Everything the TUI does can also be scripted with flags: `python audiobook.py --backend audiocpp --model higgs --voice narrator`. To convert a single book file instead of the whole input directory, pass `--input-file` (and optionally `--output-file`): `python audiobook.py --input-file books/dune.epub --output-file out/dune.mp3`. The directory flags (`--input`/`--output`) and the single-book flags (`--input-file`/`--output-file`) are mutually exclusive pairs — mixing one stops with an error explaining both.
+Note: unlike the TUI, the CLI does **not** start or stop backend servers — point it at a server that is already running. You can manually launch servers in the TUI too.
+
+```bash
+python audiobook.py --backend audiocpp --model qwen3_tts_1_7b_base_q8_0 --voice narrator
+
+python audiobook.py --backend audiocpp --model qwen3_tts_1_7b_customvoice_q8_0 --voice Vivian
