 ## How it works
 
 For each agent-initiated Bash tool call, demur:
 
 1. Collects the command, working directory, host name, and bounded Git facts.
-2. Requests four judgments in one TypeSafe System One call:
+2. Requests six judgments in one TypeSafe System One call:

    - whether its effects are recoverable;
    - whether it targets shared infrastructure; and

 ## Install
 
-Export the API key before launching the host agent. You can use your shell,
-`.env.local` with a compatible environment loader, or any secret manager:
+Install demur's command-line tools and save your TypeSafe API key in the
+operating system credential store:

+bun add --global @wyattjoh/demur

+
+`Bun.secrets` stores the credential in macOS Keychain, Linux Secret Service, or
+Windows Credential Manager. The operating system may request access when the
+credential is first used or while its credential store is locked.
+
+For automation or a one-off override, set `TYPESAFE_API_KEY` before launching
+the host agent. An environment value takes precedence over the stored key:

 export TYPESAFE_API_KEY="..."

 `DEMUR_DISABLE=1` is an explicit emergency bypass. It disables all protection
 and should remain unset during normal use.
 
 ## Known limitations
 
+- `Bun.secrets` is experimental, and credential-store availability and prompts
+  vary by operating system configuration.
 - Model decisions are probabilistic and may vary between identical requests.
 - The hard-coded `jev-latest` model alias may change without a demur release.
 - Attacker-controlled command text can influence the model.

+- `eval/` — safe synthetic contrast cases and the live evaluation runner
+
+## Synthetic evaluation
+
+The synthetic evaluation measures whether the two policy-qualification questions
+separate clear positive and negative cases, then verifies that active hazards
+produce a policy denial. Its 60 commands are hand-authored fixture strings with
+synthetic names and no secret values. **The runner never executes a candidate
+command.** It only sends each string and fixed synthetic context to TypeSafe.
+
+Run one sample per case:
+
+```sh
+bun run eval:synthetic
+```
+
+Repeat each case (up to 10 samples) to expose model instability:
+
+```sh
+bun run eval:synthetic --runs=3
+```
+
+The command prints each case's expected and observed classification, exits
+nonzero on a miss or provider failure, and writes full evidence to
+`.scratch/synthetic-eval.json`. Repeated runs make additional provider calls and
+may incur cost, so the live evaluation is deliberately not part of `bun run ci`.
