+```
+
+## Data model
+
+**Job** — one YAML block:
+
+```
+program, path, description, active, excludes, label, source, target, cmd, sync_file,
+source_exists, target_exists, source_mtime, target_mtime, conflict
+```
+
+`Job#status` → one of `disabled / both_missing / missing_source / missing_target /
+target_newer / in_sync / source_newer`.
+
+**Program** — group of Jobs sharing a `program` name:
+
+```
+name, jobs
+```
+
+`Program#status` aggregates jobs (worst state wins). Selection in the picker
+operates on Programs, not individual Jobs.
+
+## Configuration
+
+`~/.config/twin/config.yaml`:
+
+```yaml
+sync_dir: /path/to/sync-files
+global_excludes: [".DS_Store", ".git/"]
+apex_theme: ralf
+apex_width: 80
+```
+
+Environment overrides: `TWIN_SYNC_DIR` (sync_dir), `TWIN_CONFIG` (config path).
+
+## Sync-files
+
+Markdown files. Frontmatter is the sync-relationship (source/target). YAML
+blocks define paths. grubber merges frontmatter into each block so every
+record is self-contained.
+
+Multiple blocks may share the same `Program` value — these are treated as
+one logical unit by twin.
+
+## Picker
+
+Two stages:
+
+1. **Stage 1 — program picker.** Multi-line NUL-separated entries (`--read0`).
+   Each entry has a header (icon, program name, job count, sync-file) and
+   indented body lines (one per job). No preview. Single-select. ESC exits.
+2. **Stage 2 — path multi-picker.** Tab-delimited rows (`id\tdisplay`),
+   `--with-nth=2` hides the `id`. Multi-select via Tab. Preview pane shows
+   the *compact* view (frontmatter + intro + the heading section containing
+   the YAML block for the highlighted path), rendered via
+   `apex --plugins -t terminal256`. ESC returns to Stage 1.
+
+Compact previews are pre-rendered to per-job tempfiles before fzf launches.
+An `awk` lookup maps `{1}` (the id) → tempfile path.
+
+## CLI
+
+File argument resolution (`twin <arg>` and `--file=<arg>`):
+
+- empty / missing       → scan `sync_dir`, no filter
+- bare name (no `/`)    → scan `sync_dir`, filter by substring match
+- path containing `/`   → expand, then:
+  - directory           → scan that directory, no filter
+  - file                → scan parent directory, filter by basename
+  - neither             → raise "not found: …"
+
+Unknown options (anything starting with `-` that isn't `--help`) print an
+error pointing at `twin --help` and exit 1.
+
+## Sync
+
+Before syncing:
+
+1. **Mount check** — every unique target root must be a mount point
+   (`File.stat.dev != parent.dev`). Aborts if unmounted.
+2. **Conflict warning** — emits stderr listing jobs where the target is
+   newer than the source. Continues anyway (`rsync --update` skips them).
+
+Then per Job:
+
+```
+rsync -av --update [--exclude=...]* src/ tgt/
+```
+
+If `Cmd` is set on the block and not in dry-run mode, the command is
+executed via `sh -c` after a successful rsync.
+
+## External dependencies
+
+| Tool      | Purpose                                    |
+|-----------|--------------------------------------------|
+| `grubber` | Markdown + YAML block extraction           |
+| `rsync`   | File transfer                              |
+| `fzf`     | Interactive selection                      |
+| `apex`    | Markdown preview rendering in the terminal |
+
+twin has no runtime gem dependencies — only stdlib (`yaml`, `json`,
+`optparse`, `open3`, `fileutils`).

+# twin
+
+Sync configuration folders between two Macs from self-documenting Markdown files.
+
+Sync entries are defined in Markdown files with YAML blocks — human-readable,
+self-documenting, and queryable via [grubber](https://github.com/rhsev/grubber).
+Selection is interactive via [fzf](https://github.com/junegunn/fzf), with a
+Markdown preview rendered by [apex](https://github.com/ttscoff/apex).
+
+## Why?
+
+Sync-definitions in Markdown + YAML are three things at once:
+
+- **Human-readable.** Plain Markdown, no twin-specific syntax to learn. The
+  Markdown frame documents *why* a path is synced, not just what, so you can
+  read your own sync-files in a year and still understand them.
+- **Machine-readable.** The YAML blocks are queryable via grubber, so any tool
+  (twin, but also future ones) can act on the same source of truth.
+- **AI-writable.** LLMs handle Markdown + YAML well. You can ask an assistant to
+  add new entries or refactor existing ones, and the result stays valid for both
+  humans and grubber.
+
+## Usage
+
+```bash
+twin                         # picker — all programs across all sync-files
+twin home_macbook.md         # picker — one sync-file in sync_dir (by name)
+twin /abs/path/to/file.md    # picker — any sync-file by absolute path
+twin ./relative/dir/         # picker — all sync-files in a directory
+twin list                    # plain listing
+twin status                  # listing with source/target mtimes
+twin sync -p grubber         # sync one program by name pattern
+twin sync --file=repos       # sync all programs from a sync-file
+twin sync --dry-run          # preview without writing
+twin --help                  # show usage
+```
+
+File argument resolution:
+
+- bare name (no `/`)  → looked up by substring in `sync_dir`
+- contains `/`        → resolved as path (absolute or relative); file or directory both work
+
+## Installation
+
+```bash
+gem build twin.gemspec
+gem install ./twin-*.gem
+```
+
+External tools required in PATH: `grubber`, `rsync`, `fzf`. For the
+stage-2 preview, one of `apex`, `glow`, or `bat` (falls back in that order;
+`cat` if none are present).
+
+## Configuration
+
+`~/.config/twin/config.yaml`:
+
+```yaml
+sync_dir: /path/to/sync-files
+
+global_excludes:
+  - .DS_Store
+  - .git/
+
+apex_theme: ralf       # optional
+apex_width: 80         # optional
+```
+
+Environment overrides: `TWIN_SYNC_DIR`, `TWIN_CONFIG`.
+
+## Sync-files
+
+Each Markdown file represents one sync relationship. Frontmatter defines the
+relationship; YAML blocks define individual paths.
+
+Example:
+
+````markdown
+---
+Active: 1
+Label: mac-mini→macbook
+Source: /Users/admin
+Target: /Volumes/macbook/Users/admin
+---
+
+## Fish Shell
+
+Configuration for the fish shell, including completions and abbreviations.
+
+```yaml
+Program: Fish Shell
+Path: .config/fish
+Description: Fish Shell configuration
+Exclude: conf.d/local.fish
+```
+````
+
+Frontmatter fields (`Active`, `Label`, `Source`, `Target`) are merged into
+every block by grubber. Multiple blocks can share the same `Program` — twin
+groups them and treats the program as the unit of selection.
+
+The optional `Cmd` field runs a shell command after a successful sync.
+
+## Design
+
+- **Selection unit:** Program. A program may have several blocks (paths); the
+  picker shows one row per program.
+- **Preview:** the whole sync-file rendered with `apex --plugins -t terminal256`.
+- **No TUI framework:** `fzf` does the interactive part, `apex` the rendering.
+  Composition over framework.
+
+See `ARCHITECTURE.md` for details.
+
+## Tests
+
+```bash
+rake test
+```
