If anyone else is also interested in this, I found a satisfactory
solution to prompt for passwords in R.app using AppleScript. It is now
available in the 'askpass' package on CRAN.

On my Mojave iMac
commandArgs()
returns
on RStudio
[1] "RStudio" "--interactive"
on Mac GUI
[1] "R" "--no-save" "--no-restore-data" "--gui=aqua"
and on R command line
[1] "/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Resources/bin/exec/R"
so maybe test for that?
