+## First Time? Start Here!
+
+**Ready to try Kernel but don't see any apps yet?** Perfect! Here's how to get started:
+
+### Step 1: Install Kernel MCP Server
+
+Install the Kernel MCP server to your favorite MCP client using the [setup instructions](#setup-instructions) below.
+
+### Step 2: Ask Your AI Assistant for Help
+
+Once connected, simply ask in your MCP client chat:
+
+```
+"How do I get a Kernel sample app set up locally?"
+```
+
+Your AI assistant will use the `search_docs` tool to get you the latest quickstart instructions and guide you through setting up your first Kernel app!
+
+### Step 3: Deploy & Test with MCP Tools
+
+After you have a sample app locally, ask your assistant:
+
+```
+"Deploy my sample app to Kernel"
+```
+
+Then test it:
+
+```
+"Run my app and get the title from onkernel.com"
+```
+
+### Why This Approach?
+
+- ✅ **Always up-to-date** - Your AI assistant fetches the latest docs
+- ✅ **Interactive guidance** - Get help customized to your setup  
+- ✅ **Learn MCP tools** - Experience the power of `search_docs`, `deploy_app`, and `invoke_action`
+- ✅ **End-to-end workflow** - From local development to cloud deployment to execution
+
+### What You'll Experience
+
+Your AI assistant will help you:
+- Download and understand sample apps (`search_docs`)
+- Deploy your local code to the cloud (`deploy_app`)  
+- Run actions and see results (`invoke_action`)
+- Create browser sessions in the cloud (`create_browser`)
+- Monitor deployments (`list_deployments`, `get_deployment`)

 ## Setup Instructions
 
-Remote MCP connections are still early and we've found that the connection may fail or require multiple attempts. If you experience issues, try restarting your client or disabling and re-enabling the Kernel MCP server.
+Add the Kernel MCP server to your favorite MCP-compatible client using `https://mcp.onkernel.com/mcp`. Here are setup instructions for popular clients:

 ## FAQ
 
 **Is the server open source?**
 
-Yes — the source code is available [here](https://github.com/onkernel/kernel-mcp-server). You're welcome to self-host, contribute, or just browse.
+Yes — the source code is available [here](https://github.com/onkernel/kernel-mcp-server). You're welcome to self-host, contribute, or browse the code.
 
 **Does Kernel store my data?**
 
-For the MCP server, only encrypted refresh tokens and minimal metadata required for auth. For information about we handle data for our managed services, see our [Privacy Policy](/privacy).
+Only encrypted refresh tokens and minimal metadata required for auth; browser state lives in your Kernel organization and never leaves your tenancy.
 
-**What scopes are required?**
+**What if the handshake fails?**
 
-`browser.session`, `dom.read`, and `js.eval` by default. Narrow scopes in your client during OAuth.
+Restart your MCP client or disable/re-enable the Kernel server before opening a support ticket. Most connection issues resolve with a simple restart.
