Responded to maintainer request for evaluation of PR scope and concerns. No code changes made.

Analysis Provided

Scope Assessment:

  • 68 commits adding 4,665 lines across 33 files
  • Core script grew 75% (979→1,713 lines)
  • ~46 commits are fixes/wip/lint iterations indicating instability
  • Added: Makefile, 4 CI workflows, 14 test files (~2,500 lines), shell completions, new CLI commands

Key Concerns Identified:

  • Testing infrastructure rivals tool complexity
  • New commands (clean, stat) may not be core functionality
  • High commit churn suggests unclear planning
  • Auto-generated completions/docs add maintenance burden

Recommendations:

  1. Squash to 3-5 logical commits
  2. Split into focused PRs: GPG multi-key fix (hero), basic CLI, optional tooling
  3. Remove/defer: clean/stat commands, complex Makefile features, shell completions
  4. Simplify CI to single lint+test workflow
  5. Consider 2.0 versioning if proceeding with full scope

The GPG multi-key decryption fix is valuable; everything else needs justification against maintenance burden.
