**Recommended invocation** — captures the final response to a file and runs in the right directory:

```bash
altimate-code run "<task description>" \
--yolo \
--output /tmp/altimate-result.md \
--dir "$(pwd)"
--dir "$(pwd)" \
< /dev/null
```

Then read `/tmp/altimate-result.md` and pass it straight back to the user.
