Refuse an option no command reads before the command runs - #135
Conversation
No command refused an option it does not read, so a guessed or mistyped one was passed over and the command ran without it: `memory add local --dry-run` added the memory, `repos add <url> --privat` recorded the repository as public, and `--relay=wss://...` fell back to the relay in the config. The options the CLI reads are now listed once, in args.ts. flag, optionValue and a new hasFlag accept only listed names, so TypeScript rejects reading an option that is not listed, and the dispatch refuses any other option before the command runs. The list replaces the partial VALUED_OPTIONS and MCP_VALUED_OPTIONS sets positional() used.

- Line 84: Update the argument-scanning logic around VALUED_OPTIONS so an unused
valued option cannot blindly consume an option-like token: validate that token
against the selected command before skipping it. Preserve mcp add --args --stdio
as a valid operand.
Review comments at @packages/cli/test/options.test.ts:
- Around line 38-39: Update the tests around refuseUnknownOptions to assert the
value returned by flag(argv, "args") for both --stdio and -y,pkg, rather than
only checking that no error is thrown. Keep the assertions at the argument layer
unless the test specifically claims to verify arguments received by the server.

…-command The check skipped the word after any option that takes a value, and the list is shared by every command, so an option the command never reads hid the next word: `memory add local --args --dry-run` passed the check and added the memory. A word starting with `-` there is now checked as an option. `--args` beside `--command` still skips it, because mcp add hands that value to the program, as in `--args --stdio`. The test for that case now also asserts that flag reads the value.

- Line 84: Restrict the `handsArgsOn` exception in argument validation to the
intended MCP command path; currently `hasFlag(argv, "command")` lets commands
such as memory add skip validation of unknown options like `--dry-run`. Pass the
selected command into validation and apply the exception only when that command
supports forwarding arguments.

The exception keyed on --command being on the line, so `memory add local --command server --args --dry-run` still skipped --dry-run as the value of --args and added the memory. The dispatch now passes the exception only for mcp with --command, the one command that hands --args to another program. Tests run both lines through the CLI: the memory line is refused and leaves agent.yaml unchanged, and `mcp add --command <program> --args --stdio` records --stdio as the server's argument.

sageox-agent memory add local --dry-runadded the memory, andrepos add <url> --privatrecorded the repository as public. Now the line exits 1 withunknown option: …and the command does not run.

It now fails withwrite --relay wss://…, not --relay=wss://….How the CLI knows its options
Refusing before the command runs needs the options named before it runs. Until now they were named only inside the commands, in 75

The 75 calls compile unchanged, and the 15 checks becamehasFlag(argv, "x"). The list replaces the partialVALUED_OPTIONSandMCP_VALUED_OPTIONSsets thatpositional()used.-is checked as an option even right after an option that takes a value, so an option the command never reads cannot hide it:memory add local --args --dry-runand--relay -nare refused. The exception is--argsonmcp addwith--command, the one place its value is handed to another program:mcp add --command <program> --args --stdiostill passes--stdioon.
