The guard in the four bunli-based CLIs inspected only tokens starting
with `--`, so an undefined short flag bypassed it: bunli discarded it,
the search ran unfiltered, and the CLI exited 0. Live against jobnet,
`search -q "sygeplejerske"` returned all 18,179 ads as a successful
search against 667 for the real `--search-string` query - the same shape
as review finding F13 that motivated the guard.
Both dash forms are now checked. Declared shorts (jobindex's -q) and
bunli's built-in -h/-v stay valid. A negative number is rejected too:
bunli discards a `-`-prefixed token rather than consuming it as the
previous flag's value, so `--radius -5` silently fell back to the
default instead of failing its own min(1) schema; a value that must
begin with a dash uses the `--flag=value` form.
Fixes#426.

Silently discarded flags produced silently wrong results: jobdanmark
with --query (its real flag is --text) returned all 13,862 jobs as if
they matched, exit 0, empty stderr - indistinguishable from a real
result set. The four bunli CLIs get an argv preflight built from each
command's own options object; linkedin and freehire validate parsed
flags against per-command known sets. help/version still pass, and
add-portal.md's existing bogus-flag-exits-1 contract now holds for the
reference implementations contributors copy. One linkedin pin updated:
"--jobage-minutes -5" now fails as UNKNOWN_FLAG (the stray -5 token)
rather than BAD_ARG - same loud-failure invariant, earlier gate. Review
finding F13 (2026-08-19), decision approved by Mads.
