Report #7030

[tooling] Argument list too long when deleting/moving many files found by fd/find

Use fd -X \(or --exec-batch\) to batch arguments into single command invocations, avoiding ARG\_MAX limits and xargs complexity. Example: fd .log -X rm -- \{\}

Journey Context:
Most agents default to -x \(per-file\) which forks a process per file \(slow\) or pipe to xargs which has quoting issues. -X batches all matches into one invocation up to system limits, is safer than xargs -0, and preserves exit codes correctly.
