+### vg baseline
 
-Initialise Vibgrate in a project.
+Create a drift baseline snapshot for delta comparison.
 
 ```bash
-vg init [path] [--baseline] [--yes]
+vg baseline [path]
 ```
 
-| Flag         | Description                                 |
-| ------------ | ------------------------------------------- |
-| `--baseline` | Create an initial drift baseline after init |

-- `vibgrate.config.ts` with sensible defaults
+Runs a full scan and saves the result to `.vibgrate/baseline.json`. Use this as the starting point for tracking drift over time.

-### vg scan
+### vg bisect
 
-The primary command. Scans your project for upgrade drift.
+Pinpoint the commit where a dependency crossed a version line. Where `vg why` narrates every version change, `vg bisect` answers one targeted question: *when did we cross this line?* — for example, when a vulnerable dependency was finally patched past the fixed version, or when a major was adopted.
 
 ```bash
-vg scan [path] [--vulns] [--full] [--format text|json|sarif|md] [--out <file>] [--fail-on warn|error] [--offline] [--package-manifest <file>] [--no-local-artifacts] [--max-privacy] [--baseline <file>] [--drift-budget <score>] [--drift-worsening <percent>] [--changed-only] [--concurrency <n>]
+vg bisect <package> <constraint>
 ```
 
-| Flag | Default | Description |
-|------|---------|-------------|
-| `--vulns` | — | Also detect known vulnerabilities (OSV online; offline via `--package-manifest` advisories) |
-| `--full` | — | Comprehensive scan: enables `--vulns` and reports banned dependencies when a standards policy exists |
-| `--format` | `text` | Output format: `text`, `json`, `sarif`, or `md` |
-| `--out <file>` | — | Write output to a file |
-| `--fail-on <level>` | — | Exit with code 2 if findings at this level exist |
-| `--baseline <file>` | — | Compare against a previous baseline |
-| `--changed-only` | — | Only scan changed files |
-| `--concurrency <n>` | `8` | Max concurrent npm registry calls |
-| `--drift-budget <score>` | — | Fitness gate: fail if drift score is above this budget |
-| `--drift-worsening <percent>` | — | Fitness gate: fail if drift worsens by more than % vs baseline |
-| `--push` | — | Upload scan artifact to Vibgrate Cloud after a successful scan |
-| `--dsn <dsn>` | `VIBGRATE_DSN` env | DSN used for `--push` authentication |
-| `--region <region>` | — | Override data residency (`us`, `eu`) during push |
-| `--strict` | — | Fail scan command if push fails |
-| `--ui-purpose` | — | Enable optional UI-purpose evidence extraction |
-| `--offline` | — | Disable network calls and disable upload/push behavior |
-| `--package-manifest <file>` | — | JSON or ZIP package-version manifest used for offline/latest lookups (latest bundle: `https://github.com/vibgrate/manifests/latest-packages.zip`) |
-| `--no-local-artifacts` | — | Do not write `.vibgrate/*.json` scan artifacts to disk |
-| `--max-privacy` | — | Hardened privacy mode with minimal scanners and no local artifacts |
-
-By default, the scan writes `.vibgrate/scan_result.json`. Use `--no-local-artifacts` or `--max-privacy` to suppress local JSON artifact files.
+`<constraint>` is a version or a semver range. A bare version means "reached or surpassed" — `vg bisect lodash 4.17.21` is the same as `vg bisect lodash '>=4.17.21'`. It reads the same lockfile history `vg why` uses (npm / pnpm / yarn, pip / poetry, cargo, composer, bundler, go, pub, hex, NuGet, and Maven/Gradle), offline and without checking out any commit.
 
-For offline drift scoring, pass `--package-manifest <file>` with a downloaded manifest bundle such as `https://github.com/vibgrate/manifests/latest-packages.zip`.
+It reports the commit that first reached the constraint — author, date, and the version before and after — or tells you the line was never crossed and shows the latest version in history (so an unadopted fix is obvious). Later flips, such as a downgrade that re-introduced the old version, are listed too.
 
