## Notes

- The deploy mirror under `.deploy/artwork-evolution-release` contains equivalent command classes for deployment packaging, but this reference is sourced from the main repository tree.
- For commands that mutate production data, prefer running a dry-run mode first when one exists.
- For one-off scripts, read the file before using it. Several are intentionally ad hoc and may contain hardcoded IDs, paths, or assumptions.
