+Starts an interactive chat session. Prior is an agentic AI — it can read, write, and edit files, search your codebase, run shell commands, research the web, generate images, and automate Prior services, chaining tools together to finish a task from a single prompt.

 | Capability | Example prompt |
 |---|---|
-| **Files** | `read the file package.json` |
+| **Read / write files** | `read package.json` |
+| **Edit code (surgical)** | `in server.js change the port to 4000` |
+| **Search the codebase** | `find every place we call fetchUser` |
+| **Coding** | `write a python script that prints fibonacci numbers` |
 | **Shell** | `what node version am i on` |
-| **Web search** | `what is the latest news in the philippines` |
+| **Web research** | `what is the latest news in the philippines` |
 | **Weather** | `what's the weather in tokyo` |
 | **Image generation** | `generate a sunset over the ocean` |
-| **Clipboard** | `read my clipboard` |
 | **Prior Network** | `show my prior profile` |

+Prior locates the file, searches for the code, reads it, and makes a surgical edit — all in one go.
+
+## Attach files with `@`
+
+Type `@` to pull a file into the conversation as context — an interactive picker appears (↑/↓ to select, Tab/Enter to insert).
 
 ```
-> find all .js files in this project and tell me which one is the largest
+> summarize @src/server.js and suggest improvements
 ```
 
-Prior will list the directory, check file sizes, and report back — all in one go.
+## One-shot mode
+
+Run a single prompt and exit — scriptable and pipe-able, no chat session.
+
+```bash
+prior run "explain what this project does"
+cat error.log | prior run "what's causing this error?"
+prior run --yes "in config.js bump the timeout to 30s"   # --yes auto-approves edits

 ## Tips
 
+- **Attach files** — type `@` for an interactive file picker that adds a file's contents as context
 - **Multiline input** — end a line with `\` and press Enter to continue on the next line
 - **Clipboard images** — press `Alt+V` to attach an image from your clipboard
 - **Cancel** — press `Ctrl+C` to cancel a running response
 
 ## Requirements
 
-- Node.js 16+
+- Node.js 16+ (npm install), **or** the standalone `prior.exe` — no Node needed
 - A [Prior Network](https://priornetwork.com) account
 
+## Maintainers
+
+See **[guide.md](guide.md)** for the release process — versioning, publishing to npm,
+building/attaching the standalone `prior.exe`, the self-updater, and the CI workflows.
