Source: https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/cli/-/blob/main/CONTRIBUTING.md

Illustrates the noun-first, verb-second grammatical structure used in GitLab CLI commands, with examples for common verbs like create, list, get, update, and delete.

```markdown
- `create` - Used when creating a singular object. For example, `glab mr create`
  creates a new merge request.
- `list` - Used by commands that output more than one object at a time. For example, 
  `glab ci list` returns a list of all running pipelines.
- `get` - Used by commands that output a singular object at a time. For example, 
  `glab ci get --pipeline-id 1` returns the pipeline with the specified ID.
- `update` - Used by commands that update one object at a time. For example, 
  `glab mr update 1 --title "new title"` updates the title of the merge request with ID `1`.
- `delete` - Used when deleting one or more objects at time. For example, `glab ci delete 1,2,3`
  deletes the pipelines with IDs `1`, `2`, and `3`.
