-CML provides a number of commands to help package the outputs of ML workflows
-into a CML report, which may include numeric data or model performance
-visualizations. Let's look at the typical sequence (after
-[configuration](/doc/user-guide)):
-
-∞ `cml runner` launches a runner hosted by a cloud compute provider or
-[on-premise](/doc/self-hosted-runners).
-
-∞ `cml pr` commits a set of files to a new branch and create a pull request.
-
-∞ `cml comment` posts a Markdown report as a comment on a commit or pull/merge
-request.

+## CML Commands
+
+CML provides a number of commands to help package the outputs of ML workflows
+(including numeric data and visualizations about model performance) into a CML
+report.
+
+Below is a list of CML commands for starting cloud compute runners, writing and
+publishing Markdown reports to your CI/CD system.
+
+∞ **[`runner`](/doc/ref/runner)**\
+Launch a runner hosted by a cloud compute provider or locally on-premise (see [self-hosted runners](/doc/self-hosted-runners))\
+e.g. `cml runner launch --cloud={aws,azure,gcp,kubernetes} ...`
+
+∞ **[`pr`](/doc/ref/pr)**\
+Commit specified files to a new branch and create a pull request\
+e.g. `cml pr create "**/*.json" "**/*.py" --md >> report.md`
+
+∞ **[`comment`](/doc/ref/comment)**\
+Post a Markdown report as a commit comment\
+e.g. `cml comment create report.md`
+
+∞ **[`check`](/doc/ref/check)**\
+Post a Markdown report as a GitHub check\
+e.g. `cml check create report.md`
+
+∞ **[`tensorboard`](/doc/ref/tensorboard)**\
+Return a link to a page\
+e.g. `cml tensorboard connect --logdir=./logs --md >> report.md`
+
+### CML Reports
+
+The `cml comment create` command can be used to post reports. CML reports are
+written in Markdown ([GitHub](https://github.github.com/gfm),
+[GitLab](https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/user/markdown.html), or
+[Bitbucket](https://confluence.atlassian.com/bitbucketserver/markdown-syntax-guide-776639995.html)
+flavors). That means they can contain images, tables, formatted text, HTML
+blocks, code snippets and more — really, what you put in a CML report is up to
+you. Some examples:
+
+📝 **Text** Write to your report using whatever method you prefer. For example,
+copy the contents of a text file containing the results of ML model training:
+
+```cli
+$ cat results.txt >> report.md
+```
+
+🖼️ **Images** Display images using the markdown or HTML. Note that if an image
+is an output of your ML workflow (i.e. it is produced by your workflow), you can
+use markdown to embed it in a CML report. For example, if `plot.png` is output
+by `python train.py`, run:
+
+```cli
+$ echo '![](./plot.png)' >> report.md
+$ cml comment create report.md
+```
