TBLite drops the in‑progress transcript when it kills a timing‑out task. The events below were captured turn‑by‑turn by the agent‑loop patch and pieced back together — full content, reasoning, and tool calls are all real; they just came from a different stream than the other tasks.

<think>Let me understand the task:

1. Build a CLI tool named `merkle-cli` (but the file should be `/app/merkle_cli.py` as stated in "Files" section)
2. Three subcommands: `scan`, `proof`, `verify`
3. Use SHA-512 for all hashing (128 hex characters)
4. Store data in `/app/merkle_data.json`
5. Output JSON for proof command
6. Exit codes for verification

Let me start by exploring the environment and then create the tool.

<think>Let me check the test_data directory to understand what files are there for testing.

<think>Good, I can see there's a test_data directory with some files. Let me also check the subdir to understand the nested structure.
