dry-run
Installation

Problem: Commands make real changes - creating files, spawning agents, modifying state, executing git operations. Testing commands on production workflows risks unintended modifications.
Solution: Add --dry-run flag that:
- Executes all read operations (for accurate analysis)
- Simulates all write operations (shows what would change)
- Previews agent spawns (shows what Task() calls would occur)
- Reports state changes (shows YAML mutations)
- Outputs standardized summary (consistent format across commands)
The result: Safe command testing with full visibility into intended effects.
