# T-652: TermLink dispatch task enforcement — make --task mandatory in fw termlink dispatch

## Context

T-630 GO build task 3. TermLink workers are full Claude Code sessions with zero inherited governance. Make `--task` mandatory.

## Acceptance Criteria

### Agent
- [x] `cmd_dispatch()` in `agents/termlink/termlink.sh` validates `--task` is provided
- [x] Missing `--task` produces clear error message
- [x] Vendored copy synced to `.agentic-framework/agents/termlink/`
- [x] `bash -n` passes on modified script

## Verification

bash -n agents/termlink/termlink.sh
grep -q 'Missing --task' agents/termlink/termlink.sh
