v1.12.0 — type the tool's name, get the answer (36 tools)

pip install --upgrade clibo    # or: pipx upgrade clibo  ·  uv tool install -U clibo

Headline: bare command = the answer

Across 36 of 74 tools in clibo, typing clibo X (with no
subcommand) now runs that tool's dominant summary — instead of
showing help. The agent mental model — "type the tool's name,
get the answer" — now works everywhere it makes sense.

clibo caffeine        # ☕ Caffeine today · Sun 24 May
                      #   • 07:00   coffee — 200 mg
                      #   200 mg total today (limit 400)

clibo bills           # 🔔 Bills due this week
clibo plants          # 🔔 Plants needing water
clibo split           # ⚖️ Balances · who owes whom
clibo expense         # 💸 Spending · 2026-05 by category
clibo workout         # 🏋️ Today's workout
clibo writing         # ✍️ Today · 1200/500 w · streak 🔥

The same --help flag still shows the menu; every existing
subcommand (add, log, list, edit, rm, stats, …) works
identically. Pure UX additive.

The 36 tools updated, by category:

Category	Tools
Health & Wellness (12)	calorie, water, mood, sleep, steps, workout, meds, vitals, habit, caffeine, fasting, symptom
Money & Finance (5)	networth, bills, expense, income, donations, subs, split
Productivity & Work (5)	focus, time, events, journal, worklog, challenge
Home & Life (5)	chores, plants, documents, packages, meals
Hobbies & Culture (5)	gratitude, writing, mileage, flashcards, dreams, stretches

Other wins since v1.11.0

• 🤒 vitals log dispatcher: clibo vitals log temp 39.2
  works alongside clibo vitals temp 39.2. Verb-shape uniformity
  with the rest of the codebase. vitals log bp 120/80 slash
  shorthand included.

• 💊 meds take auto-creates: clibo meds take "Vitamin D"
  now works without a prior meds add. The natural "I took an
  aspirin" flow needs no ceremony. --strict preserves the old
  fail-on-unknown behaviour. Numeric IDs always strict (no
  fat-finger creation). Plus meds edit/stop/rm accept name.

• 🚗 car drive: business / personal / commute mileage
  tracking. clibo car drive "Acme meeting" --mi 47 -c business.
  car stats includes drive_by_category[] for tax-time totals.

• Sentinel bug fix: ctx.invoke() in the bare-command
  callbacks doesn't resolve Typer ArgumentInfo/OptionInfo
  sentinels. Caught + fixed during the rollout; every callback
  with optional args now passes explicit defaults so empty-DB
  bare commands don't error with Error binding parameter.

By the numbers

• 1,061 tests (+113 since v1.11.0), ruff clean
• 74 tools (unchanged this release — pattern, not new surface)
• 8 iterations stacked (99 → 107)
