🛡️ Sentinel: [ENHANCEMENT] Fix gosec G204 false positive

[euxaristia]

🚨 Severity: ENHANCEMENT
💡 Vulnerability: Gosec flagged a G204 (Subprocess launched with a variable) on shell command executions in internal/config/command.go. However, this was a false positive as these commands originate from a trusted local configuration where shell execution is explicitly intended.
🎯 Impact: Left unaddressed, it creates noise in security scans, potentially masking real vulnerabilities.
🔧 Fix: Add /* #nosec G204 -- ... */ comments to safely suppress the warning without removing critical functionality (shell pipes/environment variables).
✅ Verification: Ran make test and make lint to confirm functionality remains unaffected.

Documented in .jules/sentinel.md.