-Examples:
+Add `--assert` to turn it into a CI gate: the command exits non-zero when the current version does not satisfy the constraint, so a pipeline step can block a merge until the fix is adopted.
 
 ```bash
-# Standard text scan
-vg scan
-
-# JSON output for automation
-vg scan --format json --out scan.json
-
-# CI gate with baseline regression protection
-vg scan --baseline .vibgrate/baseline.json --drift-budget 40 --drift-worsening 5 --fail-on error
-
-# Upload result in the same command
-vg scan --push --strict
+vg bisect lodash 4.17.21 --assert    # fails the build until lodash is patched to >= 4.17.21
 ```
 
-Expected results:
-
-- Clear score/risk output in terminal (or JSON/SARIF when selected).
-- Exit code `2` when configured quality gates are exceeded.
-- When `--push` is enabled, artifact upload is attempted after scan completion.
+Exit codes: `0` when the query resolves, `2` when `--assert` finds the constraint unsatisfied, `3` when the package has no version history, `5` for an invalid version or range.
 
 ---
 
-### Vulnerabilities and exposure attribution
-
-`vg scan --vulns` matches your installed dependencies against the public OSV database and records each known vulnerability — advisory id and CVE, severity, CVSS, and the fixing version — in the scan artifact, as findings, and in SARIF. Supply advisories in a `--package-manifest` bundle to run it offline.
-
-In a git repository the scan also attributes each finding: the commit, author, and date that introduced the vulnerable version, and how long you have been exposed. These exposure windows aggregate into remediation metrics framed around the EU Cyber Resilience Act (CRA): open counts by severity, mean and maximum time exposed, and per-severity SLA breaches (defaults: critical 7 days, high 30, moderate 90, low 180). The metrics are descriptive — they show whether remediation keeps pace; they are not a compliance certification.
-
-The scan also reconstructs **closed** exposure windows from history — a vulnerable version that was later bumped out of the affected range or removed from the lockfile entirely — and reports real remediation time (MTTR) from them: measured, not estimated. Offline, a package-version manifest extends this to advisories that are fully fixed today, so a dependency that is clean now but was once vulnerable still counts toward your remediation record.
+### vg drift
 
-Detection and attribution read each project's lockfile, so they cover npm / pnpm / yarn, pip / poetry / pipenv, cargo, composer, bundler, go, pub, hex, NuGet, and Maven/Gradle.
+What is outdated across your dependencies — a fast, offline currency check.
 
 ```bash
-# Online detection against OSV
-vg scan --vulns
-
-# Air-gapped: advisories supplied in the manifest bundle
-vg scan --vulns --offline --package-manifest ./package-versions.zip
-
-# Everything in one run: drift + vulnerabilities + a banned-dependency report
-vg scan --full
+vg drift
 ```
 
----
-
-### vg why
-
-Explain a dependency from git history: who added it, every version since, and any open vulnerabilities it carries.
+Reads each project's lockfile and reports which dependencies have drifted behind their latest known version. Offline by default (uses the last-known catalog); add `--online` to check live registries for current latest versions.
 
-```bash
-vg why <package>
-```
+| Flag | Description |
+|------|-------------|
+| `--online` | Check live registries for the latest versions instead of the offline catalog |
+| `--fail-on <level>` | CI gate: exit non-zero when drift is found at this level (`major`, `minor`, or `standards`) |
 
-`vg why` reads your lockfile's history, so it works across npm / pnpm / yarn, pip / poetry, cargo, composer, bundler, go, pub, hex, NuGet, and Maven/Gradle projects. For Maven/Gradle the history comes from a resolved `gradle.lockfile`, or a `pom.xml`'s pinned direct-dependency versions (versions managed by a BOM/`dependencyManagement` aren't resolved). Open vulnerabilities and their introduction attribution come from your most recent `vg scan --vulns`.
+Add `--json` for machine-readable output.

-## Code Graph Commands
-
-Vibgrate includes a full code graph engine — call trees, impact surfaces, semantic search, and AI Context serving. All graph commands read from (or write to) a local graph artifact at `.vibgrate/graph.json`. Build the map once with `vg build`, then query it offline indefinitely.
+| Command | Description |
+|---------|-------------|
+| `vg sbom export` | Emit CycloneDX or SPDX JSON from a scan artifact |
+| `vg sbom delta` | Compare dependencies between two artifacts (added/removed/changed + drift delta) |
+| `vg sbom vex` | Emit a spec-compliant OpenVEX document (exploitability statements) for attestation |
 
-**Global options available on every graph command:**
+Use this to treat SBOMs as operational intelligence instead of static compliance output.
 
