The CLI exit code is 1 when any op finishes non-SUCCESS, or the actual `exit_code` when a SUCCESS op had a non-zero sandbox exit (so `op wait && next-step` still composes naturally with `run -- false`). --timeout (default 60s) caps the wait. Use --all to wait for every currently active op in the project.
 
   Rule of thumb -- use `op wait` ONLY outside session context: `op wait` is the right tool when the UUIDs came from somewhere else (different session, different agent, `images import`, raw API call) and you only need "is it done yet?". For ops you spawned in *this* session, use `session wait` (no-arg form) instead -- it polls AND advances the active branch to each result image, which `op wait` will not do.
 
   Caveat 1 -- `op wait` does NOT advance session state: each `run -d` (non-disposable) creates a `detached-<op-uuid>` branch pointing at the START image. `op wait` does not move those branches to the result image; the result lives only on the server. After fan-out + wait the session looks the same as before the wait, just with `detached-*` branches accumulated.
 
   PREFERRED fan-out (--disposable, no image-tracking concerns):
-    A=$(contree -S <key> -f json run -d --disposable -- pytest tests/a | jq -r .uuid)
-    B=$(contree -S <key> -f json run -d --disposable -- pytest tests/b | jq -r .uuid)
-    C=$(contree -S <key> -f json run -d --disposable -- pytest tests/c | jq -r .uuid)
+    A=$(contree -S <key> -o json run -d --disposable -- pytest tests/a | jq -r .uuid)
+    B=$(contree -S <key> -o json run -d --disposable -- pytest tests/b | jq -r .uuid)
+    C=$(contree -S <key> -o json run -d --disposable -- pytest tests/c | jq -r .uuid)
     contree -S <key> op wait "$A" "$B" "$C"     block until all complete
     contree -S <key> op show "$A" "$B" "$C"     stdout/stderr per op
 
   Non-disposable fan-out (must recover images manually):
-    A=$(contree -S <key> -f json run -d -- apt-get install -y curl | jq -r .uuid)
-    B=$(contree -S <key> -f json run -d -- apt-get install -y wget | jq -r .uuid)
+    A=$(contree -S <key> -o json run -d -- apt-get install -y curl | jq -r .uuid)
+    B=$(contree -S <key> -o json run -d -- apt-get install -y wget | jq -r .uuid)
     contree -S <key> op wait "$A" "$B"
-    IMG_A=$(contree -f json op show "$A" | jq -r .image)
+    IMG_A=$(contree -o json op show "$A" | jq -r .image)
     contree use "$IMG_A"                    bind chosen result back
 
   Caveat 2 -- `op wait --all` is project-wide: if another agent (or another shell of yours) is running concurrently in the same project, your --all will block on its ops too. The result is still a valid wait, just possibly not over the set you expected. For session-spawned fan-out the correct alternative is `contree -S <key> session wait` (no args): it drains only this session's pending detached ops and advances the active branch with each result image. Reach for `op wait --all` only when you really want a project-wide observer (admin/cleanup tooling).
