Merged
Conversation
Add non-interactive output modes for `speakeasy status` command to support AI agents, CI/CD pipelines, and automation: - `--output summary` (default): Visual boxes with lipgloss styling (TTY required) - `--output console`: Plain text with aligned key-value pairs (no TTY) - `--output json`: Structured JSON for programmatic access Console mode features: - Section headers with target counts - Aligned key-value formatting - Explicit Status and Version fields - No spinner (works without TTY) JSON mode features: - Clean stdout (no log messages) - Nested objects for timestamps, actors - Structured fields (language, name, sdkVersion) - Easy to parse programmatically Closes GEN-2345
