-Afterburner watches how much of your Claude budget is left. When there's enough headroom, it
-picks one small, checkable coding task against a repo you've allowlisted and shows exactly
-what it would do.
+Afterburner is a budget-aware decision layer for coding agents. It watches your configured
+Claude headroom, chooses one bounded task from an allowlisted repo, and opens a review-first
+path toward a PR.
 
-The coding agent isn't the interesting part; that already exists. What Afterburner adds is
-the decision layer: working out when it's safe to spend, and what's worth spending on.
+It stays conservative by default: dry-run first, one task per ignition cycle, no telemetry,
+and live work only after a two-part opt-in.
 
 > Current status: the dry-run path works end to end. Live Claude Code/API execution and real
 > PR creation are still interface stubs in this version.

-| Checks both caps   | Uses weekly headroom and 5-hour session availability before doing work. |

+
+## Updating
+
+Afterburner checks npm at most once per day before interactive commands and prints an update
+nudge when a newer version is available. The notice goes to stderr, so JSON output from
+commands like `afterburner log --json` stays parseable. Machine-invoked commands such as
+`statusline` and `mcp` stay quiet; `update` skips the pre-check because it performs the
+update itself.
+
+```sh
+afterburner update                  # installs the latest release
+afterburner update --print          # only print the command
+afterburner update --registry=https://registry.npmjs.org/
+afterburner doctor --check-updates  # verify
+```
+
+For an npm install, `update` runs `npm install -g @pimmesz/afterburner@latest`. For a source
+checkout it rebuilds and reinstalls that checkout in place; it does not run git, so `git pull`
+first if you want new code.
+
+If a company npm proxy shadows public packages, point the install at the public registry with
+`afterburner update --registry https://registry.npmjs.org/`, or set it once globally:
+
+```sh
+npm config set @pimmesz:registry https://registry.npmjs.org/
