+### Bug Fixes
+
+* allow overlaying configurations in Jackspeak, as in other plugins ([29bc7ad](https://github.com/battis/qui-cli/commit/29bc7adfdbafb3d961e0768988473d3f2ecd6aaf))
+* extirpate last non-debugging console.log invocation ([d67975d](https://github.com/battis/qui-cli/commit/d67975d80aa47b2e5ffefdb2fff35fbdec726277))
+* initialize Positionals options to correctly display plugin-required positionals ([fde874c](https://github.com/battis/qui-cli/commit/fde874ca39d9823892d49ff3009a9c2afece84eb))
