### IT-1: Delete removes credential file from account store
- **Given:** Two accounts saved: `work@acme.com` (active) and `old@archive.com`. Both have `.credentials.json` files in `~/.persistent/claude/credential/`. Active marker (`_active_{hostname}_{user}`) reads `work@acme.com`.
- **When:** `clp .account.delete name::old@archive.com`
- **Then:** `deleted account 'old@archive.com'` on stdout, exit 0.; account file removed from store
