-
-## 🛠️ Development
-
-### Local Development
-
-Before pushing changes, run these checks locally:
-
+**Linux (x86_64)**  
 ```bash
-# Format code
-cargo fmt
-
-# Check formatting
-cargo fmt --check
-
-# Run lints  
-cargo clippy -- -D warnings
-
-# Run tests
-cargo test
-
-# Check compilation
-cargo check
+curl -L https://github.com/gitcoder89431/agentic/releases/download/v0.1.0/agentic-linux.tar.gz | tar xz
+sudo mv agentic /usr/local/bin/
 ```
 
-### 🔧 CI/CD Pipeline
+**Windows**
+```powershell
+# Download from releases page and add to PATH
+# https://github.com/gitcoder89431/agentic/releases/download/v0.1.0/agentic-windows.zip
+```
 
-Our GitHub Actions CI pipeline ensures code quality with multiple validation layers:
+### Build from Source
+```bash
+git clone https://github.com/gitcoder89431/agentic.git
+cd agentic
+cargo build --release
+./target/release/agentic-tui
+```
 
-#### Pipeline Jobs
+## Configuration
 
-1. **🏗️ Build & Test** (`build_and_test`)
-   - Code formatting validation (`cargo fmt --check`)
-   - Lint checking with zero warnings (`cargo clippy -- -D warnings`)
-   - Compilation verification (`cargo build --verbose`)
-   - Test suite execution (`cargo test --verbose`)
+⚠️ **Important**: Agentic requires **BOTH** a local AI model (for query orchestration) and a cloud model (for synthesis) to function. The local model privately refines your questions, then the cloud model creates the final insights.
 
-2. **🛡️ Security Audit** (`security_audit`)
-   - Vulnerability scanning with `cargo audit`
-   - Checks for known security issues in dependencies
+### Complete Setup Guide
 
-3. **📦 Dependency Check** (`check_dependencies`)
-   - Validates dependency freshness with `cargo outdated`
-   - Ensures we're using up-to-date packages
+Follow these steps in order - you need both components:
 
-#### Trigger Conditions
+#### Step 1: Local AI Setup (Required)
 
-- **Pushes to `main`**: Full pipeline execution
-- **Pull Requests**: All jobs run before merge approval
-- **Manual triggers**: Available via GitHub Actions UI
+1. **Install Ollama** (Free, runs on your computer)
+   ```bash
+   # macOS
+   brew install ollama
+   
+   # Or download from: https://ollama.ai
+   ```
 
-#### Performance Optimizations
+2. **Download a Local Model**
+   ```bash
+   # Start Ollama service
+   ollama serve
+   
+   # In another terminal, pull a model (this may take a few minutes)
+   ollama pull llama3.2:3b    # Good balance of speed/quality
+   # or
+   ollama pull qwen2.5:7b     # Higher quality, needs more RAM
+   ```
 
-- **Cargo Registry Cache**: Speeds up dependency downloads
-- **Target Directory Cache**: Accelerates compilation 
-- **Hash-Based Invalidation**: Efficient cache management with `Cargo.lock`
+3. **Configure in Agentic**
+   - In Settings, set "Local Endpoint" to `localhost:11434`
+   - Select your downloaded model from the list
+   - This handles initial query refinement privately on your machine
 
-#### Common Failure Scenarios & Fixes
+#### Step 2: Cloud Setup (Required)
 
-| Error | Cause | Fix |
-|-------|-------|-----|
-| `cargo fmt --check failed` | Inconsistent formatting | Run `cargo fmt` locally |
-| `cargo clippy warnings` | Lint violations | Fix warnings or use `#[allow(...)]` |
-| `tests failed` | Broken functionality | Fix failing tests |
-| `security vulnerabilities` | Outdated dependencies | Run `cargo audit fix` |
+1. **Get an OpenRouter Account**
+   - Visit [openrouter.ai](https://openrouter.ai) and sign up (takes 2 minutes)
+   - Generate an API key from your dashboard
+   - Add $5-10 credit OR use free models (see guide below)
 
-### 🏗️ Architecture
+2. **Configure in Agentic**
+   - Run `agentic` in your terminal
+   - Press `s` to open Settings
+   - Navigate to "Cloud API Key" and paste your OpenRouter key
+   - Browse available models and select one (see model selection guide below)
+   - Press `s` to save

+### 🎯 Model Selection Guide
 
-### 📁 Project Structure
+When choosing a cloud model in Agentic's settings, look for these indicators:
 
