-    <strong style="color: #ffffff; font-size: 1.15em;">AI coding agents hallucinate. Constantly.</strong>
-  </div>
-  <p style="color: #c9c9d1; font-size: 0.95em; line-height: 1.6; margin: 0;">
-    They import phantom packages that don't exist on npm. They invent deprecated framework hooks. They hallucinate database columns not in your schema. They bloat system prompts with static rules models ignore, and repeat the exact syntax bug you fixed 20 minutes ago.
-    <br><br>
-    <strong>No linter catches this. No typechecker catches this.</strong> Linters only run <em>after</em> code is written and cannot understand semantic intent. Until now, nothing governed your AI in real time.

-
-<!-- QUICKSTART -->
-
-## ⚡ 30-Second Quickstart
-
-Install the governance layer in any repository with one command:
-
-```bash
-npx tribunal-kit init    # Scaffolds .agent/ and auto-detects Cursor, Windsurf, VS Code
-npx tribunal-kit sync    # Synchronizes active governance rules across all IDEs
-npx tribunal-kit status  # Verifies repository health and rule integrity
-```
-
-### 🔌 Universal CLI Agent Adapter (Claude Code, Aider, Cline)
-
-Tribunal Kit includes native plugins and adapter hooks for terminal agents:
-
-```bash
-npx tribunal-kit tk-adapt           # Auto-detect and install for all active CLI agents
-npx tribunal-kit tk-adapt claude    # Install directly for Claude Code
-npx tribunal-kit tk-adapt aider     # Install directly for Aider
-npx tribunal-kit tk-adapt --global  # Install globally to ~/.tribunal-kit/
-```
-
-### 🛡️ Pre-Push Supply Chain Protection
-
-Catch hallucinated imports and ghost packages before code ever reaches your remote:
-
-```bash
-npx tribunal-kit hook       # Installs automated Git pre-push governance hook
-npx tribunal-kit guardrail  # Manually scans changes for phantom packages & // VERIFY tags
-```

-
-## 🏛️ The 4 Core Superpowers
-
-<div align="center" style="margin: 25px 0 35px 0;">
-  <img src="docs/assets/superpowers-grid.svg" alt="The 4 Core Superpowers of Tribunal Kit" width="100%" style="max-width: 1200px; border-radius: 14px;" />
-</div>
-
-### 1. ⚖️ Supreme Court Case Law & Memory (`tk case`)
-
-**Your AI will never make the same mistake twice.** Whenever your coding assistant introduces an antipattern or bug, record it as a legal precedent:
-
-```bash
-# Add an AI mistake precedent
-tk case add
-
-# Search case law database
-tk case search "postgres deadlock"
-```
-
-The `precedence-reviewer` actively checks this database during generation. If the agent attempts the same antipattern, Tribunal Kit rules it unconstitutional and blocks the write.
-
-### 2. 🛡️ Phantom Package & Schema Guardrails (`tk guardrail`)
-
-AI models frequently hallucinate libraries that sound plausible but do not exist, exposing developers to **AI Package Hallucination Exploits (Slopsquatting)**:
-
-```bash
-# Scan workspace changes for unverified dependencies and // VERIFY tags
-npx tribunal-kit guardrail
-```
-
-### 3. 🧬 SkillOpt: Autonomous Self-Evolution Engine
-
-Stop manually re-prompting. SkillOpt mutates, token-checks, and benchmarks instruction skills directly against real test harnesses:
-
-```bash
-# Optimize a skill against a test harness
-tk optimize-skill --target ./skills/auth-security.md "npm run test:auth" --epochs 5 --candidates 3
-```
-
-- **Proposal Generation**: The LLM suggests micro-patches for instruction files.
-- **Rust Deduplication**: Normalized Levenshtein similarity (default `0.85`) filters redundant proposals.
-- **Genetic Promotion**: Passing harness tests promote winning candidates as the new baseline.
-
-### 4. ⚡ Compiled Rust Core (`tribunal-core`)
-
-Heavy computation is delegated to a native Rust binary:
-
-- **Zero-Latency Hash Manifests**: File synchronization uses SHA-256 incremental hash diffs, speeding up CLI sync by **95%**.
-- **Semaphore-Bounded Parallelism**: Fully concurrent thread pools (64 in Rust, 32 in Node.js) eliminate resource starvation in massive monorepos.

-<!-- PIPELINE MERMAID -->
-
-## ⚖️ The Tribunal Pipeline — Mitigating AI Code Hallucinations
-
-Code generation is solved. **Code correctness is the frontier.**
-
-The Tribunal Pipeline intercepts raw agent generation and routes it through a parallel suite of **28 domain-specific reviewers** before presenting changes to the developer:

-<!-- SOVEREIGN CONTRACTS -->
-
-## 📜 Sovereign Covenant Protocol — Behavioral Contract Testing (`tk contract`)
-
-Declare repo invariants in declarative YAML rules stored in `.tribunal/contracts/`:
-
-```yaml
-name: 'No console.log in production code'
-scope: 'src/**/*.ts, src/**/*.tsx'
-severity: block
-must_not:
-  - pattern: 'console.log'
-    message: 'Use structured logger instead of console.log'
-```
-
-```bash
-# Scaffold starter contracts
-npx tribunal-kit contract init
-
-# Verify contract invariants against modified files
-npx tribunal-kit contract verify
-
-# Replay failure trace snapshot
-npx tribunal-kit contract replay <trace_id>

