Reliability options:

• --max-retries N (default 3; 0 disables) — per-file retries on network errors / 429 / 5xx
• --upload-timeout SEC (default 600) — per-file timeout
• --quiet — suppress stderr progress output
• --strict (run only) — abort if any source file fails upload (default: proceed with successful ones)
