Is there a CLI/TUI start menu like tool, with favorites/categories?

Or even better, a whole status bar at the top/bottom (also without X/wayland/framebuffer), with time, battery, maybe even launched background processes listed you can bring to front?

No reason that we can’t have some Desktop metaphor niceties on shell too, no?
