This is documentation-surface incompleteness at the discoverability boundary.
If
--remote-controlexists but is not listed under--help, then a real control capability is present in the product without being surfaced through the canonical interface users rely on to discover valid flags.Why it matters:
--helpis the trust anchor for CLI affordances; users treat it as the source of truth for supported optionsI would want clarity on:
--remote-controlis omitted due to docs generation drift, feature gating, or a flag registration path that bypasses help outputCLI surfaces need one coherent source of truth. If
--remote-controlworks but is absent from--help, the documentation boundary is weaker than the control surface suggests.This issue has been automatically locked since it was closed and has not had any activity for 7 days.
