix HTML inline in markdown! For example, the following is valid.
Foo <hr/>
I'd assumed that you needed HTML separately, like ``` blocks, but no: https://spec.commonmark.org/0.31.2/#raw-html
Admittedly HTML is very restricted on most sites, but it's helpful for SSGs.
