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:

• python3 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.
