First, <c-u> doesn't actually clear the entire cmdline, only the part before the cursor. There is a note in :help c_CTRL-U about this. I'll assume from the question you want to clear the entire cmdline.
On the cmdline, another way to clear the entry is <c-c>. Unlike <c-u> this adds the current text to the history. I suggest the following ...

Somewhat workaround if you have recent vim with <cmd> support:
cnoremap <C-u> <cmd>let g:CCtrlU = strpart(getcmdline(),0,getcmdpos()-1)<CR><C-u>

" Redirect the output of a ...

The format for :m[ove] is
:[range]m[ove] {address}
Where the range is the line or lines you want to move and the address is the target. Note that the moved line(s) will actually be placed on the line below the address.
So you're looking for a range of "mark a" and an address of "the current line". You can find all the special names for ...

Thanks to the commenters there are two decent options here.
Regarding the path I started on, as @D. Ben Knoble intimated, the escaping was important but I used singles around the doubles instead.
I also used 'execute' so I could wrap the whole thing as a string. Not sure if that was needed or not?
So
:cfdo execute 'norm 5GO"status": "not ...
