Module

Cli

VERIFIED

Improved help text generation showing the new command hierarchy with clear categories for better discoverability.

Command Factory: src/Cli/StellaOps.Cli/Commands/CommandFactory.cs -- builds command hierarchy with descriptive help text
Command Groups: All command groups under src/Cli/StellaOps.Cli/Commands/ provide description strings for new Command("name", "description")
Tests: src/Cli/__Tests/StellaOps.Cli.Tests/Integration/HelpTextTests.cs -- validates help text output
Resource hierarchy: ~18 top-level groups (scan, release, verify, attest, evidence, policy, vex, reachability, sbom, crypto, config, auth, admin, ci, setup, explain, tools, doctor)

Run stella --help and verify top-level command categories are listed with descriptions
Run stella scan --help and verify scan subcommands listed with descriptions
Run stella config --help and verify config subsections (notify, feeds, integrations, etc.)
Verify each top-level command group has a meaningful description
Verify --help works on every subcommand level
Verify help text shows option descriptions and default values
