 This command displays the project that is currently set for CLI operations. Use this to verify which project will be affected by commands like `lightdash validate`, `lightdash preview`, and `lightdash deploy`.
 
+### `lightdash config rename-project`
+
+Rename the currently selected project. This updates the project name in Lightdash and also refreshes your local CLI context so subsequent commands use the new name.
+
+```bash
+lightdash config rename-project --name "<new name>"
+```
+
+Use this after selecting a project with [`lightdash config set-project`](#lightdash-config-set-project) when you want to change the display name without leaving the CLI. Check the current selection first with [`lightdash config get-project`](#lightdash-config-get-project).
+
+This command only changes the project name. It does not modify warehouse connection settings or dbt configuration, and it does not trigger a recompile.
+
+**Options:**
+
+- `--name <name>` (required)
+  - The new name for the selected project
+
+**Requirements:**
+
+- A project must already be selected via `lightdash config set-project`.
+- Your user must have a role with permission to update project details.
+
+**Example:**
+
+Rename the currently selected project to "Analytics":
+
+```bash
+lightdash config rename-project --name "Analytics"
+```
+
+On success, the CLI prints a confirmation with the new project name.
+
 ### `lightdash config list-projects`
 
 List all non-preview projects in your organization.
