+# @ijfw/install — One-command installer for IJFW
 
-One-command installer for [IJFW](https://gitlab.com/therealseandonahoe/ijfw) -- the AI
-efficiency layer for 15 AI coding agents: Claude Code, Codex, Gemini, Cursor, Windsurf, Copilot, Hermes, Wayland, OpenCode, Qwen Code, Cline, Kimi Code, OpenClaw, Antigravity, and Aider.
+> Ferrox Labs · Local-first infrastructure for AI coding agents
+
+IJFW is Ferrox Labs' shared development infrastructure for AI-driven teams — shared memory across projects, smart model routing, cross-AI adversarial audits (Trident: Claude + Codex + Gemini in parallel), and a disciplined think-build-ship workflow. v1.5.5 closed 60 audit findings in a single milestone. This package wires it onto every AI coding agent on your machine.

 ## Install
 
 ```bash
 npm install -g @ijfw/install
-ijfw demo
+ijfw install
 ```
 
-IJFW configures every agent on your machine. The options below let you customize the install location, branch, or skip specific steps -- all are optional.
+If no AI agents are detected, install Claude Code or Codex first, then re-run.
+
+## What it does
 
-### Options
+- Installs the IJFW source tree at `~/.ijfw/`
+- Wires the MCP server into 14 platforms via their config files
+- Adds Aider as a rules-only tier — 15 agents supported total
+- Sets up shared memory at `~/.ijfw/memory/` (plain markdown hot, SQLite FTS5 warm, optional vectors cold)
+- Runs an 8-gate preflight before declaring done
+
+## Options
 
 | Flag | Default | Notes |
 |------|---------|-------|
 | `--dir <path>` | `$IJFW_HOME` or `~/.ijfw` | Install location |
 | `--branch <name>` | latest released tag | Git branch or tag |
-| `--no-marketplace` | off | Skip settings.json edits |
-| `--yes` | off | Non-interactive |
+| `--no-marketplace` | enabled | Skip settings.json edits |
+| `--yes` | interactive | Non-interactive run |
 
-### Uninstall
+## Uninstall
 
 ```bash
 ijfw uninstall          # preserves ~/.ijfw/memory/
 ijfw uninstall --purge  # removes memory too
 ```
 
-If `ijfw` isn't on your PATH (e.g. you uninstalled the global `@ijfw/install`
-package already), invoke the bin directly:
+If `ijfw` is no longer on your PATH, invoke the bin directly:
 
 ```bash
 npx -p @ijfw/install ijfw-uninstall
 ```
 
-Memory is preserved across re-runs by default.
-
-## Preflight
-
-Requires `node >=18` and `git` (used for the initial repo clone). The
-installer is Node-native end to end -- no bash, no WSL, no Git for Windows
-shell. On native Windows use the PowerShell installer (PS 5.1+), which
-delegates to Node directly:
-
-```powershell
-iwr https://gitlab.com/therealseandonahoe/ijfw/-/raw/main/installer/src/install.ps1 -OutFile install.ps1
-.\install.ps1 -Dir $env:USERPROFILE\.ijfw
-```
-
-## Extension CLI
-
-IJFW ships a full extension system for installing and sandboxing third-party skills.
-
-```bash
-# Publisher key management
-ijfw extension keygen <author>              # Generate an Ed25519 publisher keypair
-ijfw extension trust <keyId> <publicKey>   # Add a publisher to your trusted store
-ijfw extension trust-registry [<url>]      # Pull + apply the hosted publisher registry
-ijfw extension untrust <keyId>             # Remove a publisher from your trusted store
-ijfw extension trusted                     # List all trusted publishers
-
-# Extension lifecycle
-ijfw extension add <source> [flags]        # Install an extension (npm name, local path, or https git URL)
-  --allow-unsigned                         #   Accept extensions with no signature
-  --accept-untrusted                       #   Accept extensions signed by an untrusted publisher (prompts on TTY)
-  --activate                               #   Auto-activate after install
-ijfw extension activate <name>             # Activate an installed extension (enforces declared permissions)
-ijfw extension deactivate                  # Deactivate the current extension
-
-# Admin / registry maintainer (rare)
-ijfw extension rotate-keys <oldKeyId> <newKeyId>   # Produce a signed rotation token
-ijfw extension keygen-meta <author>                # Generate the registry meta-keypair
-ijfw extension sign-registry <path>                # Sign a registry JSON file in place
-ijfw extension verify-registry <path>              # Verify a registry JSON signature
-ijfw extension registry-status                     # Show registry cache age + signature status
-```
-
-The rotation flow and registry maintainer docs live in `docs/REGISTRY-MAINTAINER.md`.
-
-## Build (contributors)
-
-```bash
-cd installer
-npm install
-npm run build   # outputs dist/install.js + dist/uninstall.js
-npm test
-npm run pack:check
-```