+
+## 🛡️ Value Proposition
+
+AI coding assistants frequently hallucinate dependencies, deprecated framework hooks, and incorrect database columns. Linters and typecheckers catch these errors only *after* the code is written, failing to understand semantic intent during generation.
+
+Tribunal Kit acts as a **neurosymbolic verification envelope**. It intercepts AI output locally in **&lt; 10ms**, validates it against your live repository AST, and prevents hallucinated code and phantom packages from ever touching your disk. 
+
+---
+
+## ⚡ Core Capabilities
+
+- **Parallel Review Pipeline:** 29 domain-specific reviewers analyze generated code simultaneously before the write operation.
+- **Compiled Rust Core:** Sub-10ms AST parsing, semantic graph extraction, and file synchronization using SHA-256 diffs.
+- **Phantom Package Guardrails:** Blocks "slopsquatting" and non-existent npm package imports during generation.
+- **Cross-Session Memory:** "Supreme Court Case Law" (`tk case`) records past AI mistakes so they are never repeated across sessions.
+- **Subagent-Driven Development (SDD):** Orchestrates multi-agent fan-out and synthesis, strictly isolating context windows to prevent token bloat.
+- **Minimal Dependencies:** The Node.js CLI runtime requires almost zero production dependencies, protecting your supply chain.
+- **Native MCP Server:** Exposes real-time repository AST and team contract rules to Model Context Protocol compatible clients.
+
+---
+
+## 🏗️ Architecture Overview
+
+Tribunal Kit operates as a fast, intercepting middleware layer between the AI generation event and the local filesystem.

+```
+
+### Data Flow
+
+1. **Input:** An LLM agent generates a code change proposal (or triggers a workflow like `/generate`).
+2. **Processing:** The Rust Core extracts the current AST and validates the semantic bounds. The proposal is dispatched to parallel Reviewers (e.g., `logic-reviewer`, `security-auditor`).
+3. **Output:** If valid, it passes to the Human Gate or writes directly to disk. If invalid, the process is halted, and feedback is fed back into the agent's context loop.
+
+---
+
+## 🚀 Installation & Quick Start
+
+Install Tribunal Kit in your project directory. Node.js >= 18.0.0 is required.
+
+```bash
+# 1. Initialize Tribunal Kit in your repository
+npx tribunal-kit init
+
+# 2. Sync rules with your local IDE (Cursor, Windsurf, VS Code)
+npx tribunal-kit sync
+
+# 3. Verify repository health and active rules
+npx tribunal-kit status
+```
+
+**Using a CLI Agent?**
+Install the native adapter for Claude Code or Aider:
+```bash
+npx tribunal-kit tk-adapt claude
+# or
+npx tribunal-kit tk-adapt aider
+```
+
+---
+
+## 💻 Usage Guide & CLI Reference
+
+Tribunal Kit CLI operations are routed through the compiled Rust binary when supported, falling back to the JavaScript engine gracefully.
+
+| Command | Arguments | Description |
+| :--- | :--- | :--- |
+| `init` | `[--force]` | Initializes the `.agent/` configuration payload. |
+| `sync` | — | Syncs rules with IDEs (.cursorrules, .windsurfrules). |
+| `status` | — | Evaluates workspace rules and checks for violations. |
+| `guardrail` | `[--file <path>]` | Scans changes for phantom packages and `// VERIFY` tags. |
+| `tk-adapt` | `[claude\|aider\|--global]` | Installs universal CLI agent adapters. |
+| `hook` | — | Installs the automated Git pre-push governance hook. |
+| `memory` | `store \| recall \| gc` | Manages persistent cross-session AI memory. |
+| `case` | `add \| search <q>` | Records or searches for AI mistake precedents. |
+
+*(For workflow execution, Tribunal Kit monitors for slash commands like `/orchestrate`, `/audit`, or `/deploy` inside your AI context).*
+
+---
+
+## ⚙️ Configuration Reference
+
+Tribunal Kit is largely zero-config, driven by the `.agent/` directory, but exposes settings via `mcp_config.json` and `package.json`.
+
+**Example MCP Configuration (`mcp_config.json`)**
+```json
+{
+  "mcpServers": {
+    "tribunal-kit": {
+      "command": "node",
+      "args": [".agent/scripts/mcp_server.js"],
+      "env": { "NODE_ENV": "production" }
+    }
+  }
+}
+```

+
+## 🔒 Security and Reliability
+
+- **Strict Sandboxing:** Tribunal Kit executes entirely locally. It does not phone home, exfiltrate data, or execute arbitrary remote binaries.
+- **Zero Dependencies:** The production NPM distribution is meticulously engineered to have zero external dependencies, entirely neutralizing downstream supply-chain attacks.
+- **Memory Boundaries:** Context provided to agents is strictly bounded by the `context_broker`, preventing context overflow and reducing token hallucination vectors.
+
+---
+
+## 🧪 Testing and Quality
+
+Tribunal Kit employs rigorous continuous integration.
+
+```bash
+# Run payload validation and the Jest test suite
+npm run test:all
+
+# Run the Rust core test suite
+npm run test:rust
+```
+
+The validation pipeline enforces `validate-payload.js` checks to ensure every specialist agent, workflow, and skill definition conforms to the strict schema before compilation.
+
+---
+
+## ⚡ Performance
+
+By offloading AST evaluation and file hashing to the `tribunal-core` Rust binary, Tribunal Kit achieves:
+- **Sub-10ms** execution overhead for the `guardrail` and `sync` commands.
+- Up to **95% faster** context validation compared to standard Node.js implementations traversing large monorepos.
+
