-/// Test that `init --force` also overwrites an existing agent file
+/// Test that `--force` is advertised in `init --help` and describes its
+/// actual purpose: bypassing the GitHub-remote guard so maintainers can run
+/// `ado-aw init` inside a GitHub-hosted fork of `ado-aw` itself.
+///
+/// NOTE: `--force` has nothing to do with overwriting (init always overwrites).
+/// It skips `ensure_non_github_remote_for_ado_aw`. We cannot trigger that
+/// guard from within a `cargo test` run because `CARGO_BIN_EXE_ado-aw` being
+/// set already bypasses it, so the meaningful check is the CLI surface test.
