# overlane assistant feedback

{/* Generated by apps/docs/scripts/generate.mjs (CLI pages from the command registry in packages/cli). Do not edit; run `pnpm --filter @overlane/docs gen`. */}

Records a thumbs up or down on an answer, with an optional note. A thumbs down on a documentation answer also opens a gap for the docs team and prints its reference. Rating the same answer again replaces the rating. Secrets in the note are removed.

## Usage

```sh
overlane assistant feedback --conversation ID --message ID --rating up|down [--note TEXT] [--service URL] [--team TENANT_ID] [--dry-run]
```

## Flags

| Flag | Type | Required | Default | Description |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `--conversation` | string | yes |  | The conversation the answer is in |
| `--message` | string | yes |  | The answer's message ID, from `overlane assistant conversation` |
| `--rating` | one of `up`, `down` | yes |  | up if it helped, down if it did not |
| `--note` | string | no |  | What was good or missing, up to 500 characters |
| `--service` | string | no |  | The service address (default: OVERLANE_SERVICE_URL, then the project's binding, then the hosted service) |
| `--team` | string | no |  | The team (tenant) to act on (default: the one your token belongs to) |
| `--dry-run` | boolean | no |  | Print the requests and file changes this command would make, then stop. Needs no credentials. |

## Examples

```sh
overlane assistant feedback --conversation setup --message msg_1 --rating up
overlane assistant feedback --conversation setup --message msg_1 --rating down --note "No steps for GitLab"
```

## Behavior

- Effect: `write` (changes local or hosted state).
- Needs credentials: yes. Uses the network: yes.
- Supports `--dry-run`: yes. Accepts `--force`: no.
- Machine-readable description: `overlane schema assistant feedback`.

## Result

With `--json` (the default when stdout is not a terminal) the command prints this JSON Schema's shape on stdout.
