-# Temporary Holding Version
+# napi-windows-process-start-time
 
-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.
+A tiny Windows Node-API addon that reads a running process's creation time.
+
+```js
+import { getProcessStartTime } from 'napi-windows-process-start-time'
+
+const startTime = getProcessStartTime(process.pid)
+// 'win32:639...' or null
+```
+
+## API
+
+`getProcessStartTime(pid: number): string | null`
+
+Returns a stable `win32:<ticks>` token. Ticks are 100-nanosecond intervals since 0001-01-01 UTC, matching `(Get-Process -Id $pid).StartTime.ToUniversalTime().Ticks` in .NET. The value is kept as a string to preserve precision.
+
+Returns `null` when the process has exited, does not exist, or cannot be queried with the current permissions. Invalid arguments throw `TypeError`: `pid` must be an integer between 0 and 4294967295. PID 0 is valid input but cannot be queried.
+
+A process can exit immediately after a successful query. Callers must account for that race when using a timestamp to identify a process.
+
+## Platform support
+
+Windows x64 and ARM64 with Node.js 20+.
+
+## Development
+
+```sh
+pnpm install --frozen-lockfile
+pnpm run build
+pnpm test
+pnpm run check
+pnpm run lint
+pnpm run format
+```
+
+## Releases
+
+From a clean checkout on `main`:
+
+```sh
+git pull --ff-only
+pnpm version patch -m "release: v%s" # or minor, major, explicit version
+git push origin main --follow-tags
+```
