-Artshelf is a tiny CLI for putting temporary artifacts, backups, and run outputs
-somewhere accountable, with an expiry tag and a cleanup plan.
+# 🗃️ Artshelf
 
-It is built for agent-heavy workflows where files and directories are often
-created in `tmp/`, repo folders, or backup locations and then forgotten. Artshelf
-records why an artifact exists at creation time, then makes later cleanup
-visible and reviewable.
+**Accountable retention for the temporary files agents leave behind.**
 
-Artshelf centers on four approval-first workflows: **register a temp artifact** the
-moment it is created, **review everything safely** before anything moves,
-**approve cleanup safely** from a reviewed plan, and **purge old trash
-explicitly** from a separate reviewed plan. The reference sections further down
-stay out of the way until you need them.

-Install the npm package:
+Artshelf makes that mess accountable. Every artifact is logged with a reason, an
+expiry, and a cleanup plan the moment it's created. Later you review the ledger,
+preview a cleanup, and execute only an approved plan — approval-first, trash
+before delete, `--json` everywhere. No daemon, no surprise deletions, no guessing
+from a filesystem scan.

+update-cache writes.
 
-## Core Workflows
+### Recommended agent setup
 
-Artshelf is built around four approval-first workflows. Start here; the reference
-sections below are there when you need them, not before.
+Artshelf is agent-operated, so let your agent finish the job. Paste this one line
+into your coding agent:
 
