+// TestCLI_CommentsAddShortID tests that 'comments add' accepts short IDs (issue #1070)
+// Most bd commands accept short IDs (e.g., "5wbm") but comments add previously required
+// full IDs (e.g., "mike.vibe-coding-5wbm"). This test ensures short IDs work.
+//
+// Note: This test runs with --no-daemon (direct mode) where short IDs already work
+// because the code calls utils.ResolvePartialID(). The actual bug (GitHub #1070) is
+// in daemon mode where the ID isn't resolved before being sent to the RPC server.
+// The fix should add daemonClient.ResolveID() before daemonClient.AddComment(),
+// following the pattern in update.go and label.go.
