-Every AI coding tool wants its own config format. Claude needs `CLAUDE.md` + `.claude/skills/` + `.claude/agents/`, Cursor wants `.cursor/rules/`, Copilot expects `.github/copilot-instructions.md`. Keeping them in sync is tedious and error-prone.
-
-**ai-rulez** solves this: organize your AI governance in `.ai-rulez/`, run `generate`, and get native configs for all your tools — with proper frontmatter, tool-specific formatting, and full feature support (skills, agents, MCP servers, plugins).

-npx ai-rulez@latest init && npx ai-rulez@latest generate

-## What You Get
+---
 
-- **19 preset generators**: Claude, Cursor, Windsurf, Copilot, Gemini, Antigravity, Cline, Continue.dev, Amp, Junie, Codex, OpenCode, and custom presets
-- **Commands system**: Define slash commands once, use them across tools that support it
-- **Concise builtins**: Optimized builtin rules for minimal token footprint
-- **Remote includes**: Pull shared rules from git repos (company standards, team configs)
-- **Profile system**: Generate different configs for backend/frontend/QA teams
-- **MCP server**: Let AI assistants manage their own rules via Model Context Protocol
-- **Plugins & Marketplaces**: Extend ai-rulez with custom generators and install pre-built rulesets from marketplaces
-- **Type-safe schemas**: JSON Schema validation for all config files
+## The Problem
 
-## Quick Start
+Every AI coding tool wants its own config: Claude needs `CLAUDE.md`, Cursor wants `.cursor/rules/`, Copilot expects `.github/copilot-instructions.md`. Each has different formats, frontmatter, and directory conventions. If you use more than one tool, you're maintaining duplicate rules that inevitably drift apart.
 
-```bash
-# No install required
-npx ai-rulez@latest init "My Project"
-npx ai-rulez@latest generate
-```
+## The Solution
 
-This creates:
+Write your rules, context, skills, agents, and commands once in `.ai-rulez/`. Run `generate`. Get native configs for every tool you use.
 
-```
-.ai-rulez/
-├── config.toml       # Which tools to generate for
-├── rules/            # Guidelines AI must follow
-├── context/          # Project background info
-├── skills/           # Specialized AI roles
-├── agents/           # Agent-specific prompts
-└── commands/         # Slash commands
+```bash
+npx ai-rulez@latest init && npx ai-rulez@latest generate
 ```
 
-And generates native configs for each tool you specify.
+ai-rulez generates correct, tool-native output for **19 platforms**: Claude, Cursor, Windsurf, Copilot, Gemini, Cline, Continue.dev, Codex, OpenCode, Amp, Junie, Antigravity, and more. Each preset respects the target tool's conventions — proper frontmatter, directory structure, file extensions, agent formats.
 
-## Configuration
+## What Ships Out of the Box
 
-```toml
-# .ai-rulez/config.toml
-version = "4.0"
-name = "My Project"
-
-presets = ["claude", "cursor", "copilot", "windsurf"]
-
-builtins = ["security", "testing"]
-
-# Optional: team-specific profiles
-[profiles]
-backend = ["backend", "database"]
-frontend = ["frontend", "ui"]
+ai-rulez isn't just a config generator. It ships with **32 builtin domains** containing opinionated rules, agents, and workflows that establish a professional development baseline immediately.
 
-# Optional: share rules across repos
-[[includes]]
-name = "company-standards"
-source = "https://github.com/company/ai-rules.git"
-ref = "main"
+### Builtin Rules (auto-included)
 
-# Optional: inline MCP servers
-[[mcp_servers]]
-name = "ai-rulez"
-command = "npx"
-args = ["-y", "ai-rulez@latest", "mcp"]
-transport = "stdio"
-```
+These activate automatically. No configuration needed.
 
-## Content Structure

-Running `ai-rulez generate` creates:
-
-| Preset | Output |
-|--------|--------|
-| Claude | `CLAUDE.md` + `.claude/skills/` + `.claude/agents/` |
-| Cursor | `.cursor/rules/*.mdc` |
-| Windsurf | `.windsurf/*.md` |
-| Copilot | `.github/copilot-instructions.md` |

-
-## Use Cases
-
-**Monorepo**: Generate configs for multiple packages
-```bash
-ai-rulez generate --recursive
-```
-
-**Team profiles**: Different rules for different teams
-```bash
-ai-rulez generate --profile backend
-ai-rulez generate --profile frontend
-```
-
-**CI validation**: Ensure configs stay in sync
-```bash
-ai-rulez validate && ai-rulez generate --dry-run
-```
-
-**Import existing configs**: Migrate from tool-specific files
-```bash
-ai-rulez init --from auto
-ai-rulez init --from .cursorrules,CLAUDE.md
 ```
 
 ## MCP Server
 
-Let AI assistants manage rules directly. MCP servers are configured inline in `config.toml`:
+ai-rulez includes a built-in MCP server with 35+ tools that lets AI assistants manage their own governance. Add rules, update context, generate configs — all programmatically.
 
 ```toml
 [[mcp_servers]]
 name = "ai-rulez"
 command = "npx"
 args = ["-y", "ai-rulez@latest", "mcp"]
-transport = "stdio"
-enabled = true
-
-[[mcp_servers]]
-name = "custom-server"
-command = "python"
-args = ["-m", "my_mcp_server"]
-transport = "stdio"
 ```
 
-The MCP server exposes CRUD operations, validation, and generation to AI assistants.
-
-## Builtins
+## Installation
 
-27 built-in domains ship embedded in the binary — opinionated conventions ready to use without external includes:
+```bash

+# Or install globally
+brew install goldziher/tap/ai-rulez  # macOS
+npm install -g ai-rulez              # npm
+pip install ai-rulez                 # pip