-### 1. Register a temp artifact
-
-Record an artifact the moment it is created, while the reason is still fresh:
-
-```bash
-artshelf put tmp/run-output --reason "debug parser output" --ttl 3d --kind scratch --cleanup trash
+```text
+Follow the instructions in https://github.com/calvinnwq/artshelf/blob/main/INSTALL.md to set up Artshelf in this workspace.
 ```
 
-Artshelf returns an id. Capture it anywhere future cleanup context matters.
+It will install the CLI, copy the portable skill (with its bundled review-report
+renderer), register any existing project ledgers, and — only with your approval —
+schedule a **read-only** daily review. Scheduled jobs review and report only;
+cleanup and purge execution always come back to you. See [INSTALL.md](INSTALL.md)
+for the full steps.
 
-### 2. Review everything safely
+## How it works
 
-Inspect the ledger and preview cleanup without moving anything:
+The whole lifecycle is five steps, and every step that touches files is gated on
+a reviewed plan a human approved:
 
-```bash
-artshelf list
-artshelf status
-artshelf due
-artshelf cleanup --dry-run
-```
-
-Because this example keeps the artifact for three days, an immediate dry-run
-reports `not-created` and writes no plan. A dry-run returns a real plan id only
-after `due` shows cleanup entries.
-
-### 3. Approve cleanup safely
-
-Execute only from a reviewed plan id, and only after a human approves it:
-
-```bash
-artshelf cleanup --execute --plan-id plan_20260601_120000_ab12
-```
-
-There is no auto-execute, no global execute, and no fresh-plan-then-execute
-shortcut. Execution writes a receipt and updates the touched ledger records.
+| Step | What happens | Command |
+|------|--------------|---------|
+| **1. Register** | Record an artifact the moment it is created, while the reason is fresh. Returns an id. | `artshelf put <path> --reason "…" --ttl 3d --kind scratch --cleanup trash` |
+| **2. Monitor** | Read-only checks across all known ledgers — moves nothing. | `artshelf status --all --json` · `artshelf due --all` |
+| **3. Review** | Preview a cleanup plan. A real plan id appears only once entries are due. | `artshelf review --all` · `artshelf cleanup --dry-run` |
+| **4. Clean** | Execute exactly the reviewed plan id, after approval. Trashes, never deletes. | `artshelf cleanup --execute --plan-id <id>` |
+| **5. Purge** | Permanently remove old trashed artifacts via a *separate* reviewed plan. | `artshelf trash purge --older-than 30d --dry-run` → `--execute --plan-id <id>` |
 
-### 4. Purge old trash explicitly
+Trash is the holding area between steps 4 and 5: cleanup quarantines artifacts
+into Artshelf's local trash (`artshelf trash list`), and only a separately
+reviewed purge removes them for good — a second approval boundary before
+destructive deletion.
 
-Cleanup execution with `cleanup=trash` moves artifacts into Artshelf's local trash
-folder. Those trashed records remain discoverable (`artshelf trash list`) for review
-and should only be physically removed through a separately reviewed trash purge
-plan:
+## Safety model
 
-```bash
-artshelf trash purge --older-than 30d --dry-run --json
-artshelf trash purge --execute --plan-id purge_20260601_120000_ab12
-```
+- **Ledger-first**, not filesystem-scan-first — every artifact is a recorded decision.
+- **Dry-run before mutation**, and execute only from a reviewed plan id.
+- **No daemon, no auto-execute, no global execute** — `--all` is read-only or
+  dry-run reporting; cleanup and purge refuse it.
+- **No fresh-plan-then-execute shortcut** — review the plan, then run that plan.
+- **Trash before delete** — `cleanup=delete` stays refused; physical deletion
+  needs its own reviewed trash purge. No silent deletion, ever.
+- **`--json` on every command**, so agents can act on structured output.
 
-This adds a separate approval boundary between quarantine and destructive deletion.
+## Reference
 
-## Explicit Ledgers
-
-By default, Artshelf writes repo-local `.artshelf/ledger.jsonl` inside a git repo and
-`~/.artshelf/ledger.jsonl` outside one. Use `--ledger <path>` and an isolated
-`--registry <path>` for tests, demos, and unusual workflows:
-
-```bash
-artshelf put /tmp/parser-output --reason "parser fixture" --ttl 1d --ledger /tmp/artshelf-ledger.jsonl --registry /tmp/artshelf-registry.json --json
-artshelf list --ledger /tmp/artshelf-ledger.jsonl
-```
-
-Artshelf also keeps a small global registry of known ledgers at
-`~/.artshelf/ledgers.json`. Override it with `--registry <path>` or
-`ARTSHELF_REGISTRY`; renamed installs still honor legacy `SHELF_REGISTRY` when
-`ARTSHELF_REGISTRY` is unset. `put` registers its ledger automatically, and you
-can register an existing ledger explicitly:
-
-```bash
-artshelf ledgers list
-artshelf ledgers add --ledger /path/to/repo/.artshelf/ledger.jsonl --name my-repo
-```
-
-Renamed installs before `0.5.0` used `.shelf` storage paths. Migrate by copying
-each ledger directory to `.artshelf`, rewriting registry paths to the copied
-ledgers, validating with `artshelf ledgers list --json`, and keeping the old
-`.shelf` directories until rollback is no longer needed.
-
-`artshelf ledgers list` validates each registered ledger by default — reporting
-ok/missing/invalid status with entry counts, and exiting non-zero when the
-registry or any ledger is broken — so it doubles as a stale-entry check. Add
-`--plain` for the fast listing that skips validation.
-
-Use `--all` for one read-only discovery entry point across registered ledgers:
-
-```bash
-artshelf review --all --json
-artshelf status --all --json
-artshelf due --all --json
-artshelf trash list --all --json
-artshelf find --all --owner <agent-or-runtime> --json
-```
-
-`artshelf review --all` adds an aggregate triage summary (affected ledgers, due,
-manual-review, missing-path, executable, and skipped counts plus preview plan
-ids) and states the next safe action, while staying read-only.
-
-Use global dry-run cleanup when you want Artshelf to write cleanup plans for
-registered ledgers with cleanup entries, without moving files:
-
-```bash
-artshelf cleanup --dry-run --all --json
-```
-
-Global execution is intentionally refused. To mutate files, review a dry-run
-plan, then execute it against the specific ledger that produced it.
-Repeated dry-runs with the same executable cleanup entries reuse the existing
-plan id and refresh its timestamp instead of creating duplicate plan files.
-
-## Safety Model
-
-- Ledger-first, not filesystem-scan-first.
-- Dry-run before mutation.
-- Execute only from a reviewed plan id.
-- No daemon or auto-execute path.
-- No global execute; cleanup execute and trash purge refuse `--all`.
-  `--all` is read-only or dry-run reporting only.
-- No fresh-plan-then-execute shortcut.
-- Trash/review by default, not delete.
-- No silent deletion; `cleanup=delete` stays refused, and trash purge needs its own reviewed plan.
-- Agent-friendly JSON output from every command.
-- Small enough to actually use.
-
-V1 only moves `cleanup=trash` entries into Artshelf's local trash folder. Entries
-marked `cleanup=review` become `review-required`, and `cleanup=delete` is
-refused as `cleanup-refused`; physical deletion only happens through a separate
-reviewed `artshelf trash purge --execute` plan.
-
-Dry-run cleanup writes a plan only when there are executable cleanup entries.
-No-op dry-runs report `not-created` and avoid writing plan files. When Artshelf does
-write a plan, it also records that plan in the ledger as an Artshelf-owned artifact.
-
-After `cleanup --execute`, Artshelf writes a receipt, records the receipt as a
-Artshelf-owned artifact, and updates touched ledger records. Handled records stop
-appearing in `due` and future dry-run cleanup plans, while `artshelf list` still
-keeps the audit trail visible.
