## Description

<!-- SECTION:DESCRIPTION:BEGIN -->
Update documentation and tests as needed to cover the new spinner UI behavior and ensure it does not regress verbosity modes.
<!-- SECTION:DESCRIPTION:END -->

## Acceptance Criteria
<!-- AC:BEGIN -->
- [x] #1 Docs note spinner behavior and its interaction with verbosity levels.
- [x] #2 Tests updated or added to confirm spinner suppression in quiet/verbose modes (or equivalent non-TTY assertions).
<!-- AC:END -->

## Final Summary

<!-- SECTION:FINAL_SUMMARY:BEGIN -->
Documented spinner behavior in README/spec and added a test assertion that verbose mode output does not include the SimpleDots frame sequence. Ran `cargo test -p nishikaze --test integration_tests kaze_verbose_always_shows_command_output`.
