-# Evolith CLI
+# @evolith/smart-cli
 
-Command-line interface for Evolith governance, standards validation, and AI agent integration.
+Command-line interface for Evolith — governance, standards validation, architecture scaffolding, SDLC lifecycle management, and AI agent integration.
 
-## Features
+## Overview
 
-- **Governance**: ADR management, standards tracking, agent installation
-- **Validation**: Repository compliance against Evolith standards
-- **AI Integration**: MCP server for AI agent tool calling
-- **Observability**: Structured logging, metrics, error reporting
+SmartCLI is the primary entry point to the Evolith ecosystem. It connects three layers:
 
-## Installation
+```
+satellite repository
+       │
+       ▼
+  smart-cli  ──────── evolith.yaml (configuration)
+       │
+       ├── Evolith Core (rulesets, ADRs, standards, gate evidence)
+       │
+       └── MCP Server ──── AI Agents (Cursor, Claude Desktop, custom)
+```
+
+## Supported Architectures
+
+SmartCLI operates on three progressive architecture topologies. All commands that accept a `--topology` or `--phase` flag reference these levels:
+
+| Level | Name | Description |
+|-------|------|-------------|
+| F1 | Monolithic Modular | Single deployable with clean hexagonal layers |
+| F2 | Microfrontend | Module Federation with a host app and remote modules |
+| F3 | Distributed Microfrontend | Independent deployment of each remote with its own CI/CD |
 
-### npm (Recommended)
+Progression is linear: F1 → F2 → F3. The `upgrade` command manages topology transitions.
+
+## Installation
 
 ```bash
 npm install -g @evolith/smart-cli
 ```
 
-### Manual
+```bash
+pnpm add -g @evolith/smart-cli
+```
 
-Download the latest binary from [GitHub Releases](https://github.com/beyondnetcode/evolith_arch32/releases) and add to your PATH.
+```bash
+yarn global add @evolith/smart-cli
+```
 
-### Verify Installation
+Or download the binary from [GitHub Releases](https://github.com/beyondnetcode/evolith_arch32/releases) and add it to your PATH.
+
+### Verify
 
 ```bash
 smart-cli --version
-# smart-cli version 0.0.1-beta
+# smart-cli version 1.1.0
 ```
 
-## Quickstart
+### Troubleshooting
 
-### 1. Initialize a Repository
+**EACCES on macOS/Linux:**
+```bash
+sudo npm install -g @evolith/smart-cli --unsafe-perm
+```
 
+**nvm — binary not found after install:**
 ```bash
-cd your-project
+export PATH=$(npm config get prefix)/bin:$PATH
+```
+
+## Quickstart
+
+```bash
+# 1. Seed a demo project to explore the CLI
+smart-cli fixtures --type demo
+
+# 2. Initialize a real repository
 smart-cli init
+
+# 3. Scaffold base documentation
+smart-cli docs
+
+# 4. Validate compliance
+smart-cli validate
+
+# 5. Scaffold architecture (F1)
+smart-cli scaffold --phase 1
+
+# 6. Connect an AI agent
+smart-cli mcp serve
 ```
 
-This creates an `evolith.yaml` file with default configuration.
+---
+
+## Commands
+
+### init
 
-### 2. Run First Validation
+Initializes a satellite repository with interactive tool selection. Creates `evolith.yaml` and the project structure.
 
 ```bash
-smart-cli validate
+smart-cli init [options]
+
+Options:
+  -d, --dry-run          Run without writing files
+  -c, --config <path>    Path to evolith.setup.json for batch mode
+  -r, --runtime <id>     Runtime: nodejs, dotnet, python
+  -m, --monorepo <id>    Monorepo strategy: none, nx, npm-workspaces, rush
+  -a, --arch <id>        Architecture pattern: clean, hexagonal, ddd
+      --db <id>          Database: postgresql, mongodb, sqlserver
 ```
 
-Output:
+**Examples:**
+
+```bash
+# Interactive wizard
+smart-cli init
+
+# Batch mode (non-interactive)
+smart-cli init --config evolith.setup.json
+
+# Preview without writing
+smart-cli init --dry-run
 ```
-✓ Validating repository...
-✓ Repository is compliant with Evolith standards
+
+After `init` completes, the CLI prints suggested next steps including `validate`, `agents --install`, and `sdlc handoff`.
+
+---
+
+### docs
+
+Scaffolds the base documentation files required by Evolith in the current directory.
+
+Files created by default:
+- `README.md` — project overview template
+- `AGENTS.md` — AI agent configuration and rules
+- `MASTER_INDEX.md` — documentation index
+- `.evolith/evolith.yaml` — Evolith configuration
+
+```bash
+smart-cli docs [options]
+
+Options:
+  -d, --dry-run          Preview files without writing

+  -t, --template <type>  Template type: default (all 4 files), minimal (README + AGENTS only)
+      --format <format>  Output format: json (ADR-0073 envelope) or human (default)
 ```
 
