+### Streaming output
+
+Pass `--stream`, `--stream=true`, or `--stream=false`, or set
+`"stream": true` in `fast-build.config.json`, to control stdout streaming. When
+streaming is enabled, the CLI writes raw rendered HTML chunks to stdout, does
+not write the `--output` file, and does not print the normal `Built: ...`
+message.
+
+```shell
+fast build --entry=index.html --state=state.json --stream
+```
+
+Streaming is simulated by the WebAssembly renderer: chunks are prepared in
+memory, returned to JavaScript as a JSON array, parsed by the CLI, and then
+written to stdout. `--stream` uses the same entry renderer with its stream flag
+enabled and passes an empty templates map when no `--templates` glob is
+provided. Chunk boundaries are safe for HTML parsing:
+
+- Attribute bindings stay within complete opening tag chunks.
+- Custom element opening chunks include the complete Declarative Shadow DOM
+  template.
+- Streamed output uses the same renderer preprocessing and custom-element host
+  attribute propagation as normal output.
+- Empty chunks are omitted.
+- Concatenating all chunks matches the normal non-streamed render.
+
 ### Missing or omitted state
 
 State is optional. When `--state` is omitted and no `state` path is provided by config, `fast build` does not look for `state.json`; rendering uses an empty object (`{}`). An explicit `--state` path, or a `state` path from config, must exist or the command exits with an error.

+If an `<f-template>` element has no `name` attribute, a warning is printed and it is ignored. Exact file paths (no wildcards) are also accepted as patterns, making it possible to register a single template file. The parser follows browser tag boundaries for the `<f-template>` and inner `<template>` wrappers, including ASCII whitespace before `>` in opening and closing tags.
 
 Any `shadowroot*` attributes on `<f-template>` are forwarded to the rendered Declarative Shadow DOM `<template>`. The CLI normalizes `shadowrootmode` and legacy `shadowroot` for compatibility: when neither has a non-empty value, it emits `shadowrootmode="open" shadowroot="open"`; when exactly one has a non-empty value, that value is mirrored to the other; when both have explicit non-empty values, both are preserved as authored, even if they conflict.

 **Path resolution:** File paths in the config file (`entry`, `state`, `output`, `templates`) are resolved relative to the config file's directory, not the current working directory. This ensures the config works correctly regardless of where the CLI is invoked.
 
-All keys are optional. Only the following keys are allowed: `entry`, `state`, `output`, `templates`, `attribute-name-strategy`. Unknown keys or non-string values produce an error. If `state` is omitted, rendering uses `{}`; if `state` is present, the referenced file must exist.
+All keys are optional. Only the following keys are allowed: `entry`, `state`, `output`, `templates`, `attribute-name-strategy`, and `stream`. Unknown keys produce an error.
