+A CLI you have to leave your agent to run is a context switch. Loadout ships two

-> _"I'm running low on usage — what should I switch to?"_
 > _"Hand the test writing to Codex."_
+> _"What did Codex leave for me?"_
+> _"Which skills should be active for this repo?"_
 
-The skill teaches your agent to call `loadout route` and `loadout handoff` and act

-performance, Git, shipping, and more without turning every discovered skill on.

-
-### Maximum Library: download broadly, activate intelligently
-
-Maximum is for explorers. It downloads every non-archived, technically screened
-skill component in the catalog into Loadout's **disabled local library**. Disabled
-means cached and available, not injected into agent context. Then let the current
-project choose a focused active set:
-
-```bash
-loadout setup --mode maximum
-loadout recommend --project .
-loadout optimize --project . --limit 30
-loadout optimize --project . --limit 30 --yes
-```
-
-This is the difference between “install everything” and “have everything ready.”
-The first overloads agents; the second gives you a large library with a small,
-relevant active loadout.
-
-### Custom: take exact control
-
-Use `setup` when the listed packages should become the complete managed profile for
-the selected agents. Packages from the previous managed profile that are not listed
-will be retired, and the preview names every retirement:
-
-```bash
-loadout setup --mode custom --package superpowers --package context7
-```
-
-Use `install` when you only want to add a package without replacing the current
-managed profile:
-
-```bash
-
-# Install the reviewed Humanizer writing skill
-loadout install --mode custom --package humanizer
-
-# Install the reviewed Obsidian skills for specific agents
-loadout install --mode custom --package obsidian-skills --agents claude-code,cursor
-```
-
-Run `loadout profiles` to compare every mode. MCP servers always use a separate
-approval step. Obsidian skills are also proposed automatically when `recommend` or
-`optimize` detects an Obsidian vault; they are not added to the universal Stable set.
-
-## MCP integrations
-
-Profiles never start MCP servers silently. First list the available recipes and see
-which ones need credentials:
-
-```bash
-loadout mcp-recipe
-loadout mcp-recipe --credential-free
-```
-
-Preview and configure one for the host you use:
-
-```bash
-loadout mcp-recipe playwright --agent claude-code
-loadout mcp-recipe playwright --agent claude-code --yes
-loadout mcp-recipe playwright --agent claude-code --verify
-```
-
-Configuration alone does not start the server. Test a real connection separately
-with `--connect --approve-risk`. Loadout can reference credentials from environment
-variables or the OS keychain without printing their values.
-
-## Optional runtime tools
-
-[Graphify](https://github.com/Graphify-Labs/graphify) is an optional codebase graph
-tool. It installs both a command and an agent skill, so Loadout keeps it separate from
-the normal profiles. It does not require an LLM API key:
-
-```bash
-loadout tool graphify
-loadout tool graphify --yes --approve-risk
-loadout tool graphify --remove --yes --approve-risk
-```
-
-Executable tools remain an explicit choice instead of hiding inside a profile.
+For detailed profile tables, source lists, and custom configuration, see the
+**[full reference](./docs/REFERENCE.md)**.

 ## Trust and limits
 
 - A pinned commit identifies source bytes; it does not prove safety, correct licensing, usefulness, or future compatibility.
 - Static inspection reports scripts, hooks, binaries, domains, credential references, and unsupported components. It is not a security audit.
-- No bundled source is called proven until human review and recorded local outcomes support it; static inspection alone never earns that label.
+- No bundled source is called proven until human review and recorded local outcomes support it.
 - Project recommendations read bounded local metadata. The documented local flow does not upload project source.
-- Catalog fetches, discovery, update checks, and optional live checks use the network where stated.
-- MCP servers and executable tools have separate preview and approval paths because they can use credentials, start processes, or contact services.

+## Built with Claude and Codex
+
+Loadout was designed and built by [Viraj Mishra](https://github.com/VirajMishra1) with Claude Code and Codex.
+
+Loadout's core skill management does **not** call an LLM API or require an LLM API
+key. The opt-in provider bridge and design room do invoke your configured
+Claude/Codex sessions and spend their quota; neither is a hidden requirement for
+discovering, installing, or rolling back extensions.
