$ARGUMENTS
Vector operations via the `ruvector` npm package (pinned to 0.2.25). Parse subcommand from $ARGUMENTS.

## Setup helper

For first-run users hitting `ONNX WASM files not bundled`, `Brain commands require @ruvector/pi-brain`, or `SONA not available`, invoke the `vector-setup` skill: `/vector-setup`.

## MCP server (91 tools)

- Register once: `claude mcp add ruvector -- npx -y ruvector@0.2.25 mcp start`
- Verify: `claude mcp list | grep ruvector`
- Then call MCP tools directly (e.g. `hooks_route`, `hooks_ast_analyze`, `hooks_rag_context`, `brain_search`, `attention_list`).

## Not in 0.2.25 (do not invoke)

`compare`, top-level `index`, `midstream`, `embed --file`, `embed --batch --glob`, `cluster --namespace --k` (top-level `cluster` is "Coming Soon"), `embed --model poincare`, `optimize` (per its own message: "not yet shipped in this release"), `brain agi *` (use `brain status` directly).
