Love the idea, and I'll probably steal some code from this later but I can't help but tease. Let's REPL every API! First start by REPLing a server to serve your rest API then REPL that API by consuming it and offering a CLI for it! Great idea!
Scripting, e.g an Alexa skill/IFTT thing/MacOS automation thing.
Or just for one-offs for people who live in the terminal. Not sure I could be bothered to 'insert' from the terminal but 'gcal list tomorrow' seems pretty handy.
I guess in general using the web interface is easier, but there are some use cases.
For instance, in our project we inserted an event after each release, until now we did it manually. Using this it can be automated, being included inside our release flow in our Jenkins server.

It's just a command line tool that internally uses the official client library.
