Flag Context Sensitivity

Some short flags change meaning per command — use long-form (--app, --target) when ambiguous:

• -a: app name (ls/add/run), audience (logon), add mode (label), no-attr (get/put)
• -t: timeout (run/shell), target user (passwd/lock)
• -r: remote path (get/put), retry (shell)
