make: *** [Makefile:4: run] Error 2

Calling with make run install --help produces the make help as expected.

What happened?

Unable to invoke make run with arguments to pass to __init__.py.

What did you expect to happen?

make doesn't pass arguments in the same way a shell script does, so truthfully I didn't expect it to work. It would be convenient to pass an ARGS variable to make like:

make run ARGS="install starfield /home/yak/.local/share/mo2-lint/starfield -p root-builder"

We can then pass ARGS to python like:

run:
	PYTHONPATH=src/mo2-lint:src uv run src/mo2-lint/__init__.py $(ARGS)

Steps to reproduce the issue

1. Invoke make run as per the contrib docs
2. Notice it just prints the default mo2-lint help instead of accepting your args

Additional Notes

Hi there! I saw my last issue was deleted, did I do something wrong? Just wanted to make sure I didn't do something I wasn't supposed to, was just trying to report a possible enhancement. I looked to see if it was closed and had a comment but I couldn't find it.

I was unaware of this. Thanks for the info. I've made the appropriate changes.

As for your 'last issue'.. I'm not familiar. It's possible I may have deleted it by mistake, but the only recent notifications I have with your user are for this bug and the comment you made on 981 (thanks for that). What was it regarding?

I can resubmit! It was about adding the ability to install from a zip file (like the betas from the MO2 discord)
