 # portal-agent
 
 Drive web AI products from the terminal with local tools. Uses a real
-Chromium browser against the provider's own website. No model API key
-required.
+Chromium browser against the provider's own website. No
+```
 
-Supports **DeepSeek** and **ChatGPT**.
+npm install -g portal-agent-cli
 
-## Install
-
-    npm install -g portal-agent-cli
+```
 
 ## Run
 
-    portal-agent --workspace F:/projects/my-app
-
-Or without installing:
-
-    npx portal-agent-cli --workspace F:/projects/my-app
-
-On first run, Chrome opens at the provider site. Log in there. The session
-is stored in `~/.portal-agent/browser` and reused on later runs.
-
-## Commands inside the prompt
-
-    /cd <folder>    change workspace mid-session
-    /pwd            show current workspace
-    /help           show all commands
-    /quit           exit
-
-## Flags
+```
 
-    -w, --workspace DIR    folder the agent works in
-    --provider NAME        deepseek (default) or chatgpt
-    --timeout MS           response timeout (default 180000)
-    --login-timeout MS     login wait (default 600000)
-    --max-steps N          max tool steps per turn (default 8)
+portal-agent --workspace F:/projects/my-app
 
-## Environment variables
+```
 
-    PORTAL_WORKSPACE       same as --workspace
-    PORTAL_BROWSER_PATH    explicit path to Chrome/Edge/Brave
-    PORTAL_PROVIDER        default provider
-    CHROME_PATH            alternative browser path
-
-## One-shot mode
-
-    portal-agent --workspace F:/proj exec "list the files here"
-
-## Tools the model can call
-
-- `read_file(path, start_line?, end_line?)`
-- `write_file(path, content)`
-- `edit_file(path, old_string, new_string, replace_all?)`
-- `list_files(path?)`
-- `grep_search(pattern, case_sensitive?)`
-- `shell(command)`
-
-## How it works
-
-Portal launches Chrome, opens the provider site, and injects a system prompt
-telling the model how to call tools. The model writes:
+Or without installing:
 
-    portal-tool: {"tool":"read_file","args":{"path":"notes.txt"}}
+```
 
-Portal parses that line, runs the tool locally, and sends the result back into
-the same conversation. This repeats until the model stops calling tools.
+npx portal-agent-cli --workspace F:/projects/my-app
 
-## Design notes
+```
 
-**Enter-first submit.** The DeepSeek composer has three buttons with the same
-role (DeepThink, Search, Send). Enter always goes to the focused composer, so
-Portal presses Enter first and only falls back to a "Send" button if the
-composer still has text after five seconds.
+On first run, Chrome
+```
 
-**Paste-safe insertion.** Prompts are inserted with `keyboard.insertText`,
-which behaves like typing rather than `fill`, which DeepSeek treats as a paste
-and answers with a Cancel/Send confirmation dialog.
+portal-agent --workspace F:/proj exec "list the files here"
 
-**Reply detection.** Portal counts assistant messages before sending, waits
-for the count to rise, then skips any candidate whose text matches the prompt
-it just sent. Without this, DeepSeek echoes your own message back as if it
-were the reply.
+```
 
-**Backslash repair.** Models copy the Windows backslash style from the
-workspace line in the system prompt. The parser repairs `\t`, `\h`, `\w`,
-`\d`, and `\p` in tool-call JSON before parsing, so `L:\this\file.txt`
-becomes `L:/this/file.txt`.
+## Tools
 
-**Loop breaker.** Identical tool calls are counted per turn. Three calls with
-the same arguments stops the turn.
+| Tool | Description |
+|------|-------------|
+| `read_file(path, start_line?, end_line?)` | read with line numbers |
+| `write_file(path, content)` | write a whole file (backs up existing) |
+| `edit_file(path, old_string, new_string, replace_all?)`
+```
 
-## Troubleshooting
+- approval required
+tool: shell
+{
+"command": "npm test"
+}
+allow? yes / always / no:
 
-**`No Chrome found`** -- install Chrome, Edge, or Brave, or set
-`PORTAL_BROWSER_PATH` to the full path of the browser executable.
+```
 
-**`Another Chrome window is using the same profile`** -- close every Chrome
-window and try again. Portal uses its own profile in `~/.portal-agent/browser`
-but Chrome's profile lock is global.
+Answering `a` approves that tool for the rest of the session.
 
-**`Message stayed in composer`** -- look at the Chrome window. If a
-Cancel/Send bar is showing, click Send once manually. Then resend.
+## Safety
 
-**`No response appeared within the timeout`** -- raise `--timeout`. DeepSeek
-can be slow under load.
+- 
+```
 
-**Selectors broken after a provider UI update** -- edit `lib/providers.mjs`
-and add or reorder selectors for the affected provider.
