claude 389ac2e460 style(no-slop): remove every em-dash + banned words across all modules + capstone
Apply the no-ai-slop standard (now binding in AGENTS.md): the em-dash character is
banned outright (restructured, not blind-replaced), plus the banned word/phrase
list (delve, leverage, robust, seamless, truly, unlock, etc.). 0 em-dashes remain
in modules + capstone; the only "robust" left is the planted M10 ai-change.patch
trap. Module H1 titles use a colon separator.

All deliberate teaching devices preserved; labs compile/parse (py/sh/yaml/json);
no junk. AGENTS.md updated with the hard no-slop rules.

Agent prompt: issue #42, branch feature/42-count

Run this in the tasks-app-42-count worktree. This agent's work is genuinely parallel with #43 (docs), which touches different files, and deliberately collides with #44 (clear) at cli.py's dispatch chain.


You are working in this worktree only. Do not touch any other folder.

Task: Add a count command to cli.py that prints the number of pending (not-done) tasks.

  • Add a new elif command == "count": branch to the dispatch in main() in cli.py.
  • Use the existing TaskList.pending() method from tasks.py; do not change tasks.py.
  • Print just the integer, e.g. 3.

Acceptance criteria:

  • python cli.py count prints the number of pending tasks and exits 0.
  • No other files change. (README.md, CHANGELOG.md, and tasks.py are owned by other agents; stay out of them.)

When done, commit your work on this branch with a message referencing #42, then push the branch. Stop there; the human opens and reviews the PR.
