Spring shell 3 - StringInputContext not prompting for input?

I set up a new project using spring-boot(-shell) 3.0.3 and I'm just trying to capture some inputs and return them. When I pass in the arguments using ShellOption everything works fine, but I wanted to try out a bit more of the framework and use the input components.

However I'm getting no error when running it from powershell, yet I am also not getting prompted for my input despite following the documentation at https://docs.spring.io/spring-shell/docs/3.0.x/docs/#using-shell-components albeit with the caveat of using the new StringInputContext location since the one in the docs is seemingly now an embedded class.

Can anyone help point me in the right direction, here's a simplified snippet:

@ShellComponent
public class SomeCommand extends AbstractShellComponent {

     @ShellMethod(value = "Ask and return2")
    public String ask2() {
        StringInput component = new StringInput(getTerminal(), "What to return?", "");
        component.setResourceLoader(getResourceLoader());
        component.setTemplateExecutor(getTemplateExecutor());
        StringInput.StringInputContext context = component.run(StringInput.StringInputContext.empty());
        return context.getResultValue();
    }
}

I saw https://stackoverflow.com/questions/25991910/spring-shell-command-prompt-exits-immediately-does-not-await-user-input but I am not opening the prompt from within IntelliJ, but from within powershell & cmd prompt.

The dependencies are minimal: you may use JLine without any dependency on *nix systems, but in order to support windows or more advanced usage, you will need to add either Jansi or JNA library.
