Shotgun has a few built-in commands and one of those is 'help'. When the help command is issued by itself it lists all the available commands and their description message. The help command also accepts an argument, the name of a specific command. If a specific command is specified then the help command will print the command, its usage syntax, its description, and list all the defined available options (if any) for the command.

You can also see a specific command's help information by passing "-?" or "--help" as an option to any command. Doing this will not invoke the command the option was passed to but will instead invoke "help commandName".
