They all have their warts, but "just pick cobra/kong/cli" is what I go with these days. I'm still partial to Cobra because of the nice autocompletion scripts it generates for me so I get tab-completion for free.

This is the correct answer. Just use Cobra, the automatic autocomplete is the best UX for users.

I’ve also tried all of them. cobra is more than good enough and what issues remain in 2025 are easily and reliably worked around to be non issues.
