The reference section is the authoritative listing of ScaiCore's surfaces. Use it when you need to look up an exact flag, an exit code, or the precise behavior of a command.

## In this section

- [CLI](./reference/cli) — every `scaicore` subcommand with its options, output format, and exit codes.

Pages that document the runtime embedding API (`CoreEngine`, `InvocationRequest`, host protocols) and the `.scaicore` language grammar will land here as the surface stabilizes.
