System.CommandLine exposes every ConsoleCommand. Spectre.Console provides category menus, a command palette, and a line editor with history, Tab complete, and hotkeys. Hosts MainService so behavior matches neo-cli. No PR; local test build.
RootCommand had no action, so System.CommandLine printed Required command was not provided. Default to the interactive UI and load config.json next to the executable when cwd has none.
Copy plugins next to the exe, register plugin commands after start, and open on a show-state dashboard with connected peers. Command output is a popup with wait spinner and rerun.

Summary
neo-tui(src/Neo.ConsoleUI) is a cross-platform console UI for neo-cli (Windows, Linux, macOS). It is meant to replaceneo-gui, the Windows-only desktop app: same node (MainService), same plugins, same commands, without WinForms.It starts the same
MainServicenode, loads plugins the same way, and then shows a live show state dashboard instead of a line prompt.Docs and screenshots:
docs/neo-tui/README.mdStartup flags match neo-cli:
--config/-c,--wallet/-w,--password/-p,--db-engine,--db-path,--plugins,--noverify.Live status
The home screen is neo-cli

LocalNode.GetRemoteNodes()(address, height, user agent). The title sits on the time/uptime row; the table lines up with BLOCKCHAIN STATUS. Five rows are visible; extra peers scroll with Up/Down (also J/K, PgUp/PgDn, Home/End).M/ EnterCneo>prompt as neo-cli)HQ/ EscMenus and command output
