Is there a required condition?\n\nAlways\n\n### What is the expected behavior? Why is that the expected behavior?\n\nWhatever is documented in the CLI documentation should also be documented in the node manpage\n\n### What do you see instead?\n\nThe following options are missing:\n - `build-snapshot`\n - `build-snapshot-config`\n - `disable-sigusr1`\n - `disable-warning`\n - `dns-result-order`\n - `enable-network-family-autoselection`\n - `env-file-if-exists`\n - `env-file`\n - `experimental-network-inspection`\n - `experimental-print-required-tla`\n - `experimental-require-module`\n - `experimental-sea-config`\n - `experimental-worker-inspection`\n - `expose-gc`\n - `force-node-api-uncaught-exceptions-policy`\n - `import`\n - `network-family-autoselection-attempt-timeout`\n - `no-async-context-frame`\n - `no-experimental-detect-module`\n - `no-experimental-global-navigator`\n - `no-experimental-require-module`\n - `no-network-family-autoselection`\n - `openssl-legacy-provider`\n - `openssl-shared-config`\n - `report-dir`\n - `report-directory`\n - `report-exclude-env`\n - `report-exclude-network`\n - `run`\n - `snapshot-blob`\n - `trace-env`\n - `trace-env-js-stack`\n - `trace-env-native-stack`\n - `trace-require-module`\n - `use-system-ca`\n - `watch-preserve-output`\n\n### Additional information\n\nThey need to be added in the [appropriate node.1 section](https://github.com/nodejs/node/blob/8b199eef3dd4de910a6521adc42ae611a62a19e1/doc/node.1#L60).\n\nAfterwords the following code, since no longer necessary, needs to be removed:\nhttps://github.com/nodejs/node/blob/4b4aaf921fda21c329caf349b23c0620867e4e6c/test/parallel/test-cli-node-cli-manpage-options.mjs#L21-L60","author":{"url":"https://github.com/dario-piotrowicz","@type":"Person","name":"dario-piotrowicz"},"datePublished":"2025-06-29T22:11:40.000Z","interactionStatistic":{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":"https://schema.org/CommentAction","userInteractionCount":16},"url":"https://github.com/58895/node/issues/58895"}
