Hello, looks nice! I had a few thoughts:

- I'd consider adding support for libvips smartcrop, ICC colour management, HDR, image alpha

- can you join pipelines? you could have one making a background, one making a foreground, then composite them, for example

- your benchmarks don't measure peak memory use, it can be a useful thing to test, especially if people are processing large images (eg. the output of every modern smartphone sigh)

- have you benchmarked against nip4, the official libvips GUI? it has a CLI mode you can run with GNU parallel

- I agree, a CLI mode for your tool sounds useful
