mtm-ddwipe project conventions

Project conventions

• Use English throughout the project.
• Keep shell scripts Bash-based when Bash is already used by the project.
• Preserve the current behavior of the main script:
  • mtm-ddwipe: wipe devices.
• Strengthen destructive-action safety checks in mtm-ddwipe when making changes.
• Keep mtm-ddwipe interactive by default unless a change explicitly adds a safe opt-in flag.
• Keep user-facing messages short, clear, and in English.
• Prefer minimal, focused changes that do not alter the intent of the existing scripts, unless the script behavior is intentionally updated.
• Maintain .continue/rules/project.md whenever project conventions or script behavior change.
• mtm-ddwipe is a small Bash script with helper functions.
• Keep the host and line-number removal behavior intact.
• mtm-ddwipe must print a usage line and support -h/--help.
• Validate that wipe targets are real block devices before operating on them.
• Keep short, explicit confirmation prompts before destructive operations.
• Keep error and help messages short, clear, and in English.
• Keep help text concise and usage-first.
• When changing mtm-ddwipe, keep destructive safeguards strict and explicit.
• If adding non-interactive support, make it an opt-in safety flag.
• Keep device identification prompts clear and specific.
• Preserve the fallback wipe flow unless the change is intentionally about wiping behavior.
