-A prompty js runtime.
+# @prompty/core
+
+Prompty core runtime — load, render, parse, and trace `.prompty` files in TypeScript/JavaScript.
+
+## Installation
+
+```bash
+npm install @prompty/core
+```
+
+You'll also need a **provider package** for your LLM:
+
+```bash
+# OpenAI
+npm install @prompty/openai
+
+# Azure AI Foundry
+npm install @prompty/foundry
+
+# Anthropic
+npm install @prompty/anthropic
+```
+
+## Quick Start
+
+```typescript
+import "@prompty/openai"; // registers the OpenAI provider
+import { load, run } from "@prompty/core";
+
+// Load and run a .prompty file
+const result = await run("./my-prompt.prompty", {
+  question: "What is the capital of France?",
+});
+console.log(result);
+```
+
+## Step-by-Step Usage
+
+```typescript
+import "@prompty/openai";
+import { load, prepare, execute, process } from "@prompty/core";
+
+// 1. Load — parse .prompty file into a typed Prompty object
+const agent = await load("./chat.prompty");
+
+// 2. Prepare — render template + parse into messages
+const messages = await prepare(agent, { name: "Alice" });
+
+// 3. Execute — call the LLM
+const response = await execute(agent, messages);
+
+// 4. Process — extract the result
+const result = await process(agent, response);
+```
+
+## What's a `.prompty` file?
+
+A Markdown file with YAML frontmatter that defines an LLM prompt:
+
+```prompty
+---
+name: greeting
+model:
+  id: gpt-4o-mini
+  provider: openai
+  connection:
+    kind: key
+    endpoint: ${env:OPENAI_BASE_URL}
+    apiKey: ${env:OPENAI_API_KEY}
+---
+system:
+You are a helpful assistant.
+
+user:
+Hello, my name is {{name}}. {{question}}
+```
+
+## Tracing
+
+```typescript
+import { Tracer, PromptyTracer } from "@prompty/core";
+
+// Write .tracy JSON files to .runs/
+const tracer = new PromptyTracer({ outputDir: ".runs" });
+Tracer.add("prompty", tracer.factory);
+
+const result = await run("./chat.prompty", { question: "Hi" });
+console.log("Trace:", tracer.lastTracePath);
+```
