maybe something like this? i don't think it's fully correct, but in the direction of correct: gist.github.com/AndyAyrey/21b9… this would provide a surface like `mj auth` (starts auth flow, interactive or token-based) `mj imagine "prompt" --params` (familiar from discord) `mj vary jobid:img --strong` `mj lineage jobid:img` the web ui and discord both have a lot of statefulness - default model, personalisation, etc. i reckon most of these are optional in a CLI - they're affordances that help a human do less typing. if i'm using a CLI, i'm likely using it within claude-code, shell scripts, or weird experimental shit like 'autodream ralph loop which tracks my eye gaze and generates variants of what i look at'. in all of these cases, the human is not the typist. the really cool thing about this is that i could do a ton of brainstorming with claude or similar while having MJ open on another monitor watching the progress. i could then go into the UI to riff on some of my favourites, and hand back off to claude. for agent navigation/handoff, the unlock is: - filterable, sortable lists of jobs and images - the ability to inspect the lineage of an image this affords interactions like: "hey claude, i really loved that theme you were exploring earlier. i riffed on it and found a new direction - check out the latest upscale i just made and follow the lineage to understand my decision-making process to get there. what directions and divergences have we not thought of yet?" or "claude, can you pipe this over to [figma-cli] and create a design system that follows the aesthetic of my latest 10 upscales?" with this, i think my MJ use would explode from $20ish a month to $200 - $500 a month. its by far the most beautiful image model, but too often the beauty gets stranded in midjourney's garden, rather than leaking into other parts of my work and practice.