-### 3. Install an Agent
+**Examples:**
 
 ```bash
-smart-cli agents install
-# Select "standard" template when prompted
+# Scaffold all documentation
+smart-cli docs
+
+# Preview what would be created
+smart-cli docs --dry-run
+
+# Minimal scaffold
+smart-cli docs --template minimal
+
+# Force overwrite and emit JSON envelope
+smart-cli docs --force --format json
 ```

+
+### sdlc
+
+Parent command that orchestrates SDLC artifacts and lifecycle transitions. Run without a subcommand to see available subcommands.

+Subcommands:
+  handoff       Transition artifacts between phases with interactive guided flow
+  generate      Generate Hexagonal Architecture scaffold from a DDD model file
+  gate-status   Display phase gate validation status and DORA metrics
+```
+
+#### sdlc handoff

+Guides an interactive phase transition, validates gates, and generates evidence artifacts.
+
+```bash
+smart-cli sdlc handoff [options]
+
+Options:
+  -f, --from <phase>   Source phase (phase-0, phase-1, etc.)
+  -t, --to <phase>     Target phase (phase-0, phase-1, etc.)

+      --force          Force handoff even if gates fail
+```
+
+**Examples:**
+
+```bash
+# Interactive handoff wizard
+smart-cli sdlc handoff
+
+# Handoff from phase-0 to phase-1 with gate validation
+smart-cli sdlc handoff --from phase-0 --to phase-1 --validate
+
+# Generate artifacts and force even if gates fail
+smart-cli sdlc handoff --from phase-1 --to phase-2 --artifacts --force
+```
+
+#### sdlc generate
+
+Generates a complete Hexagonal Architecture scaffold by reading a Mermaid `classDiagram` from a Markdown DDD model file.
+
+```bash
+smart-cli sdlc generate [options]
+
+Options:
+  -f, --from <path>   Path to the Markdown file containing the Mermaid classDiagram

+
+# Output to a specific directory
+smart-cli sdlc generate --from docs/domain-model.md --output src/domain

+
+The input file must contain a fenced Mermaid block with a `classDiagram`. The generator creates entities, value objects, repositories, use cases, and ports following hexagonal architecture conventions.
+
+#### sdlc gate-status

+
+```bash
+smart-cli sdlc gate-status [options]

+- **Lead Time for Changes** — time from commit to production
+- **Change Failure Rate** — percentage of deployments causing failures
+- **Time to Restore** — time to recover from a production failure
+
+**Examples:**
+
+```bash

-The Evolith CLI includes an MCP server for AI agent integration.
+## MCP Server
 
-### Starting the MCP Server
+The Evolith CLI includes a production-ready MCP server for AI agent integration.
+
+### Starting the Server
 
 ```bash
+# stdio transport (default — for Cursor, Claude Desktop)
 smart-cli mcp serve
+
+# HTTP transport (for remote or containerized deployments)
+smart-cli mcp serve --transport http --port 3000
+
+# HTTP with API key authentication
+smart-cli mcp serve --transport http --port 3000 --api-key <secret>
 ```
 
-The server communicates via stdio JSON-RPC.
+```bash
+smart-cli mcp serve [options]
+
+Options:
+  -t, --transport <type>   Transport: stdio (default) or http
+  -p, --port <number>      HTTP server port (default: 3000)
+      --api-key <key>      API key for HTTP transport authentication
+      --no-confirm         Skip confirmation prompts
+```
+
+### Smoke Test
+
+```bash
+npm run mcp:smoke
+```
+
+Verifies `initialize`, `tools/list`, `resources/list`, `prompts/list`, and a real `tools/call` end-to-end through the built CLI.

-If `evolith` is not found after installation, ensure npm's global bin is in your PATH:
+## Troubleshooting
 
+**Command not found after install:**
 ```bash
-# Add to ~/.bashrc or ~/.zshrc
 export PATH="$(npm config get prefix)/bin:$PATH"
 ```
 
-### MCP server not responding
-
-Ensure the MCP server is running:
-
+**Validation fails with no evolith.yaml:**
 ```bash
-smart-cli mcp serve &
+smart-cli docs         # scaffold evolith.yaml and base docs
+smart-cli validate

-### Validation fails
-
-Check your `evolith.yaml` exists and is valid:
-
+**MCP server not responding:**
 ```bash
-cat evolith.yaml
-smart-cli validate --verbose
+smart-cli mcp serve --no-confirm
 ```
 
+**Unknown topology in scaffold or drift:**
