 ## Logging Pattern
 Use `console.error` / `console.warn` / `console.info` / `console.debug` — no external logger. Color via `picocolors` in CLI output only.
 
-## CLI Command Pattern
-Each command is in its own file with a registration function:
-```ts
-// src/cli/agent.ts
-export function agentCommand(program: Command, config: Config, workspace: string): void {
-  program.command('agent')
-    .description('...')
-    .option('-m, --message <text>', 'Single message to process')
-    .action(async (opts) => { /* ... */ })
-}

-// src/cli/commands.ts (bootstrap)
-export function createCli(): Command {
-  const program = new Command('nanobot')...
-  const config = loadConfig(opts.config);
-  const workspace = resolveWorkspacePath(config.agent.workspacePath);
-  gatewayCommand(program, config, workspace);
-  agentCommand(program, config, workspace);
