+## 🚀 What's New in v5.0
+
+### Git Repository Integration for Agents & Skills
+
+Claude MPM now supports **Git repositories** for distributing and managing agents and skills - the most requested feature from our community!
+
+**🎯 Key Highlights:**
+- **📦 Massive Library**: 47+ agents and hundreds of skills deployed automatically from curated repositories
+- **🏢 Official Content**: Anthropic's official skills repository included by default
+- **🔧 Fully Extensible**: Add your own agent/skill repositories with immediate testing
+- **🌳 Smart Organization**: Hierarchical BASE-AGENT.md inheritance for shared templates
+- **📊 Clear Visibility**: Two-phase progress bars show sync and deployment status
+- **✅ Fail-Fast Testing**: Test repositories before they cause startup issues
+
+#### Quick Start: Add Your Own Repository
+
+```bash
+# Add custom agent repository (with immediate testing)
+claude-mpm agent-source add https://github.com/yourorg/your-agents
+
+# Add custom skill repository
+claude-mpm skill-source add https://github.com/yourorg/your-skills
+
+# Test repository without saving
+claude-mpm agent-source add https://github.com/yourorg/your-agents --test
+
+# List all configured sources
+claude-mpm agent-source list
+```
+
+#### Default Repositories
+
+**Agents** (47+ agents):
+- 🏢 System: `bobmatnyc/claude-mpm-agents` - Core agent templates
+
+**Skills** (hundreds of skills):
+- 🏢 System: `bobmatnyc/claude-mpm-skills` - Community skills
+- 🎯 Official: `anthropics/skills` - Anthropic's official skills (14+ skills)
+
+**What This Means:**
+- ✅ **Automatic Setup**: Everything deploys on first run
+- ✅ **Always Updated**: Git repositories sync on startup
+- ✅ **Nested Support**: Repositories with subdirectories are automatically flattened
+- ✅ **Template Inheritance**: BASE-AGENT.md files cascade from parent directories
+- ✅ **Priority System**: Control which sources win when multiple repos provide the same agent/skill
+
+#### Hierarchical Organization Example
+
+Support for BASE-AGENT.md enables powerful template inheritance:
+
+```
+your-agents/
+  BASE-AGENT.md              # Root shared content (all agents inherit)
+  engineering/
+    BASE-AGENT.md            # Engineering-specific (engineering/* agents inherit)
+    python/
+      fastapi-engineer.md    # Inherits both BASE files
+```
+
+See [docs/features/hierarchical-base-agents.md](docs/features/hierarchical-base-agents.md) for complete guide.

+
+## Cache Management
+
+Claude MPM maintains a local cache of agent templates at `~/.claude-mpm/cache/remote-agents/`.
+
+### Cache Structure
+
+```
+~/.claude-mpm/cache/remote-agents/
+└── bobmatnyc/
+    └── claude-mpm-agents/
+        ├── .git/              # Git repository
+        ├── agents/            # 45+ agent templates
+        └── docs/
+```
+
+### Git Workflow (Optional)
+
+If your cache is a git repository, you can manage agents with git operations:
+
+```bash
+# Check cache status
+claude-mpm agents cache-status
+
+# Pull latest agents
+claude-mpm agents cache-pull
+
+# Commit local changes
+claude-mpm agents cache-commit --message "feat: update agents"
+
+# Push changes
+claude-mpm agents cache-push
+
+# Full sync workflow
+claude-mpm agents cache-sync
+```
+
+**Or use Makefile targets:**
+
+```bash
+make agents-cache-status   # Show git status
+make agents-cache-pull     # Pull latest
+make agents-cache-sync     # Full sync (pull + commit + push)
+make deploy-agents         # Deploy with auto-pull
+```
+
+### HTTP Sync Fallback
+
+If cache is not a git repository, Claude MPM automatically falls back to HTTP sync with GitHub API.
+
+### Migration from Legacy Cache
+
+If you have an old `cache/agents/` directory, run the migration script:
+
+```bash
+python scripts/migrate_cache_to_remote_agents.py
+```
+
+**See also:** [docs/CACHE_MANAGEMENT.md](docs/CACHE_MANAGEMENT.md) for comprehensive cache management guide.

