+## Get started
+
+### Run locally in five minutes
+
+Requirements: Node.js 24 or newer, Docker, and an OpenAI or Anthropic API key.
+You do not need to clone Wardby or install PostgreSQL.
+
+1. From the project where you want to use Wardby, run:
+
+   ```sh
+   npx --yes @wardby/cli@latest quickstart
+   ```
+
+2. Follow the prompts to choose a provider, start PostgreSQL, create a `$1`
+   demo agent, and optionally connect Codex or Claude Code through MCP.
+
+3. Verify the installation:
+
+   ```sh
+   npx --yes @wardby/cli@latest doctor
+   ```
+
+Quickstart keeps credentials and local state under `.wardby/` in the current
+project. Read the [local getting-started guide](https://github.com/wardby/wardby/blob/main/docs/getting-started.md)
+for unattended setup, lifecycle commands, MCP configuration, and cleanup.
+
+### Develop Wardby from source
+
+Clone the repository only when you want to contribute to Wardby, inspect its
+deployment assets, or build images yourself:
+
+```sh
+git clone https://github.com/wardby/wardby.git
+cd wardby
+npm ci
+npm run build
+npm test
+```
+
+Continue with [CONTRIBUTING.md](https://github.com/wardby/wardby/blob/main/CONTRIBUTING.md)
+for the development database, migrations, required checks, and contribution
+expectations.
+
+### Deploy for a team
+
+- Follow the [GKE guide](https://github.com/wardby/wardby/blob/main/docs/getting-started-gke.md)
+  for the supported Google Cloud reference deployment.
+- Start from the [portable production boundary](https://github.com/wardby/wardby/blob/main/deploy/production/README.md)
+  for another cloud, VM, or container platform.

 ## Why Wardby
 
 AI agents are easy to demo and harder to operate. Once an agent can spend
 money, use credentials, change a repository, or run without a person watching,
 teams need more than a prompt and a cron job.
 
+### One control plane instead of scattered automation
+
+Teams often begin with Claude Code or Codex on developer machines,
+repository-specific automation, and separate provider dashboards. As adoption
+grows, agent definitions, ownership, credentials, budgets, schedules, and run
+history become fragmented across tools and repositories.
+
+Wardby gives every Wardby-managed agent one durable operational identity: who
+owns it, why it exists, what it may access, when it runs, what it may spend,
+and what outcome it produced.
+
 Wardby provides the control plane around the model:
 
-| For engineering leaders                                                     | For developers                                                                             |

+| Keep approval and action authority explicit for consequential outcomes.      | Run optional coding tasks in isolated Codex or Claude Code workers that produce draft PRs. |
 
 The result is not another autonomous black box. It is a way to make agent work
 repeatable, bounded, inspectable, and reviewable.
 
-## Why Wardby instead of another agent runner?
+## Where Wardby fits
 
 Agent tools solve different layers of the problem. Wardby does not need to
 replace them: it provides the self-hosted operating boundary around agents and
 the work they perform.

+| **LLM gateways**            | Route model requests, manage keys, and enforce quotas.      | Budgets tied to named agents, owned runs, capabilities, schedules, and outcomes.           |
+| **Observability platforms** | Trace requests, evaluate quality, and explain cost.         | Admission and execution controls applied before work occurs, plus a durable agent catalog. |
+| **Vendor control planes**   | Govern agents inside one provider or cloud ecosystem.       | A self-hosted boundary spanning approved providers, builders, repositories, and clouds.    |
+| **Workflow orchestrators**  | Make application jobs durable, retryable, and observable.   | Agent-specific policy, model usage, capabilities, budgets, and MCP-native operations.      |
+
+The distinction is governed work, not just model calls or execution. Rather
+than assembling a gateway, scheduler, agent catalog, budget service,
+capability registry, and run database, Wardby provides one operating boundary.
+It reserves spend before a run starts, grants only assigned capabilities,
+records what happened, and keeps downstream action authority separate from the
+worker that produced the result.

-## One control plane, the full lifecycle
+Claude and Codex are the operator experience. Wardby is the durable operating
+boundary between intent and agent execution: it stores agent definitions,
+triggers work, reserves budget, mediates tools and credentials, records
+outcomes, and exposes run state through MCP. Nothing runs until identity,
+policy, and available budget agree.

+### Governed shared state for agent teams
+
+Named Wardby datastores let related agents exchange persistent structured data
+without sharing an unrestricted database credential. Datastores are owned and
+attached to agents explicitly; each sandboxed tool can reach only approved
+bound names and key prefixes.
+
+A planner can publish a feature plan, a builder can record implementation
+state, and a reviewer or QA agent can add findings to the same governed
+workspace. Datastores provide bounded coordination state, not a replacement
+for authoritative source systems or searchable agent memory.
 
-Claude and Codex are the operator experience. Wardby is the durable system
-behind them: it stores agent definitions, triggers work, reserves budget,
-mediates tools and credentials, records outcomes, and exposes run state through
-MCP.
+### Real services for real tests
+
+A coding run can have the services its tests need. The repository declares
+them on its base branch:
+
+```yaml
+services:
+  postgres: "16"
+```
+
+Every run then gets its own fresh database next to it, on the Kubernetes or
+Docker launcher, with `DATABASE_URL` set in the agent's shells. Images come from an
+admin-managed catalog pinned by digest, each agent is allowed only the services
+its owner lists, and the run's network policy does not change. See
+[coding services](https://github.com/wardby/wardby/blob/main/docs/coding-services.md).
