@PepijnSenders hey, thanks for sending this in. I don't use the Agent SDK so I think I don't grasp the full utility of this. From what I can see basically it extracts the message contents and prints that and filters out a lot of noise. Is that kind of accurate? I'm just curious to know more like what pain point does this solve, does it speed up your workflow, etc. Is it configurable? Like what if I want the contents and the tokens and nothing else - can I do that? Also you mention syntax highlighting and stuff but are there examples of that? Sorry, maybe I'm just confused about the docs. Like the image at the top is pretty. But then the image next to "The Solution" is kind of... plain(?) Like if I see "pretty printer" I'm hoping for like charmbracelet type.

OK I'm kiiiind of getting the picture I thiiink? But this image is really confusing to me.
