 When `enforce_client_ids` is enabled, clients that don't support SASL2 and provide a client id will be
 denied access.
 
+## Shell usage
+
+You can use this module via the Prosody shell. For example, to list a user's
+clients:
+
+```shell
+prosodyctl shell user clients user@example.com
+```
+
 ## Compatibility
 
 Requires Prosody trunk (as of 2023-03-29). Not compatible with Prosody 0.12
 and earlier.

+### Protocol
+
+#### Listing clients
+
+To list clients that have access to the user's account, send the following
+stanza:
+
+```xml
+<iq id="p" type="get">
+  <list xmlns="xmpp:prosody.im/protocol/manage-clients"/>
+</iq>
+```
+
+The server will respond with a list of clients:
+
+```xml
+<iq id="p" to="mattj-gajim@auth2.superxmpp.com/gajim.UYJKBHKT" type="result" xmlns="jabber:client">
+  <clients xmlns="xmpp:prosody.im/protocol/manage-clients">
+    <client connected="true" id="client/zeiP41HLglIu" type="session">
+      <first-seen>2023-04-06T14:26:08Z</first-seen>
+      <last-seen>2023-04-06T14:37:25Z</last-seen>
+      <auth>
+        <password/>
+      </auth>
+      <user-agent>
+        <software>Gajim</software>
+        <uri>https://gajim.org/</uri>
+        <device>Juliet's laptop</device>
+      </user-agent>
+    </client>
+    <client connected="false" id="grant/HjEEr45_LQr" type="access">
+      <first-seen>2023-03-27T15:16:09Z</first-seen>
+      <last-seen>2023-03-27T15:37:24Z</last-seen>
+      <user-agent>
+        <software>REST client</software>
+      </user-agent>
+    </client>
+  </clients>
+</iq>
+```
+
+On the `<client/>` tag most things are self-explanatory. The following attributes
+are defined:
+
+- 'connected': a boolean that reflects whether this client has an active session
+on the server (i.e. this includes connected and "hibernating" sessions).
+- 'id': an opaque reference for the client, which can be used to revoke access.
+- 'type': either `"session"` if this client is known to have an active or inactive
+  client session on the server, or "access" if no session has been established (e.g.
+  it may have been granted access to the account, but only used non-XMPP APIs or
+  never logged in).
+
+The `<first-seen/>` and `<last-seen/>` elements contain timestamps that reflect
+when a client was first granted access to the user's account, and when it most
+recently used that access. For active sessions, it may reflect the current
+time or the time of the last login.
+
+The `<user-agent/>` element contains information about the client software. It
+may contain any of three optional child elements, each containing text content:
+
+- `<software/>` - the name of the software
+- `<uri/>` - a URI/URL for the client, such as a homepage
+- `<device/>` - a human-readable identifier/name for the device where the client
+  runs
+
+The `<auth/>` element lists the known authentication methods that the client
+has used to gain access to the account. The following elements are defined:
+
+- `<password/>` - the client has presented a valid password
+- `<grant/>` - the client has a valid authorization grant (e.g. via OAuth)
+- `<fast/>` - the client has active FAST tokens
+
+#### Revoking access
+
+To revoke a client's access, send a `<revoke/>` element with an 'id' attribute
+containing one of the client ids fetched from the list:
+
+```xml
+<iq id="p" type="set">
+  <revoke xmlns="xmpp:prosody.im/protocol/manage-clients" id="grant/HjEEr45_LQr" />
+</iq>
+```
+
+The server will respond with an empty result if the revocation succeeds:
+
+```xml
+<iq id="p" type="result" />
+```
+
+If the client has previously authenticated with a password, there is no way to
+revoke access except by changing the user's password. If you request
+revocation of such a client, the server will respond with a 'service-unavailable'
+error, with the 'password-reset-required' application error:
+
+```xml
+<iq id="p" type="error">
+  <error type="cancel">
+    <service-unavailable xmlns="xmlns='urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:xmpp-stanzas'">
+    <password-reset-required xmlns="xmpp:prosody.im/protocol/manage-clients"/>
+  </error>
+</iq>
+```
