coolguyandClaude Opus 5 eff5cbfb12 docs: make the CLI the source of truth for ferro-vm commands
명령 목록이 tools/README.md와 argparse 정의 두 곳에 손으로 동기화되고 있었다.
드리프트가 불가피하므로 목록을 --help로 단일화한다.

cli.py에 서브커맨드별 help/description, 인자 metavar, 예시 epilog를 채웠다.
put의 DOS 8.3 이름 제약처럼 명령에 직접 붙는 함정은 해당 도움말에 넣었다.
tools/README.md는 호스트 요구사항, 셋업, 자동화 구조로 줄이고 목록은 --help로
넘긴다. AGENTS.md에는 CLI가 규범이라는 포인터를 남긴다.

# Development tools
## Host support
Automation currently supports **Windows 10/11 only**. It requires `uv`, QEMU
with WHPX support, and `ffmpeg.exe` on `PATH`. The Python implementation uses
portable APIs where possible, but other hosts are not supported yet.
## Getting started
```powershell
uv run ferro-vm start
uv run ferro-vm status
```
The command list lives in the CLI itself, not in this file:
```powershell
uv run ferro-vm --help
uv run ferro-vm <command> --help
```
Working rules, verification gates, and DOS build traps are in `AGENTS.md`.
## How it fits together
`TCPAGENT.EXE` runs inside FreeDOS and dials out to `127.0.0.1:5558`; its wire
protocol is documented in `tcpagent/README.md`. The `ferro-vm` daemon owns that
connection and the QEMU monitor. Local commands reach the daemon over the
Windows named pipe `\\.\pipe\ferrolang-vm` — there is no controller or observer
TCP port.
The daemon writes an append-only structured log (`uv run ferro-vm logs`, which
uses `lnav` when installed and otherwise falls back to PowerShell `Get-Content
-Wait`). It records command metadata, DOS output, exit status, transfers, and
agent lifecycle events as UTF-8 lines, and deliberately never logs raw binary
payloads or protocol hex.
`reset` quits QEMU cleanly, restarts it, waits for FreeDOS to boot, submits the
default boot-menu Enter, and requires a TCPAGENT `PING`/`PONG` before returning.
QEMU `system_reset` is intentionally unsupported: repeated soft resets leave the
FreeDOS NE2000 packet driver stuck during initialization.
## Standalone OCR
`tools/qemu_ocr.py` remains available for OCRing an existing image:
```powershell
uv run python tools/qemu_ocr.py --image .qemu/qemu-screen.png
```
