Research direction

The issue targets the fly m update CLI command; start by locating that command's entry point and its handling of machine JSON and existing flags. Define how $EDITOR editing should fit into the update flow, then verify that custom JSON changes are accepted and applied.

Description

feature

I'd love to have an edit option that allows me to edit the machine JSON in $EDITOR, for doing custom changes that can't be represented by the existing flags
