 **Works with both npm-installed Claude AND native Claude installs** (the new self-updating version at `~/.local/share/claude/versions`).
 
-## This Isn't Malware - Here's What It Actually Does
+## How It Works
 
-Some people see "binary wrapper" and freak out. Let's be real clear about what's happening here.
+Claude Code is a compiled binary that uses Ink (React for terminals). We wrap it in a PTY and:
 
-**claudefix doesn't modify, patch, replace, or tamper with the claude binary.** The original claude binary runs completely untouched. What we do is spawn it inside a pseudo-terminal (PTY) using `node-pty` and filter the terminal output stream before it hits your actual terminal. That's it.
-
-Think of it like piping `claude` through `sed` - the binary runs normally, we just clean up the ANSI escape codes it spits out before they reach your screen. The claude process doesn't know or care that it's running inside our PTY wrapper. It thinks it's talking to a normal terminal.
-
-Here's what the wrapper actually does to the output stream:
-
-1. **Strips background colors** - Removes ANSI background color codes (like `\x1b[48;5;XXm`) that cause VTE rendering glitches on Linux
-2. **Clears scrollback periodically** - Sends `\x1b[3J` every 500 renders or 60 seconds to prevent terminal lag
-3. **Debounces resize events** - Batches SIGWINCH signals instead of thrashing the terminal
-
-**You can verify this yourself:**
-- Read `bin/claude-fixed.js` - it's ~100 lines of straightforward PTY spawn + regex filtering
-- Set `CLAUDEFIX_DISABLED=1` to bypass the wrapper entirely
-- Run `claude` directly if you don't trust it - you'll just get the screen glitches back
-- It's MIT licensed, fully open source, nothing hidden
