//! The command line of `headwater`, declared once and derived.
//!
//! # What this replaced, and the contract that went with it
//!
//! Until [HW-DR-0033](../../../../docs/decisions/0033-q33-whether-the-command-line-is-derived-and-who-a-flag-belongs-to.md)
//! the parse was a loop over `std::env::args()` in `main`, with thirty-three
//! arms that read a flag and twenty that read a verb. Every flag of the binary
//! was admitted before the verb was decided, so a flag belonging to another
//! verb was accepted and did nothing: `headwater check --level L0` exited 0 and
//! wrote the report that `headwater check` writes. Two interface contracts and
//! [spec 12](../../../../docs/spec/12-check-layer.md) stated that as a promise.
//! The decision record withdraws it. A flag belongs to the verb that reads it,
//! and a verb refuses a flag it does not.
//!
//! # Why the types are a library and not a module of the binary
//!
//! An integration test cannot reach an item of a `[[bin]]` target, which is why
//! `tests/verbs.rs` used to read `main.rs` as **source text** and scrape the
//! `["word", …]` patterns out of it. A scrape is a parser of Rust that nothing
//! holds, and it would go blind the moment the arms stopped being written by
//! hand. With the surface here, that test holds [`command`] against
//! [`headwater_verbs::VERBS`] in both directions, over the tree `clap` itself
//! builds.
//!
//! # Where the words come from, and what is deliberately absent
//!
//! No `about` on a verb and no summary is written in this file. [`command`]
//! reads both off [`headwater_verbs::VERBS`] and puts them on the tree, because
//! a summary written here would be the fifth hand-kept copy of the verb list
//! that [#257](https://github.com/headwater-ai/headwater/issues/257) was filed
//! about. The correspondence is by command line rather than by a name repeated
//! at each variant: [`command`] walks the table and calls `mut_subcommand`, so
//! a verb renamed in one place and not the other is a verb the walk in
//! `tests/verbs.rs` reports.
//!
//! **A flag is the other way round, and for the reason `HW-DR-0033` gives.** A
//! flag belongs to the verb that reads it, so its description is written at the
//! declaration of that flag, here. `engine/crates/cli/tests/help.rs` holds every
//! argument of every command in the tree to carrying one, which is what stops
//! the next flag arriving undescribed the way `--facet`, `--tier`, `--arm`,
//! `--category` and `--seed` did.
//!
//! **A global flag is described once and printed twice.** [`GLOBALS`] carries a
//! one-line summary beside each description, and [`first_screen`] prints the
//! summaries rather than letting `clap` print the descriptions. The description
//! is the one `clap` propagates onto every verb page, so the long form is
//! reachable everywhere it was, and the screen a reader meets first is a list
//! rather than five paragraphs.
//! [HW-DR-0042](../../../../docs/decisions/0042-q42-what-one-screen-means-for-the-first-help-screen.md)
//! rules that, and it rules out `Arg::long_help` as the way to do it: `clap`
//! renders `long_help` for `--help` and `help` for `-h`, so the two spellings
//! would stop printing the same text.
//!
//! **A `///` comment on a derived item becomes help text.** The commentary on
//! the types below is `//` for that reason, and the module documentation you
//! are reading is `//!`, which `clap` does not read either. A house-style doc
//! comment on a variant or a field would be printed to a caller.
//!
//! Color is declared off. Nothing here emits an escape sequence, which is the
//! state the binary was already in and the state its recorded fixtures read.
//! `--no-color` is declared anyway, and it is declared as what it is: a caller
//! who writes it out of habit is answered rather than refused, and its help
//! says outright that this binary has no color to turn off. That is the
//! opposite of a flag whose name implies an effect it does not have.
//!
//! **The width is decided in [`paint`] and never by the terminal.** Every string
//! below is folded before `clap` sees it, because `clap` cannot fold at all in
//! this workspace and the feature that would let it reads the terminal. So the
//! strings here are written as one long line each and reach a caller folded.

/// "The format is `text`" is not the test. `headwater capture --format text`
/// exists and lays nothing out, and so does every other verb that prints text
/// nobody folded. What is laid out is the report of one verb, so the check names
/// that verb and the absence of a machine format on it.
///
/// # Why it reads two flags for one format
///
/// A machine format reaches this verb under two names. `--format json` is a
/// value, `--json` is a boolean, and
/// [HW-DR-0033](../../../../docs/decisions/0033-q33-whether-the-command-line-is-derived-and-who-a-flag-belongs-to.md)
/// rules that the two are one target under two spellings. A predicate that read

/// nothing, which is the exact defect the paragraph above says a third issue
/// would have been about. **Whenever a refusal narrows, every spelling of the
/// thing it narrows on has to be enumerated**, and `tests/width.rs` carries a
/// row for each.
///
/// # Why reaching this function is already the test
///
/// `clap` answers `--help` inside `try_get_matches` and returns before this
/// runs, so a run that printed help never arrives here. The one route that
/// prints help and does arrive is `headwater help <verb>`, which is a verb of
/// this binary rather than a flag, and it is the one command the check lets
/// through.
