Description

Brief description of your issue

I am running a script that does not allow interactive programs like the wizard in here. Can you please add documentation in skipping the wizard by doing it in a single line?

Research direction

The issue names no file, test, or command entry point. Start by locating the current documentation for the interactive wizard and the CLI path it describes; document the supported single-line, non-interactive workflow for scripts. Done means a newcomer can follow the documentation without launching the wizard.
