I am definitely interested in a set of composable CLI tools that talk to the
server, for basic operations like search, show, add/remove labels, etc.

The server implementation is pretty heavily tied to a particular index and
store mechanism. It's not clear to me how (or whether) the CLI tools will
allow you to swap out different implementations.
