-Pick one deliberately: `pull` throws away what is in this folder, `--force`
-throws away what the other machine put on staging. **Ask the user which**, and
-say plainly which side is about to be lost — don't guess for them.
+**Prefer taking their work and redoing yours on top.** You know what you just
+changed, so you can re-apply it — which no merge tool could do for you, and which

+npx genex pull --force   # takes their version; keeps what was here under .genex/replaced-*
+# redo your change on the new base, then:
+npx genex preview

+
+`pull --force` never deletes: what was in the folder is copied to
+`.genex/replaced-<timestamp>/` first, so you can diff against it while re-applying.
+
+Use `preview --force` instead only when the user says their side should win.
+Either way **say which version you are keeping before you run it** — both commands
+are irreversible for one side, and the user may know something you don't about what

 `link` never creates a project: it signs in if needed (the browser opens once)
