+MCP server for Vettly decision infrastructure. Enables AI assistants to make policy-governed, auditable content decisions.

+## Why MCP for Content Decisions?
+
+AI assistants are increasingly used in content creation and moderation workflows. With the Vettly MCP server:
+
+- **Governed decisions** - AI assistants check content against your explicit policies
+- **Audit trail** - Every decision made by AI is recorded with a decision ID
+- **Policy access** - Assistants can view and validate your policy configurations
+- **Usage visibility** - Check usage stats and recent decisions
 
 ## Installation

-npm install @vettly/mcp

+import { createVettlyMcpServer } from '@vettly/mcp'
+import { StdioServerTransport } from '@modelcontextprotocol/sdk/server/stdio.js'
 
 const server = createVettlyMcpServer({
   apiKey: process.env.VETTLY_API_KEY!,
-  apiUrl: 'https://api.vettly.dev', // optional
-});
+  apiUrl: 'https://api.vettly.dev'  // optional
+})
+
+// Connect to stdio transport (for Claude Desktop)
+const transport = new StdioServerTransport()
+await server.connect(transport)
 
-// Connect to your transport
-server.connect(transport);
+// Or use with other transports
+// server.connect(yourCustomTransport)
 ```
 
+---
+
+## Use Cases
+
+### Content Review Assistance
+
+```
+I'm reviewing user-submitted content for our platform. Can you check these
+submissions against our community-safe policy and tell me which ones
+need manual review?
+
+1. "Great product, highly recommend!"
+2. "This is garbage, you people are idiots"
+3. "Love the new features in this update"
+```
+
+### Policy Development
+
+```
+I want to create a new policy for our support chat. Can you help me
+write the YAML and then validate it?
+
+Requirements:
+- Block hate speech with threshold 0.6
+- Flag harassment for review at 0.7
+- Allow profanity up to 0.8
+```
+
+### Usage Monitoring
+
+```
+Can you check our moderation usage this week and let me know if we're
+on track for our monthly budget?
+```
+
+### Decision Audit
+
+```
+A user is appealing a content decision. Can you look up decision ID
+abc-123 and explain why their content was blocked?
+```
+
+---
+
+## Security
+
+- API keys are passed via environment variables, not in config files
+- The MCP server only has read access to policies (cannot create/modify)
+- Decision IDs can be used for audit trails but don't expose content
