 - `exec_all` command: runs a shell command inside each cloned castle root directory in sorted order.
 - `pull --all` support: pulls updates for every cloned castle in sorted order.
 - `rc --force` support: legacy `.homesickrc` compatibility hooks now require explicit force mode before execution.
+- Global command flags restored: `--pretend` (with `--dry-run` alias) and `--quiet`.
 - Native Go implementations for `clone`, `link`, `unlink`, `track`, `pull`, `push`, `commit`, `destroy`, `cd`, `open`, and `generate`.
 - Containerized behavior test suite for command parity validation.
 - Dedicated test suites for `list`, `show_path`, `status`, `diff`, and `version`.