+
+## Managing Agent & Skill Repositories
+
+Claude MPM uses **Git repositories** to distribute and manage agents and skills. This provides automatic updates, version control, and easy sharing of agent/skill libraries.
+
+### Quick Start
+
+```bash
+# Add custom agent repository
+claude-mpm agent-source add https://github.com/yourorg/your-agents
+
+# Add custom skill repository
+claude-mpm skill-source add https://github.com/yourorg/your-skills
+
+# Test repository without saving (fail-fast validation)
+claude-mpm agent-source add https://github.com/yourorg/your-agents --test
+
+# List configured sources
+claude-mpm agent-source list
+claude-mpm skill-source list
+
+# Update from all sources
+claude-mpm agent-source update
+claude-mpm skill-source update
+```
+
+### Priority System
+
+When multiple sources provide the same agent/skill, priority controls which one wins:
+
+- **Lower number = Higher precedence** (priority 10 beats priority 100)
+- **Local agents/skills** (`.claude-mpm/agents/`, `.claude-mpm/skills/`) always override
+- **System defaults** provide fallback
+
+**Example Configuration:**
+
+```yaml
+# ~/.claude-mpm/config/agent_sources.yaml
+repositories:
+  - url: https://github.com/myteam/agents
+    priority: 10    # Highest precedence (custom agents)
+
+  - url: https://github.com/bobmatnyc/claude-mpm-agents
+    priority: 100   # System default (official agents)
+```
+
+### Hierarchical Organization with BASE-AGENT.md
+
+Support for BASE-AGENT.md enables powerful template inheritance:
+
+```
+your-agents/
+  BASE-AGENT.md              # Root shared content (all agents inherit)
+  engineering/
+    BASE-AGENT.md            # Engineering-specific (engineering/* inherit)
+    python/
+      fastapi-engineer.md    # Inherits both BASE files
+      django-engineer.md     # Inherits both BASE files
+    rust/
+      systems-engineer.md    # Inherits both BASE files
+```
+
+**How It Works:**
+1. **Cascading Inheritance**: Each agent inherits from all BASE-AGENT.md files in parent directories
+2. **Automatic Flattening**: Nested repositories are automatically flattened during deployment
+3. **DRY Templates**: Share common instructions across related agents
+4. **Maintainability**: Update shared content in one place
+
+See [docs/features/hierarchical-base-agents.md](docs/features/hierarchical-base-agents.md) for complete guide.
+
+### Configuration via YAML
+
+Edit configuration files directly:
+- **Agents**: `~/.claude-mpm/config/agent_sources.yaml`
+- **Skills**: `~/.claude-mpm/config/skill_sources.yaml`
+
+**Example agent_sources.yaml:**
+
+```yaml
+repositories:
+  - url: https://github.com/bobmatnyc/claude-mpm-agents
+    priority: 100
+    enabled: true
+
+  - url: https://github.com/yourorg/custom-agents
+    priority: 10
+    enabled: true
+```
 
+### Benefits

+### Documentation
+
+- **[Agent Sources User Guide](docs/user/agent-sources.md)** - Complete guide with examples
+- **[CLI Reference](docs/reference/cli-agent-source.md)** - All `agent-source` commands
+- **[Hierarchical BASE-AGENT.md](docs/features/hierarchical-base-agents.md)** - Template inheritance guide
+- **[Migration Guide](docs/migration/agent-sources-git-default-v4.5.0.md)** - Upgrading from v4.4.x
+- **[Troubleshooting](docs/user/troubleshooting.md#agent-source-issues)** - Common issues and solutions
+
+## Skills Deployment
+
+Skills are automatically deployed from Git repositories, just like agents. Claude MPM includes **hundreds of skills** from curated repositories:
+
+- **System Skills**: Community skills from `bobmatnyc/claude-mpm-skills`
+- **Official Skills**: Anthropic's official skills from `anthropics/skills`
+- **Custom Skills**: Add your own skill repositories
+
+### Quick Usage
+
+```bash
+# Skills are automatically deployed on first run
+# No manual deployment needed!
+
+# Add custom skill repository
+claude-mpm skill-source add https://github.com/yourorg/custom-skills
+
+# List configured skill sources
+claude-mpm skill-source list
+
+# Update skills from all sources
+claude-mpm skill-source update
+```
+
+### How Skills Work
+
+1. **Automatic Deployment**: All skills from configured repositories deploy on startup
+2. **Three-Tier Organization**:
+   - **Bundled**: System and official skills (hundreds)
+   - **User**: Custom skills in `~/.config/claude-mpm/skills/`
+   - **Project**: Project-specific skills in `.claude-mpm/skills/`
+3. **Priority Resolution**: Project → User → Bundled (local always wins)
+4. **Auto-Linking**: Skills automatically linked to relevant agents
