mod.rs

//! The command line: which command to run, with its options.
//!
//! - [`entries`]: commands that read or change entries by id, for agents and scripts.
//! - [`mod@init`]: a project's `.brain/`, and the section telling its agents about it; `deinit` undoes it.
//! - [`claude`]: the Claude Code hooks `init` adds: the context at each session start, and [`hook`]'s checks.
//! - [`hook`]: `kb hook prompt|stop|edit`, which hold an agent to describing an undescribed project first, to
//!   commenting on the tasks it started, and to `kb` for the brain's files.
//! - [`completions`]: `kb completions SHELL`, tab completion, and the ids, projects and tags it offers.
//! - [`update`]: `kb update` and the app's, the latest release over this one, through the installer, once no
//!   agent is working.

  {pad}           about it in CLAUDE.md / AGENTS.md (run again to update them); in a project with

  {pad}           undescribed project first, to commenting on the tasks it started, and to `kb` for
  {pad}           the brain's files (they read the hook's JSON on stdin)

  {pad}           print the current period's tracked time as markdown
  {pad}           (default: {unit}, grouped by {group}); --save also writes it to reports/

  {name} path      print the data directory in use (a project's .brain/ inside it)
  {name} update    install the latest release over this one (and the other app, if it's beside it)
  {name} completions bash|zsh|fish
  {pad}           print a tab completion script for the shell (commands, ids, projects, tags)
  {name} --version print the version

--project NAME, anywhere on the line, runs a command on a registered project's brain (or `central`).
--json prints JSON instead, for list, add, show, search, start|park|done|todo, comment, ask, propose, accept,
reject, describe and link.
-- ends a text's options: every word after it is the text (`{name} comment 3 -- use --json`).
Data lives in the nearest .brain/ folder here or above (see init); else in the central brain:
$KANBRAIN_DIR, else the platform data dir (e.g. ~/.local/share/kanbrain).
The kanban board, `kanbrain` without arguments, shows the same data.
