Success resolves silently; false rejects with a `silent` error so `&&`/`||` skip it — POSIX prints nothing on exit 1. * `[` requires the closing bracket (`[ : missing ']'`), and that message is NOT silent. * `test` already names the on-demand regression-suite runner ("test auto" / "test list" in help.html). A argv that does not look like a test expression (`-f`/`-d`/`-e`/`-z`/`-n`/`!`, or `a = b` / `a != b`) is delegated to the handler registered before us, so `test auto` still runs the suite and the two meanings cannot collide. * terminal.dispatchCommand() now honours `err.silent` — without it a top-level `test -f /nope` printed `Error in ShellModule.test:` (measured on v4.6.134, fixed in v4.6.135). * help.html documents the bracket form next to the existing `test` row. Three tags were minted minutes apart — v4.6.133 (commands), v4.6.134 (suite delegation), v4.6.135 (silent top-level) — each a real cache-bust for a fix that superseded the previous build; the net change is this commit.
