 Without `--apply`, the CLI validates the file locally and does not load a token
 or contact Sloth Money. Applying requires a write-enabled token.
 
+Move current assigned money between two categories, or use the reserved
+`to-assign` ID to move money to or from To Assign:
+
+```bash
+sloth-agent budget move \
+  --scope personal \
+  --from-category-id activities \
+  --to-category-id groceries \
+  --amount 52.95

+sloth-agent budget move \
+  --scope personal \
+  --from-category-id activities \
+  --to-category-id groceries \
+  --amount 52.95 \
+  --apply
+```
+
+Copy category IDs from `sloth-agent budget` output. `--amount` is expressed in
+the budget currency and accepts up to two decimal places; the CLI converts the
+decimal digits exactly and sends a positive safe-integer number of pence to the
+API. Without `--apply`, the command validates and prints the exact request
+without loading credentials or contacting Sloth Money.
+
+Applying subtracts and adds the amount atomically, records the movement in the
+budget history, and returns the affected assigned balances. It does not change
+planned line-item amounts or future budget plans. Like the UI, it permits a
+source category or To Assign to become negative; an automated workflow should
+choose donors from its own available-balance policy. Historical periods cannot
+be changed, and applying requires a write-enabled token.

 Create or rename a custom category. Writes are previews until `--apply` is
 present:
