CLAN Manual Audit

Status: Current This appendix tracks how the CLAN manual covers the commands currently implemented in clan-core.

The purpose of this audit is to keep the book honest about command intent:

  • when the manual has a command section, that section is the starting point for legacy semantics
  • when the manual is silent or incomplete, the command chapter should say so explicitly
  • GUI-oriented legacy material should move to the TalkBank VS Code extension docs, not this CLI book

Status legend

StatusMeaning
SectionThe legacy manual has a recognizable standalone command section.
IndirectThe command is mentioned or implied, but not documented as a standalone section.
MissingNo clear standalone coverage was found in the legacy manual.

Priorities

The next documentation passes should focus on:

  1. commands with strong manual semantics that should constrain implementation behavior, especially CHAINS, KEYMAP, and RELY
  2. commands whose current docs over-generalize legacy intent, especially COMBTIER
  3. commands with no standalone CLAN.html section, where the book needs to say what evidence is being used instead of pretending the manual is explicit
