+
+      "Object" form shall mean any form resulting from mechanical
+      transformation or translation of a Source form, including but
+      not limited to compiled object code, generated documentation,

+
+      "Work" shall mean the work of authorship, whether in Source or
+      Object form, made available under the License, as indicated by a
+      copyright notice that is included in or attached to the work
+      (an example is provided in the Appendix below).
+
+      "Derivative Works" shall mean any work, whether in Source or Object
+      form, that is based on (or derived from) the Work and for which the
+      editorial revisions, annotations, elaborations, or other modifications
+      represent, as a whole, an original work of authorship. For the purposes
+      of this License, Derivative Works shall not include works that remain

+      the Work and Derivative Works thereof.
+
+      "Contribution" shall mean any work of authorship, including
+      the original version of the Work and any modifications or additions

+      submitted to Licensor for inclusion in the Work by the copyright owner
+      or by an individual or Legal Entity authorized to submit on behalf of
+      the copyright owner. For the purposes of this definition, "submitted"

+      designated in writing by the copyright owner as "Not a Contribution."
+
+      "Contributor" shall mean Licensor and any individual or Legal Entity
+      on behalf of whom a Contribution has been received by Licensor and
+      subsequently incorporated within the Work.
+
+   2. Grant of Copyright License. Subject to the terms and conditions of
+      this License, each Contributor hereby grants to You a perpetual,
+      worldwide, non-exclusive, no-charge, royalty-free, irrevocable
+      copyright license to reproduce, prepare Derivative Works of,
+      publicly display, publicly perform, sublicense, and distribute the
+      Work and such Derivative Works in Source or Object form.
+
+   3. Grant of Patent License. Subject to the terms and conditions of
+      this License, each Contributor hereby grants to You a perpetual,
+      worldwide, non-exclusive, no-charge, royalty-free, irrevocable
+      (except as stated in this section) patent license to make, have made,
+      use, offer to sell, sell, import, and otherwise transfer the Work,
+      where such license applies only to those patent claims licensable
+      by such Contributor that are necessarily infringed by their
+      Contribution(s) alone or by combination of their Contribution(s)
+      with the Work to which such Contribution(s) was submitted. If You
+      institute patent litigation against any entity (including a
+      cross-claim or counterclaim in a lawsuit) alleging that the Work
+      or a Contribution incorporated within the Work constitutes direct
+      or contributory patent infringement, then any patent licenses
+      granted to You under this License for that Work shall terminate
+      as of the date such litigation is filed.
+
+   4. Redistribution. You may reproduce and distribute copies of the
+      Work or Derivative Works thereof in any medium, with or without
+      modifications, and in Source or Object form, provided that You
+      meet the following conditions:
+
+      (a) You must give any other recipients of the Work or
+          Derivative Works a copy of this License; and
+
+      (b) You must cause any modified files to carry prominent notices
+          stating that You changed the files; and
+
+      (c) You must retain, in the Source form of any Derivative Works
+          that You distribute, all copyright, patent, trademark, and
+          attribution notices from the Source form of the Work,
+          excluding those notices that do not pertain to any part of
+          the Derivative Works; and
+
+      (d) If the Work includes a "NOTICE" text file as part of its
+          distribution, then any Derivative Works that You distribute must
+          include a readable copy of the attribution notices contained
+          within such NOTICE file, excluding those notices that do not
+          pertain to any part of the Derivative Works, in at least one
+          of the following places: within a NOTICE text file distributed
+          as part of the Derivative Works; within the Source form or
+          documentation, if provided along with the Derivative Works; or,
+          within a display generated by the Derivative Works, if and
+          wherever such third-party notices normally appear. The contents
+          of the NOTICE file are for informational purposes only and
+          do not modify the License. You may add Your own attribution
+          notices within Derivative Works that You distribute, alongside
+          or as an addendum to the NOTICE text from the Work, provided
+          that such additional attribution notices cannot be construed
+          as modifying the License.
+
+      You may add Your own copyright statement to Your modifications and
+      may provide additional or different license terms and conditions
+      for use, reproduction, or distribution of Your modifications, or
+      for any such Derivative Works as a whole, provided Your use,
+      reproduction, and distribution of the Work otherwise complies with
+      the conditions stated in this License.
+
+   5. Submission of Contributions. Unless You explicitly state otherwise,
+      any Contribution intentionally submitted for inclusion in the Work
+      by You to the Licensor shall be under the terms and conditions of
+      this License, without any additional terms or conditions.
+      Notwithstanding the above, nothing herein shall supersede or modify
+      the terms of any separate license agreement you may have executed
+      with Licensor regarding such Contributions.
+
+   6. Trademarks. This License does not grant permission to use the trade
+      names, trademarks, service marks, or product names of the Licensor,
+      except as required for reasonable and customary use in describing the
+      origin of the Work and reproducing the content of the NOTICE file.
+
+   7. Disclaimer of Warranty. Unless required by applicable law or
+      agreed to in writing, Licensor provides the Work (and each
+      Contributor provides its Contributions) on an "AS IS" BASIS,
+      WITHOUT WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF ANY KIND, either express or
+      implied, including, without limitation, any warranties or conditions
+      of TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, MERCHANTABILITY, or FITNESS FOR A
+      PARTICULAR PURPOSE. You are solely responsible for determining the
+      appropriateness of using or redistributing the Work and assume any
+      risks associated with Your exercise of permissions under this License.
+
+   8. Limitation of Liability. In no event and under no legal theory,
+      whether in tort (including negligence), contract, or otherwise,
+      unless required by applicable law (such as deliberate and grossly
+      negligent acts) or agreed to in writing, shall any Contributor be
+      liable to You for damages, including any direct, indirect, special,
+      incidental, or consequential damages of any character arising as a
+      result of this License or out of the use or inability to use the
+      Work (including but not limited to damages for loss of goodwill,
+      work stoppage, computer failure or malfunction, or any and all
+      other commercial damages or losses), even if such Contributor
+      has been advised of the possibility of such damages.
+
+   9. Accepting Warranty or Additional Liability. While redistributing
+      the Work or Derivative Works thereof, You may choose to offer,
+      and charge a fee for, acceptance of support, warranty, indemnity,
+      or other liability obligations and/or rights consistent with this
+      License. However, in accepting such obligations, You may act only
+      on Your own behalf and on Your sole responsibility, not on behalf
+      of any other Contributor, and only if You agree to indemnify,
+      defend, and hold each Contributor harmless for any liability
+      incurred by, or claims asserted against, such Contributor by reason
+      of your accepting any such warranty or additional liability.
+
+   END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS
+
+   APPENDIX: How to apply the Apache License to your work.
+
+      To apply the Apache License to your work, attach the following
+      boilerplate notice, with the fields enclosed by brackets "[]"

