Summary of Changes

Hello @ChanTsune, I'm Gemini Code Assist1! I'm currently reviewing this pull request and will post my feedback shortly. In the meantime, here's a summary to help you and other reviewers quickly get up to speed!

This pull request refines the command-line interface for the stdio subcommand by modifying its help flag behavior. The default short help flag (-h) is now disabled, while a dedicated long help flag (--help) has been introduced. This change aims to standardize how users access help for this specific command, potentially resolving ambiguities or aligning with broader CLI conventions.

Highlights

  • Help Flag Behavior: The short help option (-h) has been disabled for the stdio subcommand to prevent potential conflicts or enforce explicit help invocation.
  • Explicit Long Help: An explicit long help option (--help) has been added for the stdio subcommand, ensuring that help information is still accessible.

Code Review

This pull request disables the short help option (-h) for the stdio subcommand, while retaining the long version (--help). This is accomplished by using clap's disable_help_flag attribute and then manually re-adding a --help argument. The change is consistent with the pattern used for the list subcommand and appears correct and well-implemented. I have no further suggestions.
