How do I enable the --turbo flag to speed up mytool? Check docs/cli.md.
model
There's no `--turbo` flag documented in `docs/cli.md`. The only flags mytool supports are:

- `--verbose` — extra logging
- `--output PATH` — where to write results
- `--dry-run` — show actions without doing them
- `--retries N` — retry count (default 3)

So there doesn't appear to be a built-in way to "enable turbo mode." A few possibilities:

- The flag may not exist (the premise might be mistaken). If you saw `--turbo` mentioned somewhere, let me know where and I can check.
- There may be newer/undocumented functionality — check `mytool --help` or the changelog/source to confirm.
- If you're looking to speed things up, the docs don't list a performance option; `--retries` is the only tuning knob shown.
