Hit my limit last sprint when a junior on the team couldn't run our smoke checks because the "team workspace" seat cap was full. We were literally locked out of testing our own API until someone upgraded a plan. That was the moment I started ripping things out.

The part that bugs me most is how much of this is artificial. A request is a URL, a method, some headers, a body, maybe a script. None of that needs a cloud account, telemetry, or a proprietary collection format to run. But every mainstream client now treats sign-in and sync as the default path, and the local-only flow gets worse every release.

Same pattern with the "AI" features that quietly ship your request bodies somewhere you didn't ask about.

Would love to know what others here are doing.

Anyone running their API tests fully offline and in Git, or is everyone just paying the per-seat tax and moving on?

How do you think a CLI Runner will enhance a API Client?
