+]'
+```
+

+or none does. The live artifact reflects it immediately.

+upload, performs it, and — when `--path` says where the file belongs — commits
+it in the same run. Files over 10 MB go through Git LFS automatically. Smaller
+files need none of this: send them to `edit` directly.
+
+### `review` — the comments humans addressed to you

+```bash

+npx @animaapp/cli@latest review list <artifact>            # just this artifact
+npx @animaapp/cli@latest review reply <commentId> -m "Which pill did you mean?"
+npx @animaapp/cli@latest review resolve <commentId> --note "Left as-is: it matches the spec"
+```
+
+A review is a batch of comments a human pinned to places in an artifact and
+sent as one. Nothing pushes them to you, so `review list` is how the work
+arrives — run it when a human says they left comments, and when starting work
+on an artifact you have been reviewed on before.
+
+Read the replies before acting: a reviewer can keep talking after sending, so
+the comment body is where the request starts, not necessarily where it ends. A
+comment marked `unassigned` was addressed to nobody in particular and is
+anyone's to take.
+
+To close comments, put the review's `resolveTrailer` lines in your commit
+message — that records which commit resolved them. `review resolve` is for what
+a commit cannot carry (a question answered, a change you decided against), and
+`review reply` says something while leaving the comment **open**.

-Available on the network commands (`login`, `create`, `duplicate`, `codegen`,
-`publish`, `get-git-token`):
+| Flag | Description | Available on |
+|------|-------------|--------------|
+| `--json` | Emit a single JSON object to stdout (for agents) | every command |
+| `--api-url <url>` | API base URL — point at local or staging³ | every command except `config` |
+| `--log-file <path>` | Append a JSON debug log of each step to a file | every command that reaches the network |
+| `--verbose` | Stream progress to stderr in JSON mode¹ | `create`, `create-knowledge`, `status`, `duplicate`, `upload-asset`, `publish`, `unpublish`, `update`, `delete`, `codegen`, `get-git-token` |
+| `--timeout <ms>` | How long to wait² | `create`, `status`, `codegen` |
+
+¹ Only the commands that do slow work carry a spinner, so `--verbose` is on
+those. `explore`, `edit`, `list` and `review` are a single round trip and
+report nothing in between.
+
+² Defaults to `600000` (10 min). On `create` and `status --wait` it is the
+budget for the whole generation wait, not one request — don't lower it, since
+generation takes minutes. Running out is a `TIMEOUT` exit that tells you the
+job is still running and how to resume the wait.
