Research direction

Start by locating the Go entry point and argument parsing for the "scale" command, then trace how it currently resolves a group name. The issue provides no file or test references, so first confirm the expected group file format and existing command behavior. Done means the command accepts a group file path instead of only a group name, with tests covering the new input.