-```
-agentic/
-├── .github/workflows/    # CI/CD pipeline configuration
-├── src/
-│   ├── events.rs        # Event handling & state management
-│   ├── layout.rs        # Taffy flexbox layout engine
-│   ├── theme.rs         # Everforest theme system  
-│   ├── ui/              # User interface components
-│   │   ├── app.rs       # Main application logic
-│   │   └── mod.rs       # UI module declarations
-│   ├── lib.rs           # Library root
-│   └── main.rs          # Application entry point
-├── examples/            # Demo applications
-├── Cargo.toml          # Project dependencies
-└── README.md           # Project documentation
-```
+**💰 Cost Structure:**
+- Models with `:free` suffix = Completely free (perfect for learning)
+- Models with pricing = Pay per token (~$0.50-10 per 1M tokens)
+- Check the "pricing" column to see prompt/completion costs
 
-## 🧪 Testing
+**🧠 Model Types:**
+- Look for `:instruct` or `:chat` in the name = Good for conversations (what you want)
+- Avoid `:base` models = Raw models without instruction training
+- Avoid `:embed` models = For embeddings only, not chat
 
-### Unit Tests
+**📏 Context Length:**
+- 4k-8k tokens = Good for short conversations  
+- 32k-128k tokens = Better for longer discussions
+- 1M+ tokens = Can handle very long contexts (costs more)
 
-```bash
-# Run all tests
-cargo test
+**🏷️ Model Families:**
+- `anthropic/claude-*` = Excellent reasoning and safety
+- `openai/gpt-*` = Well-rounded performance
+- `meta-llama/*` = Open source, good quality
+- `google/gemini-*` = Strong at analysis and coding
+- `deepseek/*` = Often have free versions available
 
-# Run tests with output
-cargo test -- --nocapture
+**💡 Beginner Tips:**
+- Start with any `:free` model to test the system
+- If you have credits, try `anthropic/claude-3.5-sonnet` for quality
+- Higher context length = more expensive but can handle longer discussions
+- The model list updates frequently - newer models often perform better
 
-# Run specific test
-cargo test test_name
-```
+#### Step 3: Ready to Collaborate!
 
-### Manual Testing
+- Type your question naturally
+- Watch the local model orchestrate thoughtful proposals
+- Choose a proposal for the cloud model to synthesize
+- Save the resulting "atomic note" to your knowledge base
+- **Files are automatically saved** to `~/Documents/ruixen/` as Markdown with YAML metadata
 
-```bash
-# Theme demo
-cargo run --example theme_demo
+### Why Both Models?
 
-# Layout demo  
-cargo run --example layout_demo
+The **local model** (Ollama) handles query orchestration privately on your machine, while the **cloud model** (OpenRouter) provides powerful synthesis capabilities. This hybrid approach gives you both privacy and cutting-edge AI performance!
 
-# Input handling demo
-cargo run --example issue_4_demo
-```
+### Troubleshooting
 
-## 📦 Dependencies
+**"Local endpoint not accessible"**
+- Make sure Ollama is running: `ollama serve`
+- Check the endpoint in settings: `localhost:11434`
 
-### Core Dependencies
-- **ratatui** (0.27): Terminal UI framework
-- **crossterm** (0.27): Cross-platform terminal handling
-- **tokio** (1.0): Async runtime  
-- **taffy** (0.4): Flexbox layout engine
+**"OpenRouter API key invalid"**  
+- Verify your key starts with `sk-or-v1-`
+- Check you have credits or selected a free model
 
-### Development Dependencies
-- **GitHub Actions**: Automated CI/CD
-- **cargo-audit**: Security vulnerability scanning
-- **cargo-outdated**: Dependency freshness checks
+**"Model not found"**
+- For local: ensure model is downloaded with `ollama list`
+- For cloud: verify model name exactly matches OpenRouter's list
+
+## Usage
+
+**Navigation**
+- `Tab/Shift+Tab` - Navigate between UI elements
+- `↑/↓ or j/k` - Move through lists and proposals  
+- `Enter` - Select/Confirm actions
+- `Esc` - Return to previous screen
+- `q` - Quit application
+
+**Slash Commands**
+- `/settings` - Open configuration modal
+- `/about` - View application information  
+- `/quit` - Exit the application
+
+**Key Bindings**
+- `s` - Quick access to Settings
+- `a` - Quick access to About
+- `Left/Right` - Scroll through About page content

-4. **Commit** changes (`git commit -m 'Add amazing feature'`)
-5. **Push** to branch (`git push origin feature/amazing-feature`)
-6. **Open** a Pull Request
+Agentic follows the RuixenOS workspace architecture:
 
-### Pull Request Process
+```
+agentic/
+├── crates/
+│   ├── agentic-core/     # The "motor" - reusable AI logic
+│   ├── agentic-tui/      # The "drill" - terminal interface  
+│   └── starlit-gui/      # Future graphical interface
+└── Cargo.toml            # Workspace configuration
+```
 
-- ✅ All CI checks must pass (formatting, lints, tests, security)
-- ✅ Code must follow Rust best practices
-- ✅ Include tests for new functionality  
-- ✅ Update documentation as needed
+This modular design allows the same AI capabilities to power multiple interfaces while maintaining clean separation between logic and presentation.
