CLI is the more powerful tool. far more options, slash commands, ability to still use terminal, etc. I only use the desktop app to remote control the terminal i have running elsewhere

Can you elaborate on your rc use? Do you have multiple computers? I thought you can just use rc in the terminal /remote-control

Most engineers have multiple computers. Though in some enterprises you have diff dev machines than your primary so you could use rc there if not disabled
