 # Maeris Player
 
-Local Playwright-based runner for Maeris "Run in Browser".
+Local Playwright-based runner for Maeris **Run in Browser**.
+Start the runner once, then trigger runs from the Maeris web app.
+
+## Prerequisites
+- Node.js 18+
+- macOS / Windows / Linux
+- Access to the `@maeris` npm scope (this package may be private)
 
 ## Goals
 - Replay recorder steps through the Chrome extension in a local browser window.
@@ -13,31 +19,77 @@ Local Playwright-based runner for Maeris "Run in Browser".
 3. **Playwright adapter (`src/runner/playwrightAdapter.js`)** performs clicks, inputs, navigations, assertions; captures screenshots on failure.
 4. **Event contract (`src/runner/events.js`)** defines the message names (`STEP_STARTED`, `STEP_PASSED`, `STEP_FAILED`, `NAVIGATION`, `REPLAY_COMPLETE`, etc.).
 
-## Running locally
+## Quick start
 ```bash
-npm install
+npx @maeris/maeris-player
+```
 
-# listen for Run in Browser traffic from the web app (headed by default)
-npm start
+This starts the local runner on `ws://localhost:8090` (headed by default).  
+Keep it running, then click **Run in Browser** in the Maeris UI.
 
-# replay a recorded JSON file
-npm start -- --steps path/to/recorded.json --url https://demo-app/ --browser chromium
+If you prefer a global install:
+```bash
+npm i -g @maeris/maeris-player
+maeris-player
 ```
 
-## Usage via npm
+## How users run tests
+1. Start the runner:
+   ```bash
+   npx @maeris/maeris-player
+   ```
+2. Open the Maeris app and click **Run in Browser**.
+3. The runner opens a local browser window and executes the steps.
+
+## Production usage options
+### Option A — Extension proxy (recommended)
+Works from `https://` without TLS.  
+The Maeris extension connects to the local runner and proxies events.
+
+1. Install the Maeris Chrome extension.
+2. Start the runner:
+   ```bash
+   npx @maeris/maeris-player
+   ```
+3. Click **Run in Browser** in the Maeris app.
+
+### Option B — TLS direct (no extension)
+Connect directly from an `https://` web app using `wss://localhost`.
+
 ```bash
+npx @maeris/maeris-player setup-cert
+
+# macOS/Linux
+MAERIS_TLS_CERT="$HOME/.maeris-player/certs/localhost.cert.pem" \
+MAERIS_TLS_KEY="$HOME/.maeris-player/certs/localhost.key.pem" \
 npx @maeris/maeris-player
 ```
 
-This starts the local runner on `ws://localhost:8090`. Keep it running, then click **Run in Browser** in the Maeris UI.
-
-## HTTPS / WSS support (for prod without extension)
-If you want to connect from an `https://` web app directly to the runner, start it with TLS:
+Then trust the certificate as instructed by `setup-cert`.  
+The runner will listen on `wss://localhost:8090`.
 
+Tip: if you used the default cert location, you can also run:
 ```bash
-npx @maeris/maeris-player setup-cert
-MAERIS_TLS_CERT=/path/to/cert.pem MAERIS_TLS_KEY=/path/to/key.pem npx @maeris/maeris-player
+maeris-player --tls
 ```
 
-The runner will listen on `wss://localhost:8090`. You will need to trust the certificate in your OS/browser.
-# maeris-player
+## Troubleshooting
+- If the Maeris web app shows "Extension required" on an `https://` page:
+  - use the Maeris Player (TLS) option in the modal, or
+  - install the extension (Option A).
+- If runs don't start, confirm the runner is listening:
+  - `ws://localhost:8090` for non-TLS
+  - `wss://localhost:8090` for TLS
+- If publish fails with 2FA errors, see "Publishing" below.
+
+## Publishing
+This is published as a public scoped package (`@maeris/maeris-player`).
+
+If your npm org enforces 2FA, you will need either:
+- an OTP at publish time (`npm publish --otp=123456`), or
+- a granular access token with "bypass 2FA for publish" enabled.
+
+First publish (or if npm requires it for scoped packages):
+```bash
+npm publish --access public
+```
