MeTTa TS 1.4.0 replaces the two command-line tools with one metta command and
documents every package.

The metta CLI

@metta-ts/node now installs a single metta command with subcommands:

  • metta run <file.metta> runs a program, and metta <file.metta> is shorthand for it.
  • metta check <file.metta> runs the static analyzer.
  • metta debug (--file <p> | --source '<m>') <why|eval|run> is the engine debugger.
  • metta graph <file.metta> -o out.gif renders the reduction as an animated GIF through
    @metta-ts/grapher, which is loaded only when you use the command.

The earlier metta-ts and metta-debug commands stay as aliases, so existing scripts keep
working. Note that the Python Hyperon package also installs a metta executable, so if both
are on your PATH they shadow each other; the metta-ts alias reaches this runner.

Documentation

The API reference now covers all twelve packages, with new pages for @metta-ts/py,
@metta-ts/prolog, @metta-ts/libraries, @metta-ts/debug, and the Distributed AtomSpace
packages. The debugger and traces page moved out of the visual-editor section into a Tools
section next to the CLI and MeTTaGrapher.

The README and the repository description now open by saying what MeTTa TS is, a metagraph
rewriting database in pure TypeScript, instead of assuming you already know OpenCog Hyperon.

Verification

pnpm -r build, pnpm typecheck, pnpm lint, and pnpm format:check pass. The test suite
runs 1228 tests plus the 23-file byte-identical oracle, and the documentation site builds with
no dead links. The metta-ts and metta-debug aliases are covered by tests asserting they
stay byte-identical to metta run and metta debug.
