Found while dogfooding the locally built cdidx.
Evidence
Unlike search, validate does not support the same output-shaping controls (--limit, JSON array format variants, or focused filtering). This made it harder to use in the same audit loop as other query commands.
Expected
Bring validate closer to query-command output conventions, including limit/top support and predictable machine-readable result shaping.
