Code Review

This pull request standardizes the multiline input prompt to a single-character prompt, which improves UI consistency across the CLI. The changes in cmd/cli/commands/run.go are straightforward and correctly implement this standardization. To further enhance maintainability, I recommend defining the new prompt string as a constant to avoid duplication, as detailed in my specific comment.
