# Task 01 — `tidalctl` CLI

**Goal:** ship a tiny, dependency-light binary that inspects an embedded tidalDB home.

## Deliverables
- `tidalctl status --path <dir>` and `tidalctl paths --path <dir>` commands.
- Shared crate for serialization so CLI can read builder `Config` dumps atomically.
- Documentation on how to vendor the CLI into host repos (cargo install or binary download).

## Acceptance Criteria
- Works against both temp homes and long-lived dirs.
- Output is JSON by default with `--pretty` option.
- `cargo test -p tidalctl` exercises happy/error paths.
