-
-MVT can generate shell completion scripts for Bash, Zsh, and Fish:
-
-```bash
-mvt-ios completion
-mvt-android completion
-```
-
-The commands print setup instructions by default. To generate a completion script directly, pass the shell name:
-
-```bash
-mvt-ios completion bash
-mvt-android completion zsh
-```
-
-MVT only writes completion files or shell configuration when `--install` is passed. See the [command completion documentation](https://docs.mvt.re/en/latest/command_completion/) for details.
 Module-running `check-*` commands can load custom Python modules with
 `--load-module PATH` or from a folder set in `MVT_CUSTOM_MODULES`. See the
 [development documentation](https://docs.mvt.re/en/latest/development/) for
 details.
 
-Users can also add top-level commands to `mvt-ios` and `mvt-android` from
-installed Python packages or local files and folders. See the
-[custom CLI command documentation](https://docs.mvt.re/en/latest/custom_commands/)

-### VirusTotal package lookups
-
-AndroidQF records APK file hashes in `packages.json`. MVT can optionally look up non-system APK hashes on VirusTotal while checking an AndroidQF acquisition:
-
-```bash
-MVT_VT_API_KEY=<key> mvt-android check-androidqf --virustotal /path/to/androidqf-output
-```
-
-The `--virustotal` option is disabled by default because it sends APK hashes to VirusTotal and requires network access. It uses the `VT_API_KEY` MVT configuration value, which can also be provided through the `MVT_VT_API_KEY` environment variable.
-
-To avoid exhausting free VirusTotal API quotas, MVT waits 16 seconds between package hash requests by default. Use `--delay` to change the delay, or `--delay 0` to disable throttling:
-
-```bash
-mvt-android check-androidqf --virustotal --delay 30 /path/to/androidqf-output
-```

 ## Android Intrusion Logs
 
 On devices where the user has opted into Android's [**Advanced Protection Mode**](https://support.google.com/android/answer/16339980) and turned on the optional Intrusion Logging featrue, Android can create and archive structured *Intrusion Logs* in an encrypted format. These logs record DNS queries, outbound network connections, process starts, ADB activity and other security-relevant events, and are a high-fidelity complement to the rest of an AndroidQF acquisition. The logs are generated on-device and encrypted before being stored in the Google account associated with the device. The encryption key is protected by the user device PIN. The intrusion log data is not accessible to Google.

