+Fix CLI --force flag for parse-prd command
+
+Previously, the --force flag was not respected when running `parse-prd`, causing the command to prompt for confirmation or fail even when --force was provided. This patch ensures that the flag is correctly passed and handled, allowing users to overwrite existing tasks.json files as intended.

+- Fixes #477

+
+Fix duplicate output on CLI help screen
+
+- Prevent the Task Master CLI from printing the help screen more than once when using `-h` or `--help`.
+- Removed redundant manual event handlers and guards for help output; now only the Commander `.helpInformation` override is used for custom help.
+- Simplified logic so that help is only shown once for both "no arguments" and help flag flows.
+- Ensures a clean, branded help experience with no repeated content.
+- Fixes #339
