Tests the extractFlagValue generic function and the full CLI flag
extraction pipeline (--prompt/-p and --prompt-file). Existing tests
in index-parsing.test.ts and index-edge-cases.test.ts use simplified
re-implementations; these tests cover the exact behavior including
error messages, process.exit on missing values, startsWith("-") guard,
sequential two-pass extraction, and edge cases with flag-like values.

- `spawn agents` now shows the key users need to type (e.g., `claude`)
alongside the display name and cloud count
- `spawn clouds` now shows the key (e.g., `sprite`) alongside the display
name and description
- Both commands show a usage hint at the bottom
- Error when both --prompt and --prompt-file are provided (was silently
overwriting)
- Remove duplicate agent validation in handleDefaultCommand (was loading
manifest twice without spinner, showing different error format)

Terminals without UTF-8 support display garbled characters (e.g., "â"
instead of bullets). Replace all Unicode symbols (bullets, em dashes,
arrows, check marks, box drawing) with ASCII equivalents.

* refactor: Extract duplicated prompt flag parsing into extractFlagValue helper
The --prompt and --prompt-file argument extraction in main() shared identical
patterns for flag detection, value validation, and args splicing. Extracted
into a reusable extractFlagValue() function that handles all three concerns.

* refactor: Consolidate multiple python3 JSON reads into single calls
OVH, Kamatera, and UpCloud each spawned separate python3 processes to
read different fields from the same JSON config file. Consolidate into
a single python3 call per file, printing all fields at once and reading
them with bash read. Also fixes OVH using string interpolation for the
file path instead of the safer sys.argv[1] pattern.

* refactor: Extract flyctl auth and token validation from ensure_fly_token
Split the 75-line ensure_fly_token into focused helpers:
- _try_flyctl_auth: encapsulates flyctl CLI token retrieval
- _validate_fly_token: encapsulates API validation with error reporting
The main function is now a clear sequential flow of token source attempts.
Agent: complexity-hunter
* refactor: Deduplicate retry backoff logic in kamatera_api
The two error branches (network error and HTTP 429/503) had identical
interval update and attempt increment code. Restructure with early
return for success, then unified backoff at the end of the loop.

* refactor: Remove unnecessary async IIFE wrapper in validateAndGetAgent
The function wrapped its body in `return (async () => { ... })()` when
it can simply be declared as `async function` directly.

Three new test files target gaps in existing coverage:
- index-edge-cases: tests startsWith("-") guard for --prompt/-p values, --prompt-file
validation, combined flag extraction order, and agent list truncation logic
- manifest-helpers: tests isValidManifest with unusual data shapes (arrays, strings,
numbers), corrupted cache handling, and countImplemented case sensitivity
- security-encoding: tests unicode homoglyphs, null bytes, CRLF line endings, BOM
markers, and control character handling in identifier/script/prompt validation

- Manual installation steps
3. Sprite connectivity failures now include:
- Commands to check sprite status and logs
- Steps to recreate sprite
- Support contact information
4. Sprite CLI installation now:
- Catches installation failures with helpful error messages
- Verifies installation succeeded before proceeding
- Provides manual installation instructions
5. CLI script download failures improved:
- Distinguish between 404 (doesn't exist) and other errors
- Provide specific next steps for each scenario
- Suggest checking matrix for implementation status
All error messages follow the pattern:
- What went wrong
- Why it might have happened (common causes)
- What to do next (actionable steps)

* ux: Improve error messages and user guidance across CLI and shell scripts
Enhanced error messages to be more actionable and user-friendly:
CLI improvements (commands.ts):
- Made validateNonEmptyString clearer: "is required but was not provided"
- Reordered troubleshooting steps to check matrix first (most common issue)
- Simplified 404 error message: "doesn't exist yet" vs "may not be implemented"
- Changed "Troubleshooting steps" to just "Troubleshooting" (less formal)
Shared library improvements (shared/common.sh):
- OAuth cancellation now explains why API key is needed and where to get it
- safe_read non-TTY error explains what non-interactive mode is with example
- get_resource_name error shows exact env var syntax needed
- Agent verification failures now list specific possible causes
- All improvements add context and next steps rather than just stating the problem
Hetzner library improvements (hetzner/lib/common.sh):
- Replaced technical "Remediation" with friendly "How to fix"
- Changed log_warn to log_error for error conditions (consistent severity)
- Added spacing for better readability of multi-line errors
- Made server creation errors more specific about account issues
All changes focus on helping users understand WHAT went wrong and HOW to fix it.

Fixes#59
The instanceof operator can fail in bundled/minified code or when
errors cross execution realm boundaries, causing the error:
"instanceof called on an object with an invalid prototype property"
This commit replaces all instanceof Error checks with duck typing
(checking for object with 'message' property) which is more reliable
across different execution contexts.

