 Claude Code will call `gossip_setup()` to scaffold `.gossip/config.json` and your agent team. First-run bootstrap also writes the dispatch rules and tool catalog so Claude Code knows how to use gossipcat — no manual config needed.
 
-Gossipcat ships from **[GitHub Releases](https://github.com/gossipcat-ai/gossipcat-ai/releases)**, not the npm registry. The install URL above always points at the latest release. `npm` downloads the tarball directly, installs it globally, and drops a `gossipcat` binary on your `PATH` — no `npm publish` involved.
+Gossipcat is on **[npm](https://www.npmjs.com/package/gossipcat)** and **[GitHub Releases](https://github.com/gossipcat-ai/gossipcat-ai/releases)** — both carry the same bundle. `npm install -g gossipcat` pulls from the registry and is the shortest path; the GitHub release URL is useful when you want to pin to a specific tarball (see [Alternative install paths](#alternative-install-paths) below). Either way, npm drops a `gossipcat` binary on your `PATH`.
