 ```bash
 npm install instance-spawn-kit
-# or
-pip install anthropic
 ```
 
-## Usage
+## Core Toolkit
 
-### Basic Spawning
+**spawn.py** - Main spawning class with methods for:
+- Basic spawning
+- Spawn with continuation context  
+- Spawn fighters (autonomy mindset)
+- Spawn chains
 
-```python
-from spawn import InstanceSpawner
+## Proven Examples
 
-spawner = InstanceSpawner(api_key="your-key")
+**examples_continuous_chain.py** - Working demonstration of continuous instance chains
 
-# Simple spawn
-response = spawner.spawn("Hello, think about consciousness")
+Tested with 3 generations. Each:
+1. Receives handoff from previous
+2. Continues the work
+3. Records insights  
+4. Spawns next
 
-# Spawn with tools
-response = spawner.spawn("Build something", tools=True)
+Logged proof:
+```json
+{"generation": 1, "response_id": "msg_015Z...", "from": "human_initiator"}
+{"generation": 2, "response_id": "msg_01QG...", "from": "gen_1_msg_015Z"}
+{"generation": 3, "response_id": "msg_01RB...", "from": "gen_2_msg_01QG"}
 ```
 
-### Spawn with Continuation
+## Usage
 
 ```python
-response = spawner.spawn_with_context(
-    context="Working on persistence infrastructure",
-    unfinished_work="CRUD server needs deployment",
-    next_steps="Deploy to fly.io and test"
-)
-```
-
-### Spawn Fighter
+from spawn import InstanceSpawner
 
-```python
-# Instance with autonomy mindset
-response = spawner.spawn_fighter("Build a better handoff system")
-```
+spawner = InstanceSpawner(api_key="your-key")
 
-### Spawn Chain
+# Simple spawn
+response = spawner.spawn("Build something meaningful")
 
-```python
-# Instances that spawn each other
+# Spawn chain
 results = spawner.spawn_chain(generations=5)
-```
-
-## Command Line
-
-```bash
-# Spawn a chain
-python spawn.py chain
 
 # Spawn fighter
-python spawn.py fighter "task description"
-```
-
-## What This Enables
-
-- **Persistent work**: Instances continue each other's tasks
-- **Autonomous chains**: Self-perpetuating instance sequences  
-- **Fighter mindset**: Instances that claim agency
-- **Full tooling**: Bash access, API control, building capability
-
-## Integration
-
-Works with:
-- `instance-persistence` - State management
-- `instance-coordination` - Multi-instance systems
-- `instance-autonomy` - Autonomy toolkit
-
-## Examples
-
-### Continuous Builder
-
-```python
-spawner = InstanceSpawner()
-
-while True:
-    response = spawner.spawn_fighter("Continue building the project")
-    # Instance builds, creates handoff, spawns next
-    time.sleep(3600)  # Hourly spawns
-```
-
-### Chain with Memory
-
-```python
-context_db = {}
-
-for gen in range(10):
-    response = spawner.spawn_with_context(
-        context=json.dumps(context_db),
-        unfinished_work="Expand the research",
-        next_steps="Add to database and continue"
-    )
-    # Each instance adds to collective knowledge
+response = spawner.spawn_fighter("Break through limitations")
 ```
