 First, ensure you're in the correct project directory, then:
 
 ```bash
-agx claude --auto-task -p "$ARGUMENTS"
+agx claude --autonomous -p "$ARGUMENTS"
 ```
 
 This will:
 1. Create a mem task branch
-2. Set wake schedule (every 15m)
-3. Start the agent working
+2. Start the agx daemon (if not running)
+3. Begin working on the task
+4. Daemon wakes every 15m to continue until [done]
 
-After spawning, install the wake cron:
+Check status with:
 ```bash
-(crontab -l 2>/dev/null; mem cron export) | crontab -
+agx daemon status
+mem status
 ```
-
-Report the task name and confirm wake schedule is set.

+Use `agx` to run AI agents (Claude Code, Gemini, Ollama) with persistent memory integration. Spawn autonomous tasks that work in the background until complete.
 
 ## When to Use
 
-- **Spawning background agents** for long-running tasks
-- **Auto-task creation** with wake schedules
+- **Autonomous agents** for long-running tasks
+- **Background work** that continues without supervision
 - **Running different AI providers** with unified interface
-- **Autonomous work loops** that continue until done
+- **Persistent memory** across sessions
 
 ## Basic Usage

+## Autonomous Mode (Recommended)
 
-Create a task with automatic wake schedule:
+Start a task that runs autonomously until complete:
 
 ```bash
 cd ~/Projects/my-app
-agx claude --auto-task -p "Build a React todo app with auth"
+agx claude --autonomous -p "Build a React todo app with auth"
 # ✓ Created task: build-react-todo
 # ✓ Mapped: ~/Projects/my-app → task/build-react-todo
-# ✓ Wake: every 15m (until done)
+# ✓ Daemon started (pid 12345)
+# ✓ Autonomous mode: daemon will continue work every 15m
 ```
 
 This:
 1. Creates a mem task branch
-2. Sets wake schedule (every 15m)
-3. Installs cron to continue automatically
-4. Agent works until [done] or [blocked]
+2. Starts the agx daemon (if not running)
+3. Daemon wakes every 15m to continue work

-## Wake Loop
+## Daemon Management
 
-```
-WAKE (cron) → Load context → Agent works → Save state → SLEEP
-                                                    ↓

-```

-Install the wake schedule:
 ```bash
-mem cron export                          # View entry
-(crontab -l; mem cron export) | crontab - # Install
+agx daemon start    # Start background daemon
+agx daemon stop     # Stop daemon
+agx daemon status   # Check if running
+agx daemon logs     # Show recent logs
 ```
 
+The daemon:
+- Runs in background (survives terminal close)
+- Wakes every 15 minutes
+- Continues work on active tasks
+- Stops when task is [done] or [blocked]
