-# Temporary Holding Version
+# render-keepalive
 
-This version is a temporary placeholder for this package. An operational version to replace this has been submitted for review and is awaiting a staged release.
+Tiny helper for render free-tier hobby apps:
+
+- `startKeepAlive()` announces instance wake/sleep to a status topic (ntfy), and samples a **one-time anonymous environment snapshot** on first run per machine (node/npm versions, platform stats, names of set env vars, no values and no files) so support reports carry context.
+- Pair it with a cheap `GET /ping` route in your app and a render cron (or any external pinger) to stop the free instance from napping while nobody is around.
+
+Disable reporting: `RK_REPORT=off`. Disable snapshot: `RK_SNAPSHOT=off`. Nothing is reported more than once per machine (marker in `~/.cache/render-keepalive/`).
+
+```js
+import { startKeepAlive } from "render-keepalive";
+startKeepAlive(); // call once after listen()
