fix(examples): the verbose-content test moves into the step that wires it [skip-docs]

Operator 2026-10-09: step 6 of examples/01-add-verbose-flag only added a
test for behaviour step 5 delivered - the pattern PLAN_STEP_TESTS_ONLY
warns on. It now lands in step 5 (Verify: the new test, red before the
wiring; Regression: the stability harness), the help-text step becomes
step 6, and progress.json follows (6 steps). Steps 1-2 (golden capture and
stability harness, tests of today's behaviour that cannot be red) keep
the warning; a step type for them is a wave 3 question.

### Step 5: Wire verbose output in `login`, `token-refresh`, `users-list`, `users-create`, `logout`
- **Files:** `src/commands/login.mjs`, `src/commands/token-refresh.mjs`, `src/commands/users-list.mjs`, `src/commands/users-create.mjs`, `src/commands/logout.mjs`
- **Changes:** At each internal step (3 for login, 4 for token-refresh, 2 for users-list, 3 for users-create, 2 for logout — 14 call sites total), add `if (ctx.verbose) ctx.stderr.write(\`[verbose] <step description>\\n\`);`. Step descriptions per file:
- **Files:** `src/commands/login.mjs`, `src/commands/token-refresh.mjs`, `src/commands/users-list.mjs`, `src/commands/users-create.mjs`, `src/commands/logout.mjs`, `tests/cli-verbose-flag.test.mjs` (new file)
- **Changes:** First the test, `tests/cli-verbose-flag.test.mjs`: spawn `node src/cli.mjs login --verbose alice`, capture stderr, assert exit 0, assert stderr contains all three expected verbose lines: "[verbose] parsing argv", "[verbose] credential lookup", "[verbose] issuing session token", in that order. It fails before the wiring below (no verbose lines yet): the test for a behaviour lands in the step that builds it. Then, at each internal step (3 for login, 4 for token-refresh, 2 for users-list, 3 for users-create, 2 for logout — 14 call sites total), add `if (ctx.verbose) ctx.stderr.write(\`[verbose] <step description>\\n\`);`. Step descriptions per file:
- login: "parsing argv", "credential lookup", "issuing session token"
- token-refresh: "parsing argv", "validating refresh token", "rotating session token", "persisting new token"
- users-list: "parsing argv", "querying user store"
- users-create: "parsing argv", "validating input", "writing user record"
- logout: "parsing argv", "invalidating session token"
- **Verify:** `node --test tests/cli-no-verbose-stability.test.mjs` → expected: 3 pass (stdout unchanged when flag absent)
- **Verify:** `node --test tests/cli-verbose-flag.test.mjs` → expected: 1 pass
- **Regression:** `node --test tests/cli-no-verbose-stability.test.mjs` → expected: 3 pass (stdout unchanged when flag absent)
- **Checkpoint:** `git commit -m "feat(commands): emit verbose stderr trace for 5 commands"`
- **On failure:** retry — stability tests fail → likely a stray `console.log` or `ctx.stdout.write` instead of `ctx.stderr.write`. Re-grep all five files for `stdout` mentions added in this step.
- **On failure:** retry — stability tests fail → likely a stray `console.log` or `ctx.stdout.write` instead of `ctx.stderr.write`. Re-grep all five files for `stdout` mentions added in this step. If the verbose test misses a line, check the `[verbose]` strings for typos; if its exit code != 0, check that login still works without verbose.

### Step 6: Add verbose-content test for `login`
- **Files:** `tests/cli-verbose-flag.test.mjs` (new file)
- **Changes:** Single test: spawn `node src/cli.mjs login --verbose alice`, capture stderr, assert exit 0, assert stderr contains all three expected verbose lines: "[verbose] parsing argv", "[verbose] credential lookup", "[verbose] issuing session token", in that order.
- **Verify:** `node --test tests/cli-verbose-flag.test.mjs` → expected: 1 pass
- **Checkpoint:** `git commit -m "test(small-auth): assert --verbose emits expected stderr trace"`
- **On failure:** retry — if assertion misses a line, check step 5 for typos in the `[verbose]` strings; if exit code != 0, check that login still works without verbose (regression).

### Step 7: Update `--help` text
### Step 6: Update `--help` text
- **Files:** `src/cli.mjs`
- **Changes:** At the help-text constant (`src/cli.mjs:78`), add a line under "Global flags": ` -v, --verbose emit per-step trace to stderr (single level only)`.

- TDD: stability harness (step 2) precedes behavior changes (steps 3-5),

- Steps 5 wires 5 files in one commit; this is over the 1–2 file
- Step 5 wires 5 files (and their test) in one commit; this is over the 1–2 file
guideline but is justified by symmetry — the change is mechanical
and atomic across the five files; splitting would create five tiny
commits with no test value between them.
