 ## Install
 
-One command. Installs Node.js if you don't have it, then installs offgrid-ai.
+### Recommended: one command installer

+Installs Node.js if you don't have it, then installs offgrid-ai and adds it to your PATH. Prints a welcome message so you know it worked.
 
 ```bash
 curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/eeshansrivastava89/offgrid-ai/main/install.sh | bash

 ```bash

+npm install -g offgrid-ai@latest --prefer-online
 ```
 
+This works without extra flags, but npm hides postinstall output by default, so you won't see the welcome message. Open a new terminal window or run `source ~/.zshrc` and then `offgrid-ai`.

 ## How it works
 
 1. **Auto-detect everything.** Scans for GGUF models in LM Studio and Hugging Face cache directories, and checks managed backends like Ollama/oMLX through their local APIs. Reads model metadata (quantization, context size, vision, thinking mode) directly from GGUF files. No presets, no manual configuration.
