# Notes Commands

The `notes` command group manages control implementation notes. Notes are used to track gaps, manual follow-up items, and implementation context for specific controls.

## List Notes

    pretorin notes list ac-02 fedramp-moderate --system "My System"

## Add a Note

    pretorin notes add ac-02 fedramp-moderate \
      --content "Gap: Missing SSO evidence. Manual next step: collect IdP configuration screenshots."

## Gap Note Format

When adding notes for unresolved gaps, use this structured format:

    Gap: <short title>
    Observed: <what was verifiably found>
    Missing: <what could not be verified>
    Why missing: <access/system limitation>
    Manual next step: <explicit user/platform action>

This format ensures consistency across CLI, MCP, and agent workflows when documenting compliance gaps.