 # clixad
 
 A terminal coding agent that routes model calls through the Clixad metering gateway. No
-subscription: you earn credits by completing rewarded offers in your browser and spend them on real
-model API calls.
+subscription: the cheapest models are free to use up to a daily allowance, and past that you earn
+credits by completing rewarded offers in your browser and spend them on real model API calls.
+
+`/model` marks which models are free and shows roughly how many free turns the allowance still buys
+on each. The same allowance goes a lot further on the cheapest one. The status line counts it down,
+and once it is gone the model carries on against credits. The REPL names the free models when it
+opens and again if your balance runs out. `/help` leads with them too, and a new account starts on
+one.
+
+While you type a task, the status line shows roughly what it will cost and whether your credits
+cover it, for example `task ≈ 560–3.1k · free` or `task ≈ 7.5k–47k · not enough, /model`. It is an
+estimate from the size of the conversation and how tasks usually run; what is charged is what the
+model actually used.
+
+The same account also works in the browser, at <https://app.clixad.io/chat>: sign in with the
+GitHub account you use here. A model, a reasoning setting, your name and instructions set there or on
+its account page hold here too (from 0.0.1-beta.31), and `/model` and `/effort` here hold there.
+
+`/effort` sets how long the model thinks before it answers, saved separately for each model.
+Thinking is billed as output tokens like the answer, so a higher setting costs more credits per turn
+and a lower one costs less. `auto` leaves the model at its own default, and a model with nothing to
+adjust says so. The cost preview is not shown while a setting above the model's default is active,
+because it is measured at the defaults.

 Requires Node.js >= 20.
 
+## What it does
+
+It reads, searches and edits files and runs shell commands in the directory you start it in, asking
+before it changes anything. `shift+tab` cycles through the permission modes. Beyond that:
+
+- **Auto mode** asks you nothing while it works. Commands it knows are harmless run straight away,
+  and a short list of destructive ones (`sudo`, deleting your home directory, piping a download into
+  a shell, reading your SSH keys) is refused outright. Anything else is checked first by one short
+  call to the model you are using, billed like any other call, and if that check cannot run you are
+  asked instead. It is offered on every model except the two smallest, GPT-5 Nano and Gemini 2.5
+  Flash-Lite.
+
+- **Reads the web:** searches for current documentation and error messages, and fetches a page,
+  JSON endpoint or PDF to read it.
+- **Runs things in the background:** dev servers, watchers, tailed logs. They keep running across
+  turns; `/bg` lists them and stops them, and nothing survives the session.
+- **Looks at images:** point it at a screenshot with `@shot.png` and it sees the picture, not the
+  filename.
+- **Delegates wide searches** to a sub-agent, so the forty files it opened to find the three that
+  mattered stay out of the conversation you are paying for.
+- **Keeps a task list** on multi-step work, and **asks you** when guessing wrong would waste real
+  work.
+- **Uses MCP servers** you configure in `.mcp.json` or `~/.clixad/mcp.json`; `/mcp` shows their
+  status. Every tool a server offers is put to you before it runs.
+
+Type `/help` for the commands, `@` to attach a file, and `!` to run a shell command yourself.
+
+## Build from source
+
+The source is at <https://github.com/clixad/cli>. It is the CLI only: the gateway it talks to,
+which meters model calls and keeps your balance, is a separate service and is not part of it.
+
+```bash
+git clone https://github.com/clixad/cli.git
+cd cli
+npm ci
+npm run build       # bundles the CLI into dist/
+node dist/clixad.mjs --version
+npm test
+npm run typecheck
+```
+
+`npm start` runs the CLI from source without building it.

+We don't accept pull requests. Clixad is developed in a private repository, and
+github.com/clixad/cli is an automatic one-way copy of the CLI's part of it, so a pull request has
