Research direction

Start by locating the command-line option handling and the existing RNG seed parsing, then inspect how auto-generated seeds are represented as strings beginning with SMGen. Done means the command accepts arbitrary seed strings while still interpreting SMGen-prefixed values correctly; add or update focused tests if the existing seed parser has coverage.
