## Discover Commands

```bash
asc --help                        # list all top-level commands
asc <command> --help              # list subcommands and flags
asc <command> <subcommand> --help # detailed usage for a specific action
```

Examples:
```bash
asc versions --help               # see: list, create, submit, set-build, check-readiness
asc builds --help                 # see: list, upload, archive, add-beta-group, ...
asc testflight --help             # see: groups, testers
asc iap --help                    # see: list, create, submit, price-points, prices
```

## Follow the Affordances

Every JSON response includes an `affordances` field with ready-to-run next commands. Always use these instead of constructing commands manually — they are state-aware.

```json
{
  "id": "6748760927",
  "name": "My App",
  "affordances": {
    "listVersions": "asc versions list --app-id 6748760927"
  }
}
```

## Output Formats

```bash
asc apps list                    # compact JSON (default)
asc apps list --pretty           # pretty-printed JSON
asc apps list --output table     # human-readable table
```
