+
+   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

+      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,

-# Temporary Holding Version
+# lazycow
 
-This version is a temporary placeholder for this package. An operational version to replace this has been submitted for review and is awaiting a staged release.
+**Lazycow Studio from the command line, from your AI agent and from your code.**
+
+[Lazycow Studio](https://github.com/kensaurus/lazycow-studio) turns the photos and videos you never edited into short vertical reels and YouTube trip films. It runs on your own computer, and a person approves every post. This package connects to it in three ways:
+
+| You want to… | Run |
+|:--|:--|
+| Install the studio (no terminal skills needed after this line) | `npx lazycow install` |
+| Let Claude Code, Claude Desktop or Cursor drive it | `claude mcp add lazycow -- npx -y lazycow mcp` |
+| Script it from Node | `import { createClient } from "lazycow"` |
+
+Approving a reel stays a person's job in the studio. Agents and scripts can make, plan and post approved reels. They cannot approve.
+
+## Install the studio
+
+```
+npx lazycow install
+```
+
+It downloads this version's release zip from GitHub, checks it against the SHA-256 built into the package, unpacks it to `~/Lazycow Studio`, and starts the double-click setup. The setup installs Node, Python and ffmpeg for Lazycow only, in about 10 minutes. Options: `--dir <empty folder>`, `--yes` (take every suggestion).
+
+Prefer to click? Download the zip from [Releases](https://github.com/kensaurus/lazycow-studio/releases), unzip it, read `README.TXT`, and double-click **Start Lazycow**.
+
+## Connect an AI agent (MCP)
+
+Claude Code:
+
+```
+claude mcp add lazycow -- npx -y lazycow mcp
+```
+
+Claude Desktop or Cursor (`claude_desktop_config.json` / `.cursor/mcp.json`):
+
+```json
+{
+  "mcpServers": {
+    "lazycow": { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "lazycow", "mcp"] }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+The server finds the studio by itself: `STUDIO_PORT` and `STUDIO_API_TOKEN` when set, else the `.env` in `LAZYCOW_DIR`, else the folder the setup recorded. So your agent config never holds a copy of the token. Tools: studio status, list and make reels, remix, plan and publish approved reels, jobs, projects, research, priced AI assist, performance. Full list: [docs/mcp.md](https://github.com/kensaurus/lazycow-studio/blob/main/docs/mcp.md).
+
+Each tool answers with a plain sentence and the data, and the same data as `structuredContent` for programs (a list
+arrives as `{ "items": [...] }`). Account secrets never leave the studio.
+
+Listed in the official MCP Registry as `io.github.kensaurus/lazycow`.
+
+## Use the API from code
+
+```js
+import { createClient } from "lazycow";
+
+const studio = createClient();            // or createClient({ port: 4318, token: "..." })
+const health = await studio.health();
+const { reels } = await studio.overview();
+const anything = await studio.request("GET", "/api/posts");
+```
+
+Every route is in the studio's [OpenAPI document](https://github.com/kensaurus/lazycow-studio/blob/main/docs/openapi.yaml). Errors are `StudioError` with `status`, `path` and `body`. Types are included.
+
+From a shell:
+
+```
+npx lazycow status
+npx lazycow api GET /api/posts
+npx lazycow open
+```
+
+## Requirements
+
+Node 20 or newer. The studio itself runs on Windows 10/11 and macOS 14+ (Apple silicon); Linux works from source.
+

+ * PURPOSE: Find the Lazycow Studio on this computer: its folder, its port and its optional API token.
+ * OVERVIEW: The studio keeps STUDIO_PORT and STUDIO_API_TOKEN in the .env file in its own folder. That folder is
+ *           LAZYCOW_DIR when set, else the one the double-click setup recorded in installed.json. Environment
+ *           variables win over the file, so a config can still point anywhere.
+ * DEPENDENCIES: node:fs, node:os, node:path
+ * Part of Lazycow Studio by kensaurus (https://kensaur.us). Apache-2.0.
