No guide block names this command. The guide is the workflow prose the CLI ships beside the command table: which command to reach for, and in what order.
6. Provenance
A loader generates this page from apps/cli/src/commands.ts while the site builds, so no file in the repository holds it: the COMMANDS array there is the one source of argument parsing, of memhtml manifest, and of AGENTS.md. Change the registry and this page changes with it.
