-
-## What You'll Need
-
-This guide assumes you're starting with **just Windows** installed. We'll install everything else together, step by step.
-
----
-
-## Step 1: Install Python
-
-Python is needed to run AgentVibes.
-
-1. **Download Python**:
-   - Go to https://python.org/downloads
-   - Click the big yellow "Download Python" button
-
-2. **Install Python**:
-   - Run the downloaded installer
-   - ⚠️ **CRITICAL**: Check the box "Add Python to PATH" at the bottom
-   - Click "Install Now"
-   - Wait for installation to complete
-   - Click "Close"
-
-3. **Verify it worked**:
-   - Press `Windows Key + R`
-   - Type `cmd` and press Enter
-   - In the black window, type: `python --version`
-   - You should see something like `Python 3.12.0`
-
----
-
-## Step 2: Install Node.js
-
-Node.js is needed to download and run AgentVibes.
-
-1. **Download Node.js**:
-   - Go to https://nodejs.org
-   - Click the big green "LTS" button (recommended for most users)
-
-2. **Install Node.js**:
-   - Run the downloaded installer
-   - Click "Next" through all the steps (defaults are fine)
-   - Click "Install"
-   - Click "Finish"
-
-3. **Verify it worked**:
-   - Press `Windows Key + R`
-   - Type `cmd` and press Enter
-   - Type: `node --version`
-   - You should see something like `v20.11.0`
-
----
-
-## Step 3: Install WSL (Windows Subsystem for Linux)
-
-WSL is needed for the free Piper voice system.
-
-1. **Open PowerShell as Administrator**:
-   - Press `Windows Key`
-   - Type `PowerShell`
-   - Right-click "Windows PowerShell"
-   - Click "Run as administrator"
-   - Click "Yes" when asked
-
-2. **Install WSL**:
-   - Type this command and press Enter:
-     ```powershell
-     wsl --install
-     ```
-   - Wait for it to download and install (5-10 minutes)
-
-3. **Restart your computer**:
-   - After installation completes, restart Windows
-   - WSL will finish setup after restart
-
-4. **Verify it worked**:
-   - Open PowerShell again (doesn't need to be as administrator this time)
-   - Type: `wsl --status`
-   - You should see status information (not an error)
-
----
-
-## Step 4: Install Claude Desktop
-
-Claude Desktop is the app where you'll talk to Claude with voice.
-
-1. **Download Claude Desktop**:
-   - Go to https://claude.ai/download
-   - Click "Download for Windows"
-
-2. **Install Claude Desktop**:
-   - Run the downloaded installer
-   - Follow the installation steps
-   - Sign in with your Anthropic account (or create one)
-
-3. **Close Claude Desktop for now** (we'll configure it in the next step)
-
----
-
-## Step 5: Configure AgentVibes in Claude Desktop
-
-Now we'll tell Claude Desktop to use AgentVibes.
-
-1. **Open the config file**:
-   - Press `Windows Key + R`
-   - Copy and paste this path:
-     ```
-     %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json
-     ```
-   - Press Enter
-   - If asked "How do you want to open this file?", choose "Notepad"
-
-2. **Add AgentVibes configuration**:
-   - If the file is empty or just has `{}`, replace everything with this:
-     ```json
-     {
-       "mcpServers": {
-         "agentvibes": {
-           "command": "npx",
-           "args": ["-y", "agentvibes@beta", "agentvibes-mcp-server"]
-         }
-       }
-     }
-     ```
-   - If the file already has content, carefully add the `"agentvibes"` section inside `"mcpServers"`
-
-3. **Save the file**:
-   - Click "File" → "Save"
-   - Close Notepad
-
----
-
-## Step 6: Install Piper Voice System
-
-Piper needs to be installed inside WSL for the free voices to work.
-
-1. **Open PowerShell**
-
-2. **Run the automated installer**:
-   - Copy and paste this single command and press Enter:
-     ```powershell
-     wsl -e bash -c "curl -sSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/paulpreibisch/AgentVibes/master/.claude/hooks/piper-installer.sh | bash"
-     ```
-   - The installer will:
-     - Install pipx (if needed)
-     - Install Piper TTS
-     - Download a default voice (en_US-lessac-medium)
-   - Wait for installation (2-3 minutes)
-
-3. **When prompted** "Would you like to download voice models now?":
-   - Type `y` and press Enter
-   - This downloads the free voice model
-
-4. **Installation complete!**
-   - You should see "🎉 Piper TTS Setup Complete!"
-
----
-
-## Step 7: Start Using AgentVibes!
-
-1. **Open Claude Desktop**
-
-2. **Wait for setup** (first time only):
-   - The first time, AgentVibes MCP server needs to start (10-20 seconds)
-   - You'll see a small notification when it's ready
-
-3. **Test it**:
-   - Type: `What AgentVibes tools do you have?`
-   - Claude should list tools like `text_to_speech`, `list_voices`, etc.
-
-4. **Hear your first voice**:
-   - Type: `Use text to speech to say "Hello, I'm using AgentVibes!"`
-   - You should hear audio! 🎉
-
----
-
-## Common Tasks
-
-### Change Voice
-
-Type: `List all available voices`
-
-Then: `Switch to [voice name]`
-
-Example: `Switch to Northern Terry voice`
-
-### Add Personality

-Type: `Set personality to pirate`
-
-Now Claude will talk like a pirate! Try: `Use text to speech to say "Hello there!"`
-
-Other personalities: `sarcastic`, `flirty`, `robot`, `zen`, `millennial`
-
-### Speak Different Language
-
-Type: `Speak in Spanish`
-
-Now TTS will speak in Spanish! Try: `Use text to speech to say "Hello"`
-
-### Check Your Settings
-
-Type: `What's my current AgentVibes configuration?`
-
-Shows your current voice, personality, language, and provider.
-