-# Custom CLI Commands
-
-MVT can load additional top-level commands into `mvt-ios` and `mvt-android`.
-Custom commands are different from [custom forensic modules](development.md#custom-modules):
-commands add new CLI operations, while modules add analysis steps to existing
-`check-*` commands.
-
-!!! warning
-
-    Custom commands run as trusted Python code inside the MVT process. Install
-    or load commands only from sources you trust. MVT does not sandbox
-    third-party commands, and the MVT maintainers do not maintain them.
-
-## Install a Command Package
-
-Python packages can register a Click command or group for either MVT CLI. A
-minimal package can expose this command from `my_mvt_plugin.py`:
-
-```python
-import click
-
-
-@click.command()
-@click.argument("path", type=click.Path(exists=True))
-def summarize(path):
-    """Summarize an acquisition."""
-    click.echo(f"Summarizing {path}")
-```
-
-Register the object in the package's `pyproject.toml`. The entry-point name is
-the command users invoke:
-
-```toml
-[project.entry-points."mvt.ios.cli_plugins"]
-summarize = "my_mvt_plugin:summarize"
-
-[project.entry-points."mvt.android.cli_plugins"]
-summarize = "my_mvt_plugin:summarize"
-```
-
-Use only the iOS or Android group if the command is platform-specific. After
-installing the package in the same environment as MVT, it appears directly in
-the appropriate CLI:
-
-```bash
-mvt-ios summarize ./ios-backup
-mvt-android summarize ./androidqf-output
-```
-
-For a `pipx` installation of MVT, inject the plugin into MVT's environment:
-
-```bash
-pipx inject mvt my-mvt-plugin
-```
-
-When MVT is installed in an active virtual environment, install the plugin with
-`pip` in that environment.
-
-## Load a Command File
-
-For local commands that are not packaged, create a Python file that exports one
-Click command or group named `cli`:
-
-```python
-import click
-
-
-@click.command("case-summary")
-@click.argument("path", type=click.Path(exists=True))
-def cli(path):
-    """Summarize a case directory."""
-    click.echo(f"Summarizing {path}")
-```
-
-Pass the file before the custom command name:
-
-```bash
-mvt-ios --load-command ./case_summary.py case-summary ./ios-backup
-```
-
-`--load-command` can be repeated and also accepts a folder. MVT loads
-non-hidden top-level `*.py` files in sorted order and skips `__init__.py`.
-Every loaded file must export one `cli` object.
-
-To load a file or folder on every invocation, set the platform-specific
-environment variable:
-
-```bash
-export MVT_IOS_CUSTOM_COMMANDS=./ios_commands
-export MVT_ANDROID_CUSTOM_COMMANDS=./android_commands
-```
-
-## Naming and Errors
-
-Built-in MVT commands cannot be replaced. External command names must also be
-unique; when installed packages or environment paths collide, MVT keeps the
-first command and logs a warning. A collision from an explicit
-`--load-command` is a usage error.
-
-A package entry point or environment command that cannot be imported appears
-as a marked broken command without preventing other MVT commands from working.
-Invoke that command to see its package or file source and the underlying error.
-An invalid command supplied explicitly with `--load-command` fails immediately
-with a usage error.
-
-Installed command packages use the entry-point name as the CLI command name.
-The entry point must resolve to a `click.Command` or `click.Group`.

Each timestamp stored on a contact record produces a timeline event: `disappearing_mode_set` (when the disappearing messages timer was last changed), `about_changed` (when the contact last changed their "about" text), `about_expiration` (when a timed "about" is scheduled to expire) and `contact_last_updated` (when the contact record was last updated).
-
-This database is often missing from incremental backups. When it cannot be found, the module logs a warning and produces no results, in which case the disappearing messages state of chats cannot be determined from the backup.

-# Check an iOS Sysdiagnose
-
-`mvt-ios check-sysdiagnose` prepares an iOS sysdiagnose archive for analysis by
-custom MVT modules. MVT does not include built-in sysdiagnose modules. You must
-load at least one custom module that explicitly supports this command.
-
-The command accepts either an extracted sysdiagnose directory or the original
-gzip-compressed tar archive.
-
-```bash
-mvt-ios check-sysdiagnose \
-    --load-module ./sysdiagnose_modules.py \
-    --output ./results \
-    ./sysdiagnose_2024.01.02_03-04-05+0200.tar.gz
-```
-
-Use `--hashes` to include hashes for analyzed files in `info.json`, and
-`--list-modules` to display the eligible custom modules without running them.
-
-## Writing a custom module
-
-Extend `SysdiagnoseExtraction` to access the archive contents consistently for
-both directory and tar inputs. Each module must declare the command explicitly
-in `supported_commands`.
-
-```python
-from mvt.ios.modules.sysdiagnose import SysdiagnoseExtraction
-
-
-class ExampleSysdiagnoseModule(SysdiagnoseExtraction):
-    supported_commands = (("ios", "check-sysdiagnose"),)
-    slug = "example_sysdiagnose"
-
-    def run(self):
-        paths = self._get_files_by_pattern("*/example.log")
-        if paths:
-            content = self._get_file_content(paths[0]).decode("utf-8", "replace")
-            self.results = [{"content": content}]
-
-    def check_indicators(self):
-        pass
-
-    def serialize(self, result):
-        return None
-```
-
-The base class provides `from_sysdiagnose_folder()` and
-`from_sysdiagnose_tar()` setup hooks, as well as protected file lookup, file
-reading, and timezone extraction helpers. IPS crash-report metadata is exposed
-on `ips_files`.
