Command is an organization that oversees and commands YoRHa forces. They are responsible for receiving orders from the Council of Humanity and relaying them to the appropriate individuals.^[2][3] The term also refers to the command center of the Bunker where Command operates.^{[4][5][Note 1]}

Contact with the Council is primarily maintained by Commander White.^[3][8] Operators are assigned to interface with deployed YoRHa units and convey received orders, among other duties.^[9][10] This includes providing combat/intel updates,^[11] regularly-scheduled check-ins,^[12][13] and reporting back to the rest of Command.^[9][14][15]

Trivia

• YoRHa units are expected to consult with Command before communicating with machine lifeforms.^[16]
• Command can directly authorize a Pod's use of weaponry in the absence of a YoRHa unit.^[17]
• The term "Command" is used by Zinnia in YoRHa Boys and The Memories of Puppets. The entity is suggested to be a superior of Zinnia, and it was this Command who decided that YoRHa units would only be named using their model number.^[18] It is unclear whether this Command is the same as the Bunker Command or an entirely separate entity.^{[Note 2]}
• According to a pamphlet from YoRHa Girls, the Bunker Command operates under the Army of Humanity and uses its emblem, at least at the time of the Experimental F Squadron.^{[verification needed]} This is supported by the fact the emblem can be seen at the Bunker's entrance to the Command room in NieR:Automata.
