Hi, I'm having issues getting the --help parameter to work with my pipeline. Are there any limitations I should be aware of? I get this error: Parameter

help

was specified on the command line or params file but is not declared in the script or config Anyone know what this means? I followed the docs and am using nf-schema 2.6.1 and have validation { help { enabled = true } } In my config. The pipeline is quite large so it might be something else but am not sure what to look for. It started around the time I transitioned from NXF_VER=25.04.8 to 25.10.2

I think you still have to declare the

help

parameter in your

params

block. Certainly the

nf-core/tools

template still does. And the error you are getting I believe is coming from the

nextflow

strict syntax which I am guessing disallows undefined params being passed.

That resolved my error, but --help still doesn't do anything 😞

Hmm, looking again at nf-core, we explicitly call

paramsHelp

. @Nicolas Vannieuwkerke are the docs for help out of date here?

The latest versions of nf-schema allow both help messages via the config options or via the function.

Ok, thank you, that minimal example really helps
