- Reduced README from 646 lines to 94 lines (85% reduction) - Focused on 3 essential questions developers care about: 1. What does this do for me? (10x productivity with parallel AI agents) 2. How do I install it? (60-second one-liner) 3. How does it work? (simple 3-step process) - Moved detailed content to organized docs/ structure - Created comprehensive documentation index - Maintained marketing elements for project growth The new README is scannable, action-oriented, and gets developers started in seconds instead of overwhelming them with details. 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.ai/code) Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>
- Replaced literal question headers with professional sections - 'The Problem' and 'The Solution' implicitly answer why developers should care - 'Quick Start' is more elegant than 'How Do I Install It?' - 'See It In Action' demonstrates the workflow naturally - Better narrative flow: Problem → Solution → Quick Start → Demo → Resources
