  - name: Ad-hoc scrape
    description: One target/resource per invocation; JSON to stdout.
  - name: Bulk NDJSON pipeline
    description: Pipe a list of IDs via stdin — cat asins.txt | chocodata amazon product --stdin-param query --ndjson > out.ndjson. Successes go to stdout, errors to stderr, so a partial failure still leaves a clean NDJSON stream.
behaviour: Applies the same retry/backoff policy as the SDKs (respects Retry-After; never retries permanent errors).
