 Once it's a project dependency (`npm install -D @astryxdesign/cli`), drop the scope and use the shorter `astryx` — e.g. `npx astryx component Button` or `pnpm exec astryx component Button`. Bare `astryx` resolves to an unrelated npm package until the CLI is installed, so prefer the scoped form above for first-run/one-off use.
 
+## Reading the CLI's own docs
+
+The CLI documents itself, so these commands print what the installed version does:
+
+- `astryx <command> --help`: one command's arguments and options.
+- `astryx manifest --json`: every command, option, and response type, as JSON.
+- `astryx docs cli`: the CLI's docs tree, one level at a time.
+  `astryx docs cli/commands` lists every command, `astryx docs cli/api` lists
+  the API's functions, schemas, and enums, and a route such as
+  `astryx docs cli/api/functions/search` prints one.
+- `astryx docs authoring --index`: the authoring reference, with one section for
+  each file an author writes: the `astryx.config.*` file, the
+  `astryx.integration.*` manifest, codemods, and every doc type (`ComponentDoc`,
+  `TemplateDoc`, `ThemeDoc`, and the rest). Read one section with
+  `astryx docs authoring <section>`, for example `astryx docs authoring config`.
+- `astryx docs cli/integrations`: the guide to building an integration package.
+- `astryx docs`: every docs topic, including the design-system guides (for
+  example `tokens`, `theme`, and `layout`).
