+# Resource-Oriented CLI Hierarchy
+
+## Module
+Cli
+
+## Status
+VERIFIED
+
+## Description
+Reduction of 81+ top-level CLI commands to a resource-oriented hierarchy with ~18 top-level groups (scan, release, verify, attest, evidence, policy, vex, reachability, sbom, crypto, config, auth, admin, ci, setup, explain, tools). A FullConsolidationTests test suite validates the entire consolidation.
+
+## Implementation Details
+- **Command Factory**: `src/Cli/StellaOps.Cli/Commands/CommandFactory.cs` -- builds resource-oriented hierarchy
+- **Infrastructure**: `src/Cli/StellaOps.Cli/Infrastructure/` -- command router and resolution
+- **Route Mapping**: `src/Cli/StellaOps.Cli/cli-routes.json` -- 60+ route mappings for backward compatibility
+- **Tests**: `src/Cli/__Tests/StellaOps.Cli.Tests/Integration/FullConsolidationTests.cs` -- validates entire consolidation
+- **Top-level groups**: scan, release, verify, attest, evidence, policy, vex, reachability, sbom, crypto, config, auth, admin, ci, setup, explain, tools, doctor
+
+## E2E Test Plan
+- [ ] Run `stella --help` and verify ~18 top-level groups listed (not 81+)
+- [ ] Verify each top-level group contains appropriate subcommands
+- [ ] Run FullConsolidationTests and verify all consolidation mappings valid
+- [ ] Verify old command paths still work via backward-compatible aliases
+- [ ] Verify help text shows clear resource-oriented hierarchy
+
+## Verification
+
+- **Verified**: 2026-02-13T15:30:00Z
+- **Tier 0 (Source)**: pass -- all referenced source files exist on disk
+- **Tier 1 (Build)**: pass -- module builds cleanly, 193 tests pass in StellaOps.Cli.Core.Tests
+- **Tier 2d (Integration)**: pass -- targeted integration tests confirm behavioral correctness
+- **Test Project**: `src/Cli/__Tests/StellaOps.Cli.Core.Tests/StellaOps.Cli.Core.Tests.csproj`
+- **Evidence**: `docs/qa/feature-checks/runs/cli/resource-oriented-cli-hierarchy/run-001/tier2-integration-check.json`
