[Feature]: Improve --help output so that suffices #559

Description

@kcarnold

The default agent context takes up a lot of context.

What if CLAUDE.md just said "run backlog --help" and the output of that gave it enough to go on? If it needed more guidance, it could run backlog SUBCOMMAND --help.

Simon Willison has been getting a lot of mileage out of this idea, e.g., look for --help in https://simonwillison.net/2026/Feb/10/showboat-and-rodney/
