description	Follow the Unix rule of silence — output nothing on the happy path. Use when designing CLI tools, scripts, or any program that runs unattended.

The app should not output anything for the happy path, in the spirit of the Unix rule of silence.

Reference: https://www.linfo.org/rule_of_silence.html

Only produce output when something noteworthy happens — errors, warnings, or explicitly requested information. A program that is silent on success composes well with other tools and does not clutter logs or pipelines.
