Console output

The default. Optimized for a human reading the audit in a terminal: severity icons, color, grouped findings.

When to use it

• Local development.
• The first time you point smartspec at a site.
• Debugging a single rule by re-running with --categories <one>.

When not to use it

• Anywhere you'll parse the output (CI, agents, dashboards). Use json instead.
