_See [mesheryctl Command Tracker](https://bit.ly/3dqXy1q) for current status of commands._ ### Current Behavior `mesheryctl model init` still advertises CSV in its examples even though the command validates `--output-format` with `oneof=json yaml` and the helper marks CSV as `TODO implement csv`. That leaves users with a documented option they cannot successfully use. ### Desired Behavior Either remove CSV from the user-facing help/examples for now, or fully implement CSV support so the help text matches the command behavior. ### Screenshots/Logs Relevant code path: - `mesheryctl/internal/cli/root/model/init.go` - example text: `--output-format [json|yaml|csv]` - validation tag: `oneof=json yaml` - unreachable CSV branch: `ErrModelUnsupportedOutputFormat("TODO implement csv")` ### Environment - Host OS: Linux - Meshery Server Version: stable-v - Meshery Client Version: current master - Platform: Docker Kubernetes --- ### Contributor [Guides](https://docs.meshery.io/project/contributing) and [Handbook](https://meshery.io/community#handbook) - 📚 [mesheryctl Contributing Guide](https://github.com/meshery/meshery/blob/master/mesheryctl/README.md) - 📺 [Beginner's guide to contributing to Meshery and mesheryctl](https://youtu.be/hh_kFLZx3G4) - ⌨️ [mesheryctl Command Tracker](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1q63sIGAuCnIeDs8PeM-0BAkNj8BBgPUXhLbe1Y-318o/edit#gid=0) - ⌨️ [Meshery CLI Commands and Documentation](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1xRlFpElRmybJ3WacgPKXgCSiQ2poJl3iCCV1dAalf0k/edit#heading=h.5fucij4hc5wt) - ⌨️ [Meshkit errors Guide](https://docs.meshery.io/project/contributing/contributing-error) - 🙋🏾🙋🏼 Questions: [Discussion Forum](https://meshery.io/community#community-forums) and [Community Slack](https://slack.meshery.io) - 📺 [Self-paced Contributor Trainings](https://meshery.io/talks-and-trainings#trainings)

Beschreibung

See mesheryctl Command Tracker for current status of commands.

Current Behavior

mesheryctl model init still advertises CSV in its examples even though the command validates --output-format with oneof=json yaml and the helper marks CSV as TODO implement csv.

That leaves users with a documented option they cannot successfully use.

Desired Behavior

Either remove CSV from the user-facing help/examples for now, or fully implement CSV support so the help text matches the command behavior.

Screenshots/Logs

Relevant code path:

mesheryctl/internal/cli/root/model/init.go
example text: --output-format [json|yaml|csv]
validation tag: oneof=json yaml
unreachable CSV branch: ErrModelUnsupportedOutputFormat("TODO implement csv")

Environment

Host OS: Linux
Meshery Server Version: stable-v
Meshery Client Version: current master
Platform: Docker Kubernetes

Research-Richtung: Aktualisieren Sie den Hilfetext in mesheryctl/internal/cli/root/model/init.go, um CSV aus dem Beispiel zu entfernen, oder implementieren Sie das CSV Ausgabeformat, um der Dokumentation zu entsprechen.
