title: Implement Stronger Type Handling for Command Arguments
description: Enhance type conversion and validation for command-line arguments across the application.
current_situation: Command arguments (args : Array(String)) are passed and manipulated as raw strings. Type conversion is minimal or occurs implicitly.
expected_outcome:

All command-line arguments are explicitly converted to their expected Crystal types (e.g., to_i, to_f, specific enums) immediately after parsing.
Validation is performed where necessary (e.g., integer ranges, valid string patterns).
Runtime errors due to incorrect argument types are minimized.
technical_details:
Audit add_options methods in all Cli classes (Build, Scaffold, Plan, Write, Container).
Explicitly convert string arguments from opts.on blocks to their target types when setting Config properties.
Add validation logic (e.g., if value.to_i? before conversion) where user input could lead to type errors.
