 **Time tracking for AI agents. Toggl for the agentic era.**
 
-Clawck is an open-source tool that tracks how long AI agents spend on tasks, projects, and client work — then shows you how much human-equivalent time and money they saved.
+Clawck is an open-source tool that tracks how long AI agents spend on tasks, projects, and client work - then shows you how much human-equivalent time and money they saved.
 
 Every service business runs on timesheets. AI agent businesses will too.

-## Why Clawck?
-
-AI agents are doing real work — writing code, researching grants, generating content, analyzing data. But nobody's tracking *how long* that work takes or *how much value* it delivers.
-
-Clawck answers the questions your clients, managers, and finance teams are already asking:
-
-- **"What did the AI actually do today?"** → A clear timesheet showing every task, duration, and outcome
-- **"Is this worth what we're paying?"** → Human-equivalent hours and cost savings calculated automatically  
-- **"Which agent is the most productive?"** → Per-agent breakdowns across projects and clients

-## How It Works
+## Features
+
+- **Time tracking** - Start/stop timers or log completed tasks retroactively
+- **Human-equivalent calculations** - Configurable multipliers estimate how long a human would take
+- **Tracking patterns** - Reusable task templates (code-review, research, testing, etc.)
+- **Approval workflow** - Mark entries as approved for billing/invoicing
+- **Reports** - Terminal, PDF, and interactive HTML reports with calendar, table, Gantt, and CSV views
+- **Dashboard** - Real-time web dashboard with stats, entries, and breakdowns
+- **MCP server** - Works with Claude Code, Cline, Cursor, Windsurf via stdio
+- **REST API** - Full CRUD API for any agent framework
+- **Multi-agent sync** - Pull from remote instances or push via ingest endpoint
+- **Webhooks** - Notify on task completion, failure, or idle alerts
+- **Platform hooks** - Auto-track via Claude Code hooks, Gemini, Cursor, etc.

+## Tracking Patterns
 
-## Multi-Agent Aggregation
+Patterns are reusable templates for common task types. They set default values for category, project, client, agent, and tags.
 
-Running 10 agents across multiple machines? Clawck merges them:
+**Built-in patterns:** `default`, `code-review`, `research`, `content-creation`, `testing`
 
-**Option A: Central collector pulls from remote instances**
+```bash
+# List available patterns
+clawck pattern list
 
-```yaml
-# .clawck/config.json
-{
-  "remote_sources": [
-    { "name": "research-agent", "url": "http://cubi-01:3456/api/entries" },
-    { "name": "writer-agent", "url": "http://cubi-02:3456/api/entries" },
-    { "name": "coder-agent", "url": "http://cubi-03:3456/api/entries" }
-  ],
-  "sync_interval": 60
-}
+# Use a pattern when starting a task
+clawck start "Review auth module" --pattern code-review
+
+# Add a custom pattern
+clawck pattern add --name deploy --category code --project ops --tags deploy release
+
+# Set a default pattern
+clawck pattern use research
 ```
 
-**Option B: Agents push to a central instance**
+Patterns merge as defaults - any explicit flags you pass override the pattern's values.
+
+## Approval Workflow
+
+Entries can be approved for billing, invoicing, or quality control.
 
 ```bash
-# From any agent, POST entries to central Clawck
-curl -X POST http://central-clawck:3456/api/ingest \
-  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-  -d '[{"task": "...", "agent": "cubi-01", ...}]'
+# Approve an entry (supports 8-char ID prefix)
+clawck approve a1b2c3d4
+
+# View only approved entries
+clawck entries --approved
+
+# View unapproved entries
+clawck entries --unapproved
+
+# Filter in list view too
+clawck list --approved
+```
+
+The API also supports approval: `POST /api/entries/:id/approve`.
+
+## Reports
+
+### Terminal
+
+```bash
+clawck report                        # Last 7 days
+clawck report --days 30 --detailed   # With individual entries
+clawck report --client acme-corp     # Filter by client
+```
+
+### HTML (interactive)
+
+```bash
+clawck report --format html -o report.html
+```
+
+The HTML report includes four tabs:
+- **Calendar** - Color-coded day grid showing entry count and hours
+- **Table** - Sortable table of all entries with full details
+- **Gantt** - Timeline visualization of tasks grouped by date
+- **CSV** - Copyable CSV data for spreadsheets
+
+### PDF
+
+```bash
+clawck report --format pdf -o report.pdf
 ```
 
-Entries merge cleanly by UUID — no conflicts, no duplicates.
+Professional timesheet PDF with summary stats, breakdowns by project/agent/category, and an entry details table.

 **Design principles:**
-- **Zero external dependencies** — SQLite is embedded, no Redis/Postgres/Docker needed
-- **One process** — API, dashboard, and MCP all run from the same `clawck serve`
-- **Append-first writes** — Entries are created and updated; deletion available via CLI
-- **UUID-based merging** — Multi-agent data combines without conflicts
-- **Configurable multipliers** — Human-equivalent estimates are transparent and adjustable