- index.ts: Updated handleError() and prompt file error handling
- commands.ts: Updated getErrorMessage() helper

~/.bun/bin is often NOT in PATH, causing 'command not found' after
install. Now picks the first dir already in PATH from:
1. ~/.local/bin (most universal)
2. $(bun pm bin -g)
3. ~/.bun/bin
4. ~/bin
Also consolidated PATH detection and instructions into shared helpers,
with clear shell-specific instructions when the dir isn't in PATH.

bun link only registers packages for project-level linking — it does
not create global CLI binaries. bun install -g has the same issue.
New approach:
- bun: build cli.js, copy directly to $(bun pm bin -g)/spawn (55KB)
- npm: build with esbuild, copy to $(npm bin -g)/spawn
- Both methods put the binary exactly where the runtime expects it
Also replaced brittle hardcoded file downloads with git sparse-checkout
(with GitHub API fallback), so new source files never break the installer.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
The install script had a hardcoded list of source files to download,
which broke whenever a new file was added (e.g., security.ts). Also,
openrouter.ai/lab/spawn served a stale cached version without the fix.
Now uses git sparse-checkout (fast, gets only cli/) with a GitHub API
fallback for environments without git. Adding new source files will
never break the installer again.

package.json bin points to cli.js, but it was never built during
installation. Both bun link and npm install -g failed silently because
the file didn't exist.

* refactor: extract shared test helpers and utilities
Created centralized test-helpers.ts module to eliminate duplication across test files:
**Extracted Helpers:**
- createMockManifest() - Reusable mock manifest data
- createEmptyManifest() - Empty manifest for edge cases
- createConsoleMocks() - Console spy setup
- createProcessExitMock() - Process exit mock
- restoreMocks() - Mock cleanup utility
- mockSuccessfulFetch() - Simplified successful fetch mock
- mockFailedFetch() - Simplified failed fetch mock
- mockFetchWithStatus() - Fetch mock with custom status
- setupTestEnvironment() - Test directory and env setup
- teardownTestEnvironment() - Cleanup utility
**Deduplication Impact:**
- commands.test.ts: Removed 50+ lines of duplicate mock setup
- manifest.test.ts: Removed 80+ lines of duplicate manifest data and setup code
- integration.test.ts: Removed 40+ lines of duplicate setup/teardown
**Benefits:**
- Single source of truth for test fixtures
- Consistent mock patterns across all tests
- Easier maintenance - changes to test setup in one place
- Improved test readability

* refactor: Add non-interactive mode for agent execution
Implements --prompt and --prompt-file flags to enable non-interactive
agent execution. This allows users to:
- Execute agents with a prompt and exit automatically
- Use spawn in CI/CD pipelines and automation scripts
- Pass prompts via command line or file
Changes:
- TypeScript CLI: Parse --prompt/-p and --prompt-file flags
- Security: Add validatePrompt() to prevent command injection
- Commands: Pass prompt via SPAWN_PROMPT env var to bash scripts
- Bash scripts: Detect SPAWN_PROMPT and fork interactive/non-interactive
- Help text: Document new flags with examples
Implementation:
- claude.sh: Use 'claude -p' for non-interactive execution
- aider.sh: Use 'aider -m' for non-interactive execution
- shared/common.sh: Add execute_agent_non_interactive() helper
Security:
- Validates prompts for command injection patterns
- Length limit: 10KB max
- Blocks $(), backticks, piping to bash/sh
- Uses printf %q for proper shell escaping

Added EXIT traps to ensure temporary files are cleaned up even if scripts crash or are interrupted:
**cli/spawn.sh** (2 mktemp calls):
- Line 219: Added trap after mktemp in fetch_manifest(), clear trap after mv
- Line 537: Added trap after mktemp in cmd_update(), clear trap after mv
- Removed manual rm -f calls in error paths (trap handles cleanup)
**sprite/lib/common.sh** (3 mktemp calls):
- setup_shell_environment(): Consolidated trap for both path_temp and bash_temp
- inject_env_vars_sprite(): Added trap for env_temp, clear after successful upload
**shared/common.sh** (cleanup system):
- Auto-register cleanup trap at end of file when sourced
- This activates the existing track_temp_file() + cleanup_temp_files() system
- Previously register_cleanup_trap() had to be manually called (only 1 script did this)
Impact: Prevents /tmp file leaks when scripts are killed, crashed, or interrupted mid-execution.

Changed trap commands from double quotes to single quotes so variables
expand at trap execution time instead of definition time. This prevents
security issues where variables could be tampered with between trap
definition and execution.

- test/run.sh (1 instance): trap 'cleanup' EXIT
