 | verb | flags | what it does |
 |---|---|---|
-| `spawn-task` | `--repo PATH --prompt TEXT [--title T] [--base-branch B]` | Create a new task + worktree + chat session. |
-| `create-tab` | `--task-id ID [--title T]` | Open an extra chat tab on an existing task. |
-| `send`       | `--task-id ID --prompt TEXT [--tab-id TID]` | Resume the task's session with a new prompt. |
-| `get-task`   | `--task-id ID` | Read task metadata (status, branch, worktree, tabs). |
-| `get-tab`    | `--task-id ID --tab-id TID` | Read a single tab off the task. |
+| `spawn-task` | `--repo PATH [--prompt TEXT] [--title T] [--base-branch B] [--vendor V]` | Create one task + worktree. With `--prompt`, also start the engine in tmux and deliver the prompt. |
+| `fan-out`    | `--repo PATH --prompt TEXT [--count N \| --agents claude:2,codex:1] [--base-branch B]` | Spawn N tasks of the same prompt in one call (per-engine counts optional). Returns `{count, tasks[]}`. Capped at 10. |
+| `send`       | `[--task-id ID] --prompt TEXT` | Paste a prompt into a task's engine pane (bracketed paste, then Enter — multi-line stays one turn). Defaults to the active task; prefer `--task-id` for unattended fan-out. |
+| `get-task`   | `--task-id ID` | Read task metadata; `.running` is true when the tmux session is live. |
+| `collect`    | `--task-ids a,b,c \| --repo PATH` | Read-only aggregation snapshot: per task, branch + `.running` + uncommitted `.changes` ({added, deleted}) for comparing attempts. |
+| `list`       | — | List all tasks. |
+
+`spawn-task --prompt` and `send` also return `.engineReady` — `false` means a freshly-started engine didn't confirm it was ready before the prompt was pasted (delivered best-effort).
 
 Output is one JSON object on stdout, `\n` terminated, exit 0. Errors land on
 stderr as `{"error":{"message":"...","code":"..."}}` with a non-zero exit.
 Add `--pretty` for human inspection.
 
+v0.6 is tmux-native — a task's chat history lives in its tmux session, not in
+the daemon — so `send` types the prompt into the engine pane and there is no
+verb that reads the reply back. Results are reviewed in the TUI. (The v0.5
+`create-tab` / `get-tab` verbs are gone; extra chat tabs are tmux windows
+opened from inside the TUI.)
