## Why
The problem it solves. Not what it is — why it exists.

## Configuration

Tone rules
- Clear and direct — no marketing language
- Concrete — real commands, real code, real output
- Honest about limitations or requirements
- A developer should understand the project in 60 seconds
What to avoid
- "Blazing fast", "seamless", "powerful", "robust"
- Long feature lists before showing any code
- Screenshots that aren't necessary
- Badges that don't add information
