fix: always show the blocks command in help - #653
Merged
Conversation
The blocks command was hidden from help unless the CLI detected it was being run by an AI coding agent. Nothing about the command is agent-specific: its descriptions are audience-neutral and its reference docs already advertise it as a normal public command. Cobra's Hidden only suppresses help listing and never blocks dispatch, so the gate hid the command from humans who could already run it. It also made generated docs depend on the environment. docgen skips commands failing IsAvailableCommand(), which is false for hidden commands, so `make rc` from a plain terminal would have deleted slack_blocks.md and slack_blocks_preview.md and dropped blocks from slack.md. Agent detection is still used for the User-Agent header, telemetry, and tracing; only the visibility gate is removed.