-| Flag | Description |
-|------|-------------|
-| `--cwd <dir>` | Working directory (default: current) |
-| `--graph <file>` | Path to graph file (default: `.vibgrate/graph.json`) |
-| `--json` | Machine-readable JSON output |
-| `--quiet` | Suppress non-error output |
-| `--local` | Offline mode — no network calls or downloads |
-| `--client <name>` | Identify the AI client (e.g. `claude`) so navigation calls are counted in `vg savings` |
-| `--deep` | Enable deep derivation (for `vg facts`, `vg build`) |
-| `--no-cache` | Skip and clear cached data |

+| `--no-local-artifacts` | — | Do not write `.vibgrate/*.json` scan artifacts to disk |
+| `--max-privacy` | — | Hardened privacy mode with minimal scanners and no local artifacts |
+
+By default, the scan writes `.vibgrate/scan_result.json`. Use `--no-local-artifacts` or `--max-privacy` to suppress local JSON artifact files.
+
+For offline drift scoring, pass `--package-manifest <file>` with a downloaded manifest bundle such as `https://github.com/vibgrate/manifests/latest-packages.zip`.

+### Vulnerabilities and exposure attribution
 
-Explain a single node: what it is, what it calls, what calls it.
+`vg scan --vulns` matches your installed dependencies against the public OSV database and records each known vulnerability — advisory id and CVE, severity, CVSS, and the fixing version — in the scan artifact, as findings, and in SARIF. Supply advisories in a `--package-manifest` bundle to run it offline.
+
+In a git repository the scan also attributes each finding: the commit, author, and date that introduced the vulnerable version, and how long you have been exposed. These exposure windows aggregate into remediation metrics framed around the EU Cyber Resilience Act (CRA): open counts by severity, mean and maximum time exposed, and per-severity SLA breaches (defaults: critical 7 days, high 30, moderate 90, low 180). The metrics are descriptive — they show whether remediation keeps pace; they are not a compliance certification.
+
+The scan also reconstructs **closed** exposure windows from history — a vulnerable version that was later bumped out of the affected range or removed from the lockfile entirely — and reports real remediation time (MTTR) from them: measured, not estimated. Offline, a package-version manifest extends this to advisories that are fully fixed today, so a dependency that is clean now but was once vulnerable still counts toward your remediation record.
+
+Detection and attribution read each project's lockfile, so they cover npm / pnpm / yarn, pip / poetry / pipenv, cargo, composer, bundler, go, pub, hex, NuGet, and Maven/Gradle.
 
 ```bash
-vg show <name>
+# Online detection against OSV
+vg scan --vulns
+
+# Air-gapped: advisories supplied in the manifest bundle
+vg scan --vulns --offline --package-manifest ./package-versions.zip
+
+# Everything in one run: drift + vulnerabilities + a banned-dependency report
+vg scan --full
 ```

+### vg update

+Check for and install updates.

+```bash
+vg update [--check] [--pm <manager>]

+
+| Flag      | Description                                            |

+| `--pm`    | Force a package manager (`npm`, `pnpm`, `yarn`, `bun`) |
+
+---
+
+### vg why
+
+Explain a dependency from git history: who added it, every version since, and any open vulnerabilities it carries.
+
+```bash
+vg why <package>
+```
+
+`vg why` reads your lockfile's history, so it works across npm / pnpm / yarn, pip / poetry, cargo, composer, bundler, go, pub, hex, NuGet, and Maven/Gradle projects. For Maven/Gradle the history comes from a resolved `gradle.lockfile`, or a `pom.xml`'s pinned direct-dependency versions (versions managed by a BOM/`dependencyManagement` aren't resolved). Open vulnerabilities and their introduction attribution come from your most recent `vg scan --vulns`.

+## Code Graph Commands
+
+Vibgrate includes a full code graph engine — call trees, impact surfaces, semantic search, and AI Context serving. All graph commands read from (or write to) a local graph artifact at `.vibgrate/graph.json`. Build the map once with `vg build`, then query it offline indefinitely.
+
+**Global options available on every graph command:**
+
 | Flag | Description |
 |------|-------------|
-| `<name>` | Qualified name, short name, `file:line`, glob, or id |
-| `--pick <n>` | Pick the nth candidate when ambiguous |
-
-Outputs the qualified name, kind, file location, signature, importance score, area, extends relationships, callees, and callers.
+| `--cwd <dir>` | Working directory (default: current) |
+| `--graph <file>` | Path to graph file (default: `.vibgrate/graph.json`) |
+| `--json` | Machine-readable JSON output |
+| `--quiet` | Suppress non-error output |
+| `--local` | Offline mode — no network calls or downloads |
+| `--client <name>` | Identify the AI client (e.g. `claude`) so navigation calls are counted in `vg savings` |
+| `--deep` | Enable deep derivation (for `vg facts`, `vg build`) |
+| `--no-cache` | Skip and clear cached data |
