help — Show the command index or the page for one command

Show the command index or the page for one command.

help shows the command index when no name is supplied. help COMMAND and COMMAND --help open the same command-specific page, including command aliases. These pages are bundled with the executable and work offline.

Use --version (also -v/-V) to identify the build in a bug report. --no-color turns off terminal colors and is useful when copying output. Unknown options or missing values are validated before help/version, so a mistyped option can still fail instead of disappearing silently.

This website expands those concise terminal pages with examples and operating context. Follow the options reference for syntax and scope: many familiar switches such as --json and --limit apply only to specific commands.

Syntax and arguments#

aede help [command]

Optional canonical command name or alias; exactly one help topic.

Options for this command#

This command has no command-specific options.

The shared options reference explains --data, --no-color, --help/-h, --version/-v/-V, option values and output/pagination rules. These shared presentation/data options do not make every command support CSV/JSON or pagination.

Examples#

aede help
aede help fetch
aede fetch --help
aede --version

Result and errors#

Output describes the selected operation or catalog data. Read any per-item warnings and retained-work summary; a completed process is not an independent integrity or audio-quality guarantee. Invalid command syntax/options normally exit with code 2; handler failures normally exit with code 1. Local interruption differs from a delegated server task, as explained in cancel.
