CLI application libraries, updated versions (readline and spf13/cobra console).
A cobra command console: https://github.com/reeflective/console: this library targets a much more restrained set of application developers, which are interested in closed-loop CLI applications with specific sets of commands, and generally deprived of any specific syntax outside the one-liner command model. It relies on the `readline` library above, which is tightly integrated so as to provide a console application much more powerful than most, with complete support for the [spf13/cobra](https://github.com/spf13/cobra) library.

Show HN: New set of Go libraries for CLI Development
flags aims to merge the concepts from https://github.com/jessevdk/go-flags, and https://github.com/octago/sflags, both relying on struct tags to define CLI command specs. The flags library uses these underlying concepts to produce complete `cobra.Command` trees, and brings many comfort-of-life improvements for the generated applications/commands.

Libraries for CLI and console applications
Console (https://github.com/reeflective/console) This library wraps the readline library (described below) and leverages cobra commands in order to provide a closed-loop console working with cobra commands out of the box, also providing many comfort-of-life features at minimum cost, like support for oh-my-posh prompt engines, different menus and much more.

Which packages do you recommend for building cli tools?
https://github.com/jessevdk/go-flags provides a pretty neat way to specify flags and handle commands. Not so much extensible as cobra, but good enough for small cli tools

Eclipse: python-fire inspired library to simplify creating CLIs in Go, on top of Cobra
Yeah, I just didn't need the command-subcommand scheme. I used the go-flags test file for examples: https://github.com/jessevdk/go-flags/blob/master/example_test.go
