@@ -16,6 +16,30 @@ The CLI has three entry points:
 
 Registration and listing are two independent resources on two independent files. `register` must happen first — `listing` pushes against the app that `register` created and will fail with a clear error if it hasn't run yet.
 
+### Help and version
+
+Every command documents its flags:
+
+```bash
+npx @jtl-software/create-cloud-app --help           # overview + scaffold flags
+npx @jtl-software/create-cloud-app help register    # same as `register --help`
+npx @jtl-software/create-cloud-app listing --help
+npx @jtl-software/create-cloud-app --version
+```
+
+### Running without a terminal (AI agents, scripts)
+
+Every prompt has a matching flag. When stdin is not a terminal, the CLI never prompts. Instead it exits with code 1 and names the flags to pass. Pass `--yes` to get the same behavior in a terminal.
+
+```bash
+npx @jtl-software/create-cloud-app --name my-app --frontend react --backend node --yes
+cd my-app && npm install
+npm run register -- --yes --tenant my-tenant --new --on-collision overwrite
+npm run listing -- --yes --tenant my-tenant --distribution-type PRIVATE
+```
+
+`register` and `listing` still need a browser sign-in the first time. After that the cached token is reused and refreshed.

 Like `register`, it's interactive by default: OAuth login, then a tenant prompt. It also asks two questions about the listing itself — distribution type (`PUBLIC`/`PRIVATE`) and default locale — pre-filled from whatever's already in `listing.json` and written back there once answered, so re-running `listing` later remembers your choice. Unlike `register`, there's no create-vs-update choice or local credential file to write — a listing is always pushed against the app `register` already created, keyed by `technicalName`. If no registered app matches, the command fails with a message telling you to run `register` first.
 
-Flags: `--api-host`, `--auth-host`, `--hub-host`, `--client-id`, `--scope`, `--reauth`, `--yes`/`-y`, `--tenant` — same meaning as the equivalent `register` flags above. There's no `--existing-app-id`, `--new`, or `--on-collision` since listing has nothing to disambiguate or overwrite locally.
