What it shows

scoutica info reads profile.json, rules.yaml, and evidence.json from the card directory and prints a formatted summary. The summary includes:
FieldSource file
Nameprofile.jsonname
Titleprofile.jsontitle
Seniorityprofile.jsonseniority
Availabilityprofile.jsonavailability
Remote policyrules.yamlremote.policy
Evidence item countevidence.json → count of items
Rule file countrules/ directory — number of .md files

Expected output

  Alice Developer
  Lead Engineering Manager (lead)
  Availability: immediately

  Profile:  profile.json
  Remote:   remote_only
  Evidence: 3 items
  Rules:    4 rule files
info is a quick local inspection tool. It reads from files in the specified directory and does not validate the card against schemas. Run scoutica validate to check for schema errors.

Error behavior

If profile.json is not found in the target directory, the command exits with code 1 and a message:
  ❌ No profile.json found in ./my-card
     Run 'scoutica init' first to create your card.
