  1. Rovo Dev is unstopable, and I have the impression I was not as bad 2 days ago.
    I may have type in a wrong command and it want to do something I do not want it to do, and nothing can stop it.
    1. I select 'Deny" from the menu > it moves on doing some other stuff
    2. Hit [Esc] nothing happens
    3. Hit Ctrl-C doesn't help until it kills Rovo all together (also my cursor is gone in the terminal window)

Actually I wanted to test it further and report more issues, but this bug makes it already unusable.

I can't even report the current version as there is no command within Rovo Dev nor `--version` does anything.

```

$ acli rovodev run --version
Usage: atlassian_cli_rovodev run [OPTIONS] [MESSAGE]...
Try 'atlassian_cli_rovodev run --help' for help.
╭─ Error ──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────╮
│ No such option: --version Did you mean --verbose? │
╰──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────╯
✗ Error: failed to execute the command

```

 

2) Overall many command missing which I am used to have with all the other AI CLI dev tools like Claude Code (The reference"), Gemini CLI, Qwen Code CLI, Cursor CLI, ...

3) It would be great if at least the commands and key short cuts would be identical to the current "standard", nonody wants to learn/remember different ones for Revo.

Well. that's all for now. Even if it is free it is - at least as of today - not woth spending more time with it ...

@Sven Meyer I love the "more bugs and annoyances here" Totally hear the frustration. The freeze/unstoppable-run bug is a known issue in the current Rovo Dev CLI. Ctrl-C and Deny don’t reliably stop the session, and several standard dev-tool commands (like --version) aren’t implemented yet. The workaround is to restart the CLI and toggle Dev CLI off/on in admin settings. Atlassian is actively fixing the runaway-session bug and expanding command parity with other AI CLIs.
