fix(sim-cli): an unknown option lists the command's own flags

[waleedlatif1]

Summary

When a CLI call uses an unknown option, the error now lists that command's own flags:

error: unknown option '--row-ids'
Options for sim tables rows batch-delete: --filter <json|@file>, --limit <value>, --row <value...>, -y, --yes

Commander only suggests a flag when the spelling is close. --row-ids is too far from --row, so the caller got a bare unknown option.

Agents guess this flag because the sibling commands use --file-ids and --table-ids. In the mothership DE1 bench (kit-8, 20261009t065013z), Opus 5.5 ran tables rows batch-delete --row-ids …, got the bare error, looked the command up, and then retried with --row. That is three calls for one delete.

The fix is in the CLI's existing parse-error formatter, which already adds the -- example for ids that start with a dash. That behaviour is unchanged; the id case does not list flags. Every caller benefits, both humans and the embedded CLI the copilot uses.

Type of Change

• Bug fix

Testing

• New embed-isolation.test.ts case:
  • a guessed --row-ids gets the flag list, including --row <value...>;
  • a dash-prefixed id still gets Example: sim audit-logs get -- -X9abc and no flag list.
• The new case fails without the change.
• packages/sim-cli: vitest 476/476, type-check clean, biome clean.

[Medium impact] The PR appears safe to merge.

Summary

Unknown options now list the command’s visible flags. Dash-prefixed IDs still get the -- example when the command accepts positional arguments.

• The latest change also lists flags for ID-shaped tokens when the command has no positional arguments.
• The added test checks this case alongside guessed flags and dash-prefixed IDs.
• No new actionable issues were found.
