Research direction
Start by reviewing how the copy, move, and related commands define and share flags, then read the linked forum discussion about decrypting log entries in real time. Define how --cryptdecode remote: should affect those commands and verify the behavior with the example involving remote1-crypt:. Done means encrypted filenames or log entries can be handled as requested without changing normal command behavior.
