 //!
 //! Command-line interface for executing code in MCP sandbox,
 //! inspecting servers, and generating virtual filesystems.
+//!
+//! # Architecture
+//!
+//! The CLI is organized around subcommands:
+//! - `introspect` - Analyze MCP servers and display capabilities
+//! - `generate` - Generate code from MCP server tools
+//! - `execute` - Execute WASM modules in sandbox
+//! - `server` - Manage MCP server connections
+//! - `stats` - Display runtime statistics
+//! - `debug` - Debug utilities and diagnostics
+//! - `config` - Configuration management
+//!
+//! # Examples
+//!
+//! ```bash
+//! # Introspect a server
+//! mcp-cli introspect vkteams-bot
+//!
+//! # Generate code
+//! mcp-cli generate vkteams-bot --output ./generated
+//!
+//! # Execute WASM module
+//! mcp-cli execute module.wasm --entry main
+//! ```

+//! # Examples
