Can I export conversations in a human-readable format?

Yes, by using the 'conversation dump --html' command, you can generate a timestamped HTML file that provides a clear, readable view of the entire interaction.

What is the benefit of using the -p flag?

The -p flag allows you to provide a direct task to the CLI without entering interactive mode, making it much easier to test specific functionality and automate verification steps.

Why should I use debug mode instead of release for CLI testing?

Debug builds via 'cargo build' are significantly faster to compile and provide better diagnostic information, which is essential for rapid iteration during the debugging process.

How does conversation cloning help with debugging?

Cloning creates a duplicate of a buggy conversation, allowing you to attempt reproduction and fixes multiple times while preserving the original state for comparison.
