--format text | json text Output shape (accepted by every subcommand)

  • json — One JSON document, deterministic

Examples

  • Whether the published one-line installation works right now

    The operator's question — *can a machine that has never seen this project install it with the advertised command?* — answered from the distribution model and the release records, without touching the network. Each check names what was observed; a failing one names its cause and the command that changes it. Shown here in a repository that has published nothing, where the answer is no and the exit code is 10, which is what makes it usable as a check rather than as prose. `distribution validate` is the gate over the model itself; this is the gate over the state a user meets.

    $ majordomus distribution status

    Verified by the example tests: exits 10.

Where this comes from

Declared once in apps/majordomus-cli/src/cli.rs: clap for the structure, typed Rust metadata beside it for the examples. This page, majordomus distribution status --help, docs/generated/cli.md and docs/generated/cli.json are projections of that one declaration.

The whole command line on one page: the registry's command-line page. The task lifecycle (init, start, finish, doctor, ...) belongs to the shell tool, a different program: Commands and its specification.
