  * Why no npm dependencies: the audience is non-developers. Requiring
  * extra packages before the very first command, or an API key before
  * anything works, is exactly the kind of friction that loses beginners.
- * This script uses only Node.js built-ins (fs, path, readline) and pastes

  * Usage:
  *   npx ship-create
  *
- * All templates this script needs (the starter-kit app, PROJECT.md,
- * HUMAN_FLOW.md, PROMPTS.md, product-type templates, and the agent rule
- * files) are bundled inside this package's own templates/ folder — nothing

+ * What changed from v1.3.1 → v1.4.0:
+ *  - Removed the AI-tool picker (no longer needed)
+ *  - Added 4 idea questions so PROJECT.md + HUMAN_FLOW.md are pre-filled
