+"""#1113 — a deliberate `typer.Exit` was being re-printed as "Error: 1".
+
+`typer.Exit` subclasses `RuntimeError`, so a command's own catch-all caught its
+own intentional exit and stringified the exit *code* as a message:
+
+    Error: No PRD found.
+    Add one first: codeframe prd add <file.md>
+    Error: 1
+
+To a new user that reads as a second, unexplained failure right after a message
+that was otherwise clear.
+
+The per-command fix is one `except typer.Exit: raise`. The scanner below is the
+part that matters long-term: it fails for any *new* command that reintroduces
+the pattern, which is what the issue asked for in preference to spot fixes.
