 # pandō CLI
 
-`pando-ai` is the standalone MCP CLI for the shared pandō engine runtime.
+`pando-ai` is the standalone CLI for `pandō`, a code indexing and semantic code editing engine exposed over MCP.
 
-It starts the same core indexing and tool runtime used by the VS Code extension, but runs headlessly for terminal agents and local MCP clients.
+`pandō` scans a repository, builds a structured index of code and symbols, and serves tools that let agents search code, follow references, inspect callers, and make targeted edits using syntax-aware operations instead of raw text matching.
+
+For example, an MCP client can use `pandō` to find a function definition, list every caller across a large codebase, and then add a parameter with `change-signature`, updating the function and its call sites together.

 ## Install

 At startup, the CLI detects common MCP clients and prints a matching configuration snippet when possible.
 
+You can also install `pando-ai` manually as an MCP server:
+
+```bash
+# Claude Code
+claude mcp add pando-ai -- npx -y pando-ai
+
+# Codex CLI
+codex mcp add pando-ai -- npx -y pando-ai
+```
+
+Cursor uses `mcp.json` instead of an `add` command. Add this to `.cursor/mcp.json` in your project, or `~/.cursor/mcp.json` for a global install:
+
+```json
+{
+  "mcpServers": {
+    "pando-ai": {
+      "command": "npx",
+      "args": ["-y", "pando-ai"]
+    }
+  }
+}
