 # llm-summarize
 
-Fast LLM-powered text summarization for observability and logging.
+Structured session insight extraction for knowledge systems.
 
 ## Philosophy
 
 - **Config-driven** - No hardcoded defaults, specify exact provider/model
 - **Prismis pattern** - Secrets in .env, references in config.toml via `env:VAR_NAME`
-- **Fast and cheap** - Designed for high-volume summarization (haiku/gpt-4.1-mini)
+- **Knowledge-focused** - Extracts decisions, patterns, preferences, not just summaries
 - **Composable** - JSON output pipes to jq and other tools
