## Summary
Describe the problem and fix in 2–5 bullets:
- Problem: fly.io install guide missing --app flag https://fly.io/docs/flyctl/volumes-create/
- Why it matters: when you try and install you can't create a volume without the app flag
- What changed: added app flag to correct this
- What did NOT change (scope boundary): anything other than one command flag in the docs
