+.SH WATCH MODE
+.TP
+.B \-\-watch
+Keep running and repeat the search whenever a watched file changes. Requires
+file or directory arguments (standard input cannot be watched); cannot be

+separator; with
+.B \-\-json
+each rerun emits an NDJSON
+.I {"event":"run","changed":...,"matches":n}
+record followed by the match records.
+.PP
+Every rerun repeats the full directory walk, so new files are discovered (and
+deleted ones dropped) under the same
+.BR \-\-include / \-\-ignore / \-\-ext
+rules as a fresh invocation; change bursts are debounced. Watching uses the
+operating system's native file events (no polling), which may be unreliable
+on network or virtual filesystems.
+.SH REWRITING
+Five repeatable, freely combinable operations edit the matched elements
+instead of reporting them:
+.TP
+.BI \-\-add\-class " c"
+Add a class to each matched element (deduplicated; attribute created if
+missing).
+.TP
+.BI \-\-remove\-class " c"
+Remove a class; the attribute is dropped when emptied.
+.TP
+.BI \-\-set\-attr " k=v"
+Set attribute
+.I k
+to
+.IR v ,
+adding it if missing. The value is escaped.
+.TP
+.BI \-\-remove\-attr " k"
+Remove attribute
+.I k
+(all source occurrences).
+.TP
+.BI \-\-rename\-tag " t"
+Rename the element \(em its closing tag too, when one explicitly exists
+(voids like
+.IR <img> ,
+self-closing and implied closes are left without one).
+.TP
+.B \-\-diff
+Emit a unified diff instead of the rewritten document. Required for multiple
+files; apply with
+.BR git-apply (1)
+or
+.BR patch (1).
+.PP
+Only the matched tags' bytes change: matching runs once against the original
+document and edits are byte-splices, so quoting, entities and formatting
+everywhere else pass through untouched. Operations compose in a fixed order
+\(em rename \(-> remove-attr \(-> set-attr \(-> remove-class \(-> add-class
