What

Rename the verb of POST from create to add: meili add documents.

Contract

• The command name and flags derive from its routes by the naming rules of docs/contract/commands.md, and each route is reachable by a distinct set of flags, or the exception is recorded with its reason (or this pull request changes the contract and nothing else)
• Output goes through src/lib/output.ts, errors through src/lib/errors.ts
• The command never waits for a human: no prompt, no question, no $EDITOR; a delete command spreads BaseCommand.confirmFlags and its examples carry --yes
• The command never speaks HTTP itself: the SDK or the generated client only, no fetch outside src/lib/clients/

Tests

• --help snapshot added or updated on purpose
• JSON output snapshot for one success case per route and one error case
• Integration test added (Meilisearch API commands only)
• pnpm lint, pnpm typecheck, pnpm test pass locally

Simplicity

• Nothing in the diff exists for a case the API cannot produce, a caller that does not exist, or a generality nobody asked for (rule 16)
• Anything shared lives in src/lib/, is used by this command, and is named below

Docs

• docs/contract/ updated for every name, flag, variable or code this change adds or renames, or nothing to update
• The ADRs that touch this change were read; what they decide still holds, or a new ADR says what changed
• No accepted ADR was edited. A new ADR was added if a decision changed.

This box cannot be ticked, on purpose. ADR 0003, 0004 and 0007 are edited in place, against rule 13. Nothing is released, the word create was never typed by a user, and an ADR 0011 that superseded 0003 over one word would make the founding decision unreadable for the next reader. The call is explicit here rather than silent: say the word and I turn it into a superseding ADR instead.

Housekeeping

• oclif.manifest.json regenerated
• Changeset added, or the change is invisible to users of the package (docs of this repository, tests, CI)
• New dependency justified below, or none added

Notes for the reviewer

Why add. meili create documents reads wrong: you add documents to an index, you do not create them, and the API itself calls that route documents.add. add reads as well as create did on every other resource, it is three letters, and it is the word an agent reaches for first after get. The price, written in ADR 0003: the CLI's verb no longer echoes the indexes.create and keys.create key actions. Nothing derives one from the other, a command declares its own keyActions from the document.

One line does the work. METHOD_VERBS.POST in src/lib/api-naming.ts. Every POST route to come is named from it, without touching anything again:

[ ] meili add indexes          POST /indexes
[ ] meili add keys             POST /keys
[ ] meili add webhooks         POST /webhooks
[ ] meili add teams            POST /api/v2/teams

The two that still read oddly are add dumps and add snapshots. They read no worse than create dumps did, and the plural, not the verb, is what makes them odd. ADR 0003 says so in its consequences rather than hiding it.

meili config add stays as it is in this pull request, and a follow-up renames the three config commands to set / list / unset, the vocabulary of git config and npm config. That is a decision about the config file, not about the API verb, so it travels in its own pull request.

Everything else is mechanical: the file move src/commands/create/ to src/commands/add/ (which is what renames the command, oclif derives the tree from the path), the class name, the manifest, the snapshots, and create to add in the contract, the changeset, CLAUDE.md, the README and the skill.

📝 Walkthrough

POST-derived command names now use add instead of create. The documents command class and generated command registration use the new name. Related command contracts, examples, and tests are updated.

Changes: POST command naming

Layer / File(s)	Summary
POST naming contract and derived IDs src/lib/api-naming.ts, docs/contract/commands.md, docs/adr/0003-*, docs/adr/0004-*, docs/adr/0007-*, test/lib/api-naming.test.ts, test/contract/api.test.ts, README.md, CLAUDE.md	The default verb for POST routes changes from create to add. The route examples and derived-command expectations use the updated verb.
Documents command, registration, and validation src/commands/add/documents.ts, oclif.manifest.json, package.json, test/commands/add/documents.test.ts, test/integration/meilisearch/add-documents.test.ts, .changeset/first-version.md, .claude/skills/add-command/SKILL.md	The documents command class and generated registration use add. Unit tests, integration tests, command examples, and the changeset use the updated command name. The manifest also updates auth and config command paths and metadata.

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 6d8f4

The command rename is otherwise consistent, but the accepted ADR edits violate a non-negotiable repository rule. Restore their historical text and record the new decision in a superseding ADR before merging.
