I see.
However, I would say my feature request is still standing.
What I am suggesting with {{{tor-cli}}} (#21541) is a replacement for the
following cumbersome procedure.
{{{
socat - UNIX-CONNECT:/var/run/tor/control
echo "AUTHENTICATE $(xxd -c 32 -g 0 /var/run/tor/control.authcookie | awk
'{print $2}')"
}}}
If I did that above, and entered {{{SETEVENTS circ}}}, then I could see
events as they happen. Easy. No manual reading besides Tor control
specification.
Currently {{{tor-prompt}}} is more like a python interpreter that
simplifies getting up a Tor control connection. What I am suggesting with
{{{tor-cli}}} is a simple tool to talk use Tor's control connection
automating the two above commands.
Just clarifying my idea. Of course I understand should you not wish to
implement this.

Not at the moment. Thank you! :)
