missing query path

Error message

missing query path

What it means

The git_log_context CLI was invoked with a worktree path but no second positional argument, the query path. run() requires exactly two positional args; this sentinel error is returned after printing usage and the process exits with FAILURE before any repository access.

Solutions

1. Pass the query path as the second positional argument after the worktree path
2. Verify argument ordering — usage is printed on stderr when this fails
