+# Affordance
+
+Per-command usage guidance for the CLI, authored as one markdown file per domain
+(`<service>.md`). It is surfaced in `lark-cli <command> --help` and in the
+`schema` output, and read directly at runtime (lazy, cached) — there is no build
+step. Maintain these files alongside `skills/` and `shortcuts/`.
+
+## Format
+
+A small, fixed markdown subset; each file describes one domain:
+
+    # <domain>            optional `> skill: <name>` applies to every command below
+    ## <command>          the command as typed, minus `lark-cli <domain>`
+    <lead paragraph>      when to use this command
+    ### Avoid when        when not to use it / which command to use instead
+    ### Prerequisites     what you must have first (e.g. an id, and where it comes from)
+    ### Tips              gotchas and constraints
+    ### Examples          **description** lines, each followed by a fenced command
+    ### <other heading>   a custom section; flows through verbatim
+
+Reference another command with `[[command]]` — it renders as `command` in help.
+Under `Avoid when` it means "use that one instead"; under `Prerequisites`
+("… from [[command]]") it means "get the input there first".
+
+## Example
+
+    ## messages get
+    Fetch the full content of a single message by id.
+
+    ### Avoid when
+    - Reading several at once → use [[messages batch_get]]
+
+    ### Prerequisites
+    - message_id from [[messages list]]
+
+    ### Examples
+
+    **Fetch one message**
+    ```bash
+    lark-cli mail user_mailbox.messages get --message-id "<id>"
+    ```
+
+## Notes
+
+- Write plain prose; the only convention is wrapping command references in `[[ ]]`.
+- Keep it concise and high-signal — don't restate field/flag names, id types, or
+  anything the schema and flags already show; the agent infers the rest.
+- Command-form headings resolve to method ids via the registry, so plural resource
+  names (`messages`) map to the singular method id (`message`) automatically.

+## user_profiles batch_query
+Bulk-fetch personal status and signature for user ids you already have.
+
+### Avoid when
+- Need more than status/signature (name, dept, email), or don't have the open_id yet → use [[+search-user]]
+
+### Tips
+- Off by default — set include_personal_status / include_description to true under query_option
+- ids in user_ids must match --user-id-type (default open_id)
+
+### Examples
+
+**Bulk-query status and signature**
+```bash
+lark-cli contact user_profiles batch_query --data '{"user_ids":["ou_3a8b****6a7b"],"query_option":{"include_personal_status":true,"include_description":true}}'

-USAGE:
-    lark-cli <command> [subcommand] [method] [options]
-    lark-cli api <method> <path> [--params <json>] [--data <json>]
-    lark-cli schema <service.resource.method>
+AGENT QUICKSTART (driving this as an agent? start here):
+    Browse commands:  lark-cli <domain> --help            # +shortcuts (preferred) and raw API resources
+    Inspect a call:   lark-cli schema <service>.<resource>.<method>   # params, types, scopes, examples
+    Prefer a +shortcut over the raw API resource when one matches the task.
+    Risk: each command's --help shows read | write | high-risk-write;
+          high-risk-write needs --yes, only after the user confirms.
+    On any API call: --jq <expr> filters JSON output, --dry-run previews the request (runs nothing).
 
-EXAMPLES:
-    # View upcoming events
-    lark-cli calendar +agenda
+EXAMPLES (one per command style, in order of preference):
+    lark-cli calendar +agenda                                       # +shortcut — a high-level task, prefer these
+    lark-cli mail user_mailbox.messages list --user-mailbox-id me   # typed command for one API method
+    lark-cli schema mail.user_mailbox.messages.list                 # inspect a method's params before calling
+    lark-cli api GET /open-apis/calendar/v4/calendars               # raw escape hatch — any endpoint by HTTP path`

-## Migration
-
-**Strategy shift (2026-05-26).** The original plan (`docs/design/errors-refactor/spec.md` v2.12 §9) was a centrally-driven 4-PR rollout — framework → auth domain → multi-pilot → full-repo + legacy removal. That plan is **superseded** by a hybrid model: framework owner ships framework-level hardening (including a typed `*errs.*Error` migration of `internal/**`) as one focused PR; business-domain typed migration is **self-service** via [`docs/errors-guide.md`](../docs/errors-guide.md) and the builder API, with no central sweep timeline.
-
-Why the shift: 800+ legacy call sites split across 8+ business domains do not all share a single reviewer's bandwidth, and the contract is now expressive enough that each domain owner can migrate their own code from the guide without coordinating with framework owner.
-
-### Current state
-
-1. **Framework slice — ✅ shipped (PR #984).** The `errs/` typed taxonomy, classifier (`internal/errclass`), promotion stub (`internal/errcompat`, passthrough), dispatcher hook (`WriteTypedErrorEnvelope`), and the `lint/errscontract` AST guards. Wire shapes preserved byte-for-byte versus pre-PR, with **one intentional semantic fix**: config-class errors (`*core.ConfigError`) now exit `3` instead of `2`, aligning with `ExitCodeForCategory` (config errors share the auth exit slot per the taxonomy). The classifier and promote helpers are *shipped but unused* in production paths — they exist so framework migration can plug in without re-architecting.
-
-2. **Builder API — ✅ shipped (this branch).** `errs/types.go` adds the canonical producer surface (`errs.NewXxxError(subtype, format, args...).WithX(...)`) for all 10 typed types, alongside each struct declaration. Constructor signature pins `Category` (via function name) and `Subtype` + `Message` (positional), so the producer cannot mis-specify any of the three identity fields. Optional fields chain through `.WithX(...)` setters that preserve the concrete pointer type.

-- **CHANGELOG** lists the resulting ~10 shell-exit-code shifts in one release entry (vs the spec §1 spread of 11 — the remaining one site lives in `task` business code).
-
-### Business-domain migration (self-service, no central timeline)
-
-Each business package migrates its own `output.Err*` call sites to the builder when convenient — typically batched within one domain. The guide at [`docs/errors-guide.md`](../docs/errors-guide.md) walks owners through the 8 typical error modes (validation / authorization / authentication / config / network / api / internal / policy) with real `file:line` examples from main. The three-layer extension model (add Subtype / add field / add Category) handles cases the existing taxonomy does not cover.
-
-Helper assertions accept both shapes during migration (see `shortcuts/mail/mail_shortcut_validation_test.go` `assertValidationError`) so domain migrations stay green incrementally.
-
-### Legacy removal
-
-Deferred until business migration completion approaches the asymptote. `Errorf`, `ErrAPI`, `ErrAuth`, `ErrWithHint`, `ErrBare`, `ClassifyLarkError`, `ErrDetail`, `ExitError`, and `ErrorEnvelope` are `// Deprecated:` today and stay callable. No fixed removal date.
