Context: The current /help command lists available commands, but does not explain what each command does. This makes discovery harder for new or infrequent users.

Desired outcome: Update /help so each listed command includes a short, human-readable description.

Suggested MVP:

Keep the existing /help behavior and command coverage.
Add a concise one-line description next to or below each command.
Ensure descriptions are easy to update as commands change.

Acceptance criteria:

Running /help shows every currently supported command.
Each command has a short description of its purpose.
Output remains readable in the chat/transcript format.
