Consider using a pretty library to render markdown straight on the command line, for example glamour (golang) or rich (python).

I had a great time with all the charmbracelet libraries, like bubbletea for building TUIs and lipbgloss for styling. rich is a similar, awesome python library.

Even simple shell script verbs provide great extension capability for users. For even bigger impact, provide a simple wrapper framework like gh does, that allows extensions written in go to easily call the main tool itself.
-
configuration files. A few command line option libraries provide the option to use a configuration file alongside the command line parser (for example viper in golang). Otherwise, nothing is easier to use a JSON, YAML, or TOML parser to read in defaults and overrides.
