 The `wac` CLI tool has the following commands:
 
 * `wac plug` - Plugs the imports of a component with one or more other components.
+* `wac compose` - Compose WebAssembly components using the provided WAC source file.
 * `wac parse` - Parses a composition into a JSON representation of the AST.
 * `wac resolve` - Resolves a composition into a JSON representation.
-* `wac encode` - Encodes a WAC source file as a WebAssembly component.

 Running the following command should produce a new component that is the composition of the `hello` and `greeter` components.
