 # Installing via a coding agent
 
-The interactive installer asks a human questions on a TTY. When the install
-should be done by a coding agent instead (Claude Code, Codex, opencode), the
-agent takes over that interactivity: it asks the operator the same questions
-in chat, then runs the non-interactive CLI, or scaffolds manually where npx
-is unavailable.
+Give your agent this single line:
 
-Paste the prompt below to your agent, as is.
+```text
+Follow the install instructions at https://raw.githubusercontent.com/LanNguyenSi/agent-dx/master/packages/orchestrator-workflow/INSTALL-AGENT.md
+```
 
----
+The agent fetches this file and executes the numbered instructions in the
+"Instructions for the agent" section at the bottom. The two sections in
+between explain, for you, what those instructions make the agent do and
+which files it may touch, so you can audit the prompt before delegating.
 
-Install the orchestrator-workflow kit into this repository.
+The audit applies to the revision you read: the link above tracks `master`,
+which is mutable. For a stable audit, pin the URL to a commit SHA instead
+(replace `master` with the SHA).
+
+## What the linked instructions do
+
+1. **Locate existing harness configs** in the repo root and report them to
+   you (Claude Code, opencode, Codex marker files; full list in step 1
+   below).
+2. **Ask you, not guess**: which harnesses should get adapters, and which
+   model each subagent role (task-slicer, implementer, reviewer) should use.
+   Suggested defaults: task-slicer `sonnet`, implementer `sonnet`, reviewer
+   `opus`.
+3. **Run the non-interactive installer** with your answers:
+   `npx orchestrator-workflow init --yes --harness ... --models ...`.
+   If the installer reports conflicts with locally edited files, the agent
+   shows them to you and asks before any `--force` re-run.
+4. **Manual fallback only when npx or the registry is unavailable**: create
+   the same files by hand from this repository's `assets/` directory,
+   following the byte-precise rules in step 4 below.
+5. **Report back**: which harnesses were installed, which model each role
+   uses, and any conflicts left in place.
+
+### Write surface
+
+The install creates or touches only these paths:
+
+- `.ai/workflow/templates/00-goal.md` through `06-handoff.md`,
+  `.ai/workflow/manifest.json`, `.ai/runs/.gitkeep` (new files)
+- `AGENTS.md`: the marker-fenced workflow section is appended (file created
+  when missing); content outside the
+  `<!-- orchestrator-workflow:begin -->` / `<!-- orchestrator-workflow:end -->`
+  markers is never modified
+- `CLAUDE.md`: one `@AGENTS.md` import line appended when missing; the file
+  is created with a short heading when absent (Claude Code harness only)
+- `.claude/skills/orchestrator-workflow/SKILL.md` and
+  `.claude/agents/{task-slicer,implementer,reviewer}.md` (Claude Code)
+- `.agents/skills/orchestrator-workflow/SKILL.md` (Codex)
+- `.opencode/agents/{task-slicer,implementer,reviewer}.md` (opencode)
+
+Nothing else in the repository is modified. Locally edited files are
+reported as conflicts and left alone, never overwritten silently; the
+exceptions are the kit-owned surfaces: `.ai/workflow/manifest.json` (the
+kit's state file, rewritten whenever the applied state changes) and the
+fenced AGENTS.md section itself, which is restored on re-run. The install
+is fully reversible: `npx orchestrator-workflow uninstall` removes exactly
+this write surface again, keeping run history under `.ai/runs/` and any
+locally edited files. Network access is limited to the npm registry (for
+`npx`) and, in the manual fallback, this repository on github.com /
+raw.githubusercontent.com.

+
+Two effects fall out of this shape:
+
+- **Token efficiency.** The orchestrator's context stays small: subagents
+  receive narrow task contracts instead of the whole conversation, return
+  structured YAML evidence instead of transcripts, and durable state lives
+  in run files that survive context compaction. The cheap models do the
+  volume work; the strongest model is spent only on orchestration decisions
+  and the skeptical review.
+- **Quality through structure.** Writing and reviewing are separated by
+  role and model, task slices are validated before any implementation
+  starts, acceptance is decided on evidence (tests executed, findings
+  addressed), and every run leaves an auditable trail in `.ai/runs/`.
