Title: hermes kanban --board flag must precede subcommand; docs/help should make this explicit

Observed behavior:

  • Fails: hermes kanban list --board incoming-knowledge
  • Works: hermes kanban --board incoming-knowledge list

Impact:

  • Easy operator mistake; appears as "unrecognized arguments" and looks like broken kanban command.

Repro:

  1. hermes kanban list --board incoming-knowledge
  2. Observe: error: unrecognized arguments: --board incoming-knowledge
  3. hermes kanban --board incoming-knowledge list
  4. Observe successful board listing

Suggestion:

  • Improve error hint when --board appears after subcommand.
  • Add examples in help output using both styles and emphasize global-option placement.
