Align CLI output with design guide #5

Description

@Adjanour

Summary

Refactor existing command output so every user-visible message matches docs/cli_design_guide.md for tone, density, and formatting.

Motivation

  • Current outputs still include emojis and verbose text called out as anti-patterns.
  • Consistent formatting reduces user friction and aligns with the documented philosophy.

Scope

  • Update sess start, sess status, sess pause, sess resume, and sess projects to match the prescribed patterns.
  • Ensure timestamps are relative when recent and durations use compact notation.
  • Remove encouragement language and redundant headers.
  • Add regression coverage where practical to guard formatting.

Out of Scope

  • New command implementations (handled in other issues).
  • Internationalization.

Acceptance Criteria

  • Spot checks confirm outputs conform to docs/cli_design_guide.md examples.
  • No emojis, heavy borders, or verbose duration strings remain.
  • Tests or golden snapshots cover at least one command to prevent regressions.
