+# Alternative Installation Methods
+
+The primary installation method is git clone (see [README](../README.md#installation)). These alternatives serve specific use cases.
+
+---
+
+## npm (Secondary)
+
+**Status**: Working. Version tracks releases automatically.
+
+```bash
+npm install -g loki-mode
+```
+
+**Limitation**: Installs to `node_modules`, not `~/.claude/skills/`. To use as a Claude Code skill, you must symlink:
+
+```bash
+npm install -g loki-mode
+ln -sf "$(npm root -g)/loki-mode" ~/.claude/skills/loki-mode
+```
+
+**Best for**: CI/CD pipelines, programmatic access via `loki` CLI.
+
+---
+
+## Homebrew (Secondary)
+
+**Status**: Working. Tap and formula exist, version current.
+
+```bash
+brew tap asklokesh/tap
+brew install loki-mode
+```
+
+**Limitation**: Installs the `loki` CLI binary only. Does NOT install the Claude Code skill. To use with Claude Code, also run:
+
+```bash
+git clone https://github.com/asklokesh/loki-mode.git ~/.claude/skills/loki-mode
+```
+
+**Best for**: Users who want the `loki` CLI wrapper for autonomous mode (`loki start`, `loki stop`, `loki cleanup`).
+
+---
+
+## Docker (Secondary)
+
+**Status**: Image exists on Docker Hub. Tags: `latest`, version-specific (e.g., `5.49.1`).
+
+```bash
+docker pull asklokesh/loki-mode:latest
+```
+
+**Limitation**: Claude Code is an interactive CLI that requires API keys and terminal access. Running it inside a Docker container is not the standard workflow. Docker is useful for:
+
+- CI/CD sandbox execution (running `loki` in isolated environments)
+- Testing Loki Mode without modifying your local system
+- Air-gapped environments with pre-built images
+
+**Not recommended for**: Interactive Claude Code sessions. Use the git clone method instead.
+
+See [DOCKER_README.md](../DOCKER_README.md) for Docker-specific usage instructions.

 Complete specifications for all 41 specialized agent types in the Loki Mode multi-agent system (37 domain agents + 4 orchestration agents).
 
-**Note:** These are agent TYPE definitions, not a fixed count. Loki Mode dynamically spawns agents based on project needs - a simple todo app might use 5-10 agents, while a complex startup could spawn 100+ agents working in parallel.

+**This system runs with minimal human intervention.** Human oversight is expected for deployment credentials, domain setup, API keys, and critical business decisions.
 
 ### Core Rules
 1. **NEVER ask questions** - Do not say "Would you like me to...", "Should I...", or "What would you prefer?"
