Description
Great work, love this.
I run eslint and testing and npm audit and other quality tasks, and the stdout is overwhelming for one to absorb and understand the status. Could you allow tailing each command for few lines?
When I do it myself using bash - "command | tail -n 5" - then the exit code is always 0 (which is the wrong behaviour of course).

Research direction
Start by tracing how concurrently captures command stdout and propagates exit codes; the issue does not name a file or test. Define how a tailing option should limit displayed output while preserving the underlying command status, then add coverage for both output truncation and nonzero exits.
