Missing information

Description

Provide more detail about how I add global options that apply to all commands/subcommands like verbosity.

Would be nice to have the complete verbosity option with how to specify the acceptance of letters and names, etc... also how best to access the value within context of writing output

In the design guidance they talk about verbosity and if you specify "-v" it should be diagnostic. But then how do you parse and understand if "-v" was specified on its own vs. "--verbosity quiet" and distinguish that from if no value was provided? Need more examples of common patterns/usage for these scenarios.
