I don't manage any Blender renders, so this isn't for me, but if you want to use Python for the TUI part as well you can use Textual [0].

A lot of the Textual based programs[1] can be run without having to install them with uvx, i.e.:

  uvx --python 3.12 textual-demo
  uvx usolitaire

The Blender group already has batching job queue managers called Flamenco:

The client is cross platform, and only requires a network share.

It may be wise to add any features you need to the project... =3

Cannot speak highly enough of the projects released by the fine folks at Textualize thus far, starting with Wil McGugan's "Rich" and everything that they've built around that fantastic "running start". It's truly revolutionized how text / console UI is done in Python. :)
