//! Extension command and flag descriptors.
//!
//! These pure data structs allow providers to declare their extension
//! commands and provider-specific flags without depending on clap.
//! The obz shell reads these descriptors at startup and registers them
//! as real clap subcommands and arguments, giving full tab-completion
//! and `--help` support.
//!
//! # Design contract
//!
//! Every field in [`FlagDescriptor`] maps directly to a clap argument
//! attribute. obz must be able to losslessly convert a `FlagDescriptor`
//! into a `clap::Arg` without losing any information.

/// The value type of a provider-specific flag.
///
/// Maps to clap's `value_parser` and determines the Rust type used when
/// obz reads the parsed value back out of `ArgMatches`.
