-### Quick Start
+## Gyre — Production Readiness Team
 
-#### Prerequisites
+**4 agents assess whether your project is ready to ship — detect your stack, model what "ready" means, find what's missing, and refine together**
 
-- Node.js 18+ or Bun
-- Git
-- Claude Code or Claude.ai
+[![Agents](https://img.shields.io/badge/agents-4-brightgreen)](docs/agents.md)
+[![Workflows](https://img.shields.io/badge/workflows-7-success)](docs/agents.md)
 
-#### Install
+Most teams ship to production without knowing if they're actually ready — missing SLOs, incomplete observability, unreviewed deployment strategies. Gyre analyzes your project's filesystem, builds a capabilities model tailored to your specific tech stack, and surfaces what's absent. No generic checklists — every finding is contextual to your project.
 
-```bash
-npm install convoke-agents && npx -p convoke-agents convoke-install-vortex
 ```
+                    4 Agents · 4 Contracts
 
-All 7 agents with 22 workflows are installed and ready to use. Something not working? Run `npx -p convoke-agents convoke-doctor` or check the [FAQ](docs/faq.md).
-
-#### Personalize
-
-Open `_bmad/bme/_vortex/config.yaml` and replace `{user}` with your name. Agents use this to personalize their interactions.

-Open any agent file from `_bmad/bme/_vortex/agents/` and paste its contents into your conversation.
-
-**How activation works:** Each agent is a markdown file containing a full persona, menu system, and workflow instructions. When Claude reads the file, it adopts that agent's expertise and presents you with an interactive menu. Pick a workflow from the menu and follow the guided steps.
-
-#### Your First 15 Minutes
-
-1. **Personalize** — If you haven't already, edit `_bmad/bme/_vortex/config.yaml` and replace `{user}` with your name
-2. **Activate Emma** — `cat _bmad/bme/_vortex/agents/contextualization-expert.md`
-3. **See the menu** — Emma presents numbered options. Select **Lean Persona** from the menu
-4. **Follow the steps** — Emma walks you through 6 guided steps, asking questions at each one
-5. **Find your artifact** — When done, your lean persona is saved in `_bmad-output/vortex-artifacts/`
-6. **Follow the Compass** — At the end, Emma's Vortex Compass suggests which agent to use next based on what you learned
-
-Each workflow ends with a Compass routing suggestion. You don't need to follow a linear path — the system guides you to whichever stream needs attention.

+### What Gyre Produces
 
-See [UPDATE-GUIDE.md](UPDATE-GUIDE.md) for migration paths and troubleshooting.
+Gyre writes structured artifacts to `.gyre/` in your project root — safe to commit, containing technology categories only (no file contents, paths, or secrets):
 
-### Using the Agents
+- **Stack Profile** (`.gyre/stack-profile.yaml`) — classified tech stack with detection confidence
+- **Capabilities Manifest** (`.gyre/capabilities.yaml`) — 20+ capabilities across observability, deployment, reliability, and security
+- **Findings Report** (`.gyre/findings.yaml`) — absence-based findings tagged by severity, confidence, and source
+- **Feedback Log** (`.gyre/feedback.yaml`) — team amendments that persist and improve the model over time
 
-Each agent can be used independently or as part of the full Vortex flow:
+**Three modes:** *Crisis* (first run, full pipeline), *Anticipation* (re-analysis with cached model), *Regeneration* (fresh model rebuild).
 
-1. **Emma (Contextualize)** — Start here when defining a new product or problem space
-2. **Isla (Empathize)** — Start here when you need to understand users better
-3. **Mila (Synthesize)** — Start here when you have research to converge into a problem definition
-4. **Liam (Hypothesize)** — Start here when you have a problem definition and need testable hypotheses
-5. **Wade (Externalize)** — Start here when you have hypotheses ready to test
-6. **Noah (Sensitize)** — Start here when experiments have graduated to production
-7. **Max (Systematize)** — Start here when you have results and need to decide next steps
+**Delta tracking:** Run Gyre after making improvements to see what you've resolved — findings are tagged [NEW], [CARRIED], or resolved.
 
-Max's **Vortex Navigation** workflow helps identify which stream needs attention based on evidence gaps — you don't have to follow a linear path. Every workflow ends with a **Vortex Compass** that routes you to the right next agent based on what you learned. Ten handoff contracts (HC1-HC10) ensure structured information flows between agents — see the [contracts directory](_bmad/bme/_vortex/contracts/) for details.

+The factory guides you through composition pattern selection (Independent or Sequential), agent scope definition with overlap detection, contract design, and integration wiring. Decision state is persisted as a spec file for resume and express mode. Output passes the same validation as native teams.
