          "Judgement call. Tagged not-for-agents because the README and the command's help say to run it in its own terminal. `--json` is documented for scripts and other tools, so an orchestrating agent could call it; whether that lifts the tag is for the founder",

WebFetch refused herdr.dev, so it wasn't read another way, and whether `herdr plugin install blavka/agents-tree` takes main or a tag is unknown. main has two unreleased changes since 1.2.0 (agent names, a fold toggle) that the README already documents",
