Useful for scripting and for AI agents that need to check instance state:

# Check if an instance is running
cassian status --json | python3 -c "
import json, sys
data = json.load(sys.stdin)
running = [i for i in data['instances'] if i['status'] == 'running']
print('running:', [i['name'] for i in running])
