// As of M6.1 phase 3, all CLI commands dispatch through a single
// `cmdline::App` declared in `run()` below. The previous per-command
// `cl::App` build + `parse_cmd_args(...)` double-parse is gone; each
// `cmd_*` now takes the already-parsed `ParsedArgs` and reads from it.
// `cmdline` handles `--help` / `--version` / unknown-option errors itself.

// Custom top-level help. cmdline's auto-generated `print_help` is a fine
// default but its layout (`USAGE:`, no command-specific blurbs) doesn't
// match what the e2e tests assert against — they check for `Usage:`
// (mixed case) plus `mcpp new` / `mcpp build` literals. We keep the
// canonical printer here so the docs/CHANGELOG examples don't drift
// every time cmdline tweaks its formatting.
