Detailed Description

Command line interface for playing Sudoku directly in the terminal.

The CLI acts as a lightweight text-based frontend around the App controller and translates terminal commands into application actions. It uses argparse with subcommands to provide an interactive shell-like experience for managing gameplay, notes, puzzle generation, and inspection utilities.

The interface supports:

• creating new games with selectable difficulties
• selecting and placing digits
• erasing values
• managing notes manually or automatically
• inspecting field states
• printing the current puzzle state

The CLI intentionally keeps game logic outside of this class and forwards actions to the App controller instead. This keeps the terminal interface focused on input parsing, validation, and user interaction.

The command parser is designed to provide descriptive help messages and graceful error handling for invalid commands and arguments.
