**click-option-group** is a Click-extension package that adds option groups
missing in [Click](https://github.com/pallets/click/).

## AI interpretation — verify before relying

Adds option groups to Click CLI applications, enabling logical grouping of command-line options and enforcing relationships like mutual exclusivity between grouped options.

Aging maintenance (308 days) is a minor concern but not a blocker given the repository's continued activity and the package's focused, stable scope.
