Feature Request: Fix Missing Stdout and Enhance ANSI Color Support

Description

There are currently two primary issues when executing commands via the ai interface in Gemini-cli:

1. Missing Output: In certain scenarios, stdout is not being displayed at all, leaving the user without feedback on the command's execution.
2. Lack of Color Support: When output is visible, ANSI escape sequences for colors are not consistently rendered.

Proposed Changes

• Fix Stdout Stream: Ensure that all standard output from executed commands is captured and displayed reliably to the user.
• Implement ANSI Support: Enable full rendering for standard ANSI color codes (8/16 colors) so that status messages and logs are readable.

Example Issues

• Running a command that should return text results in an empty response.
• Commands like echo -e "\e[31mError\e[0m" display the raw escape codes instead of colored text.

Use Case & Benefits

• Transparency: Users need to see the output to verify that commands have run correctly.
• Error Identification: Visual cues (red for errors, green for success) significantly improve the speed of troubleshooting.
• Reliability: Ensures Gemini-cli behaves like a standard, dependable terminal environment.

Note: This request specifically addresses the Gemini-cli interface and its handling of process output.

Why is this needed?

Why is this needed?

1. Visibility: Missing stdout makes it impossible to verify if a command succeeded, failed, or is hung. Users are effectively "blind" to the process execution.
2. Standardization: ANSI color support is a baseline requirement for modern CLI tools to distinguish between errors, warnings, and success states.
3. Reliability: For AI-assisted workflows, consistent feedback from the terminal is critical for accuracy and debugging. Without it, the interface is unreliable for technical tasks.
