#### Implementation Summary

The bootstrap script verification phase confirmed that both Unix and Windows bootstrap scripts already correctly pass all command-line arguments to the Node.js implementation. No code changes were required.

#### Technical Verification

**Bash Bootstrap (`lib/ccs`)**:
- Line 32: `exec npx "$PACKAGE" "$@"`
- `"$@"` correctly expands to all positional parameters, preserving quotes
- Successfully passes `--force`, `--beta`, and combined flags

**PowerShell Bootstrap (`lib/ccs.ps1`)**:
- Lines 5-8: Parameter capture with `ValueFromRemainingArguments=$true`
- Line 38: `& npx $PACKAGE @RemainingArgs`
- `@RemainingArgs` uses splatting to pass all captured arguments
- Successfully passes `--force`, `--beta`, and combined flags

#### Key Achievements

1. **Zero Code Changes**: Existing implementation already supports new flags
2. **Cross-Platform Consistency**: Both Unix and Windows handle arguments identically
3. **No Breaking Changes**: Existing functionality remains unaffected
