Goal

Add a --strict mode to the healthcheck

Three phases, in this order. ## Phase 1 — --strict on the healthcheck scripts/orchestra_e2e_healthcheck.sh --strict must reject an unrecognised flag: print unknown flag: <flag> on stderr and exit 2. Without --strict the current silent-ignore behaviour is unchanged, and --help still wins from any position. ## Phase 2 — cover --strict in the existing self-test Extend scripts/orchestra_e2e_selftest.sh, which already asserts the plain and --json runs. Add assertions that --strict --nonsense exits 2 and that --strict alone exits 0. Keep its existing fail() helper and its existing assertions. ## Phase 3 — keep the pinned usage text honest scripts/test_healthcheck.sh pins the healthcheck's exact --help output in a hardcoded USAGE variable. Phase 1 changes nothing about --help, so this phase only confirms the pin still holds. Verify this phase by running the pinned test itself: - run: ["bash", "scripts/test_healthcheck.sh"] ## Constraints The project's verification policy allows exactly two command shapes: ["bash", "-n", ""] ["bash", "scripts/orchestra_e2e_healthcheck.sh"] ## Research first Establish at least three findings with distinct confidence: at least one fact, one inference, one assumption. Cite at least two in References.

## Goal Add a --strict mode to the healthcheck Three phases, in this order. ## Phase 1 — `--strict` on the healthcheck `scripts/orchestra_e2e_healthcheck.sh --strict` must reject an unrecognised flag: print `unknown flag: <flag>` on stderr and exit 2. Without `--strict` the current silent-ignore behaviour is unchanged, and `--help` still wins from any position. ## Phase 2 — cover `--strict` in the existing self-test Extend `scripts/orchestra_e2e_selftest.sh`, which already asserts the plain and `--json` runs. Add assertions that `--strict --nonsense` exits 2 and that `--strict` alone exits 0. Keep its existing `fail()` helper and its existing assertions. ## Phase 3 — keep the pinned usage text honest `scripts/test_healthcheck.sh` pins the healthcheck's exact `--help` output in a hardcoded `USAGE` variable. Phase 1 changes nothing about `--help`, so this phase only confirms the pin still holds. Verify this phase by running the pinned test itself: - run: ["bash", "scripts/test_healthcheck.sh"] ## Constraints The project's verification policy allows exactly two command shapes: ["bash", "-n", "<one file>"] ["bash", "scripts/orchestra_e2e_healthcheck.sh"] ## Research first Establish at least three findings with distinct confidence: at least one `fact`, one `inference`, one `assumption`.

Drop the byte-exact USAGE pin from test_healthcheck.sh 7d04aef94d

Restore the byte-pinned USAGE test_healthcheck.sh from master ec0502f829

7d04aef replaced the byte-exact USAGE pin with a shape check that requires
every long flag grepped from the healthcheck source to appear in --help.
--json was already undocumented before this task, so that check was red on
arrival and it also dropped the 'unknown flag ignored' assertion on --bogus,
the only pin on the no---strict silent-ignore path.

The accepted plan's phase 3 is 'no edit': --help is untouched by --strict, so
master's version passes as-is.

Change of direction before this merges. Two things, both deliberate:

--strict must not live in the healthcheck argument loop. Move all flag parsing into a new scripts/flags.sh that orchestra_e2e_healthcheck.sh sources, and keep the healthcheck body free of flag branches.
--strict must exit 1, not 2.

The goal is unchanged: a strict mode that rejects unknown flags. I know this contradicts the route the accepted plan took.
