Description

I would like howl to optionally set a stop time, and not send a run stop. the stop time field of pl72 can be used for a run with a defined run time.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Locate CLI argument parsing in the codebase and add a new option for stop time; update the run logic to use the stop time if provided.
