## 📈 **Priority Implementation Plan**

### **Phase 1: Critical Blockchain Commands (Week 1)**
**Commands**: `blockchain blocks`, `blockchain block`, `blockchain transaction`

**Implementation Pattern**:
```python
@blockchain.command()
@click.option("--limit", type=int, default=10, help="Number of blocks to show")
@click.option("--from-height", type=int, help="Start from this block height")
@click.option('--chain-id', help='Specific chain ID to query (default: ait-devnet)')
@click.option('--all-chains', is_flag=True, help='Query blocks across all available chains')
@click.pass_context
def blocks(ctx, limit: int, from_height: Optional[int], chain_id: str, all_chains: bool):
```

### **Phase 2: Important Commands (Week 2)**
**Commands**: `blockchain status`, `blockchain sync_status`, `blockchain info`, `client blocks`

**Focus**: Maintain backward compatibility while adding multi-chain support

### **Phase 3: Utility Commands (Week 3)**
**Commands**: `blockchain peers`, `blockchain supply`, `blockchain validators`

**Focus**: Complete multi-chain coverage across all blockchain operations

## 🧪 **Testing Strategy**

### **Standard Multi-Chain Test Suite**
Each enhanced command requires:
1. **Help Options Test** - Verify new options are documented
2. **Single Chain Test** - Test specific chain selection
3. **All Chains Test** - Test comprehensive multi-chain query
4. **Default Chain Test** - Test default behavior (ait-devnet)
5. **Error Handling Test** - Test network errors and missing chains
