Description

Problem

Operational commands only emit human-formatted output. That makes automation, scripting, and debugging harder than necessary.

Scope

Add --json output to:

  • nemoclaw list
  • nemoclaw status
  • nemoclaw <name> status
  • nemoclaw <name> policy-list

Acceptance Criteria

  • Each command above accepts --json
  • JSON shape is documented and stable enough for scripting
  • Human-readable output remains the default
  • Tests validate JSON output shape and exit behavior

Context

This came out of a CLI review against https://clig.dev/. Structured output is the clearest machine-friendliness gap in the current CLI.
