I became aware earlier today of a previous project using the name "Vostok", and as I don't particularly like the idea of tram=pling someone else's namespace I went ahead and renamed the project to "Zond". The Soviet Zond program entailed a series of automated flights which explored the near planets and the moon, culminating in several lunar orbital missions including one with several live organisms on board. I think it's a fitting, still "spacey" name. Bonus - it's also two characters shorter.
Other than this change, I've saved the generated commpletions in the `data` subdirectory of the source repo, as they will only ever need to be regenerated if and when the Cli is changed. As such I also put their generation behind a feature gate.
