"In Progress" status?

Hi! Trying out Dex for the first time. Did some work to get my Opencode config aware of its existence, and seeing how it feels with a personal project. Hoping to use it as a substitute for the ad-hoc Markdown task checklists I'd been generating.

One immediate thing that would help: would it be possible to add some "In Progress" status? I realize this immediately leads off towards "RECREATE LINEAR FROM SCRATCH" :) But my own workflow is pretty human-in-the-loop, not multi-agentic, and I'd like to be able to tell it "mark task X as started" and then I'd have a /dex-complete command to tell it to mark the current task as done for bookkeeping.

Other than that, first couple hours of playing with Dex seem pretty encouraging!

@markerikson no real reason we shouldnt have it. I avoided it originally (it kept trying to add it!) just because I thought it was overkill. But no reason you couldnt just.. not use it. I def think its more useful tho for multi-agent stuff so you can cclaim things but Ive personally avoided those flows. Will take a look as im going to hack on some things tonight

Thanks! Also, I don't see a --version flag? Might be worth adding.
