[EVMCOD]

What and why

The README opened with "Python + SQLite backend, native macOS app (Tauri)" and, a few lines down, a table of BRAIN_PROVIDER / ANTHROPIC_API_KEY variables. Someone arriving from a launch page (Product Hunt, Show HN) should first see what the app is and how to get it.

New top of the README:

• one line: "Your notes, searchable and askable, on your own computer. Free and open source (MIT).";
• the notes home screenshot, and a paragraph on what it does (search, ask with sources, local, your own model and key, works without a key);
• Download table: macOS (signed, notarized, updates itself; browser needs macOS 14), Linux AppImage/.deb (beta, tested on Ubuntu 22.04 and 24.04), Windows setup.exe (beta, not code-signed, with the SmartScreen steps: More info → Run anyway). All four links answer 200;
• The first minute: choose the folder, ask or search, optionally add a key; two screenshots (ask, search);
• And beyond your notes: the agent team, connectors (keychain only, so macOS or Linux with a keyring), MCP both ways (tools in the app; ops mcp from a source install), backups, learning from 👍/👎.

Everything technical moves under For developers, unchanged except the old "macOS app" install paragraph, which the download table replaces.

The screenshots (docs/screenshots/, ~1.2 MB) come from a fictional demo vault on a fresh install with no key; the paths shown are a made-up user's. They show the behaviour of #83 (the no-key answer quoting the decision, the dark theme): merge #83 first.

How it was tested

• tests/test_macos_minimum.py and tests/test_portability_doc.py (both read the README) pass.
• Download links checked with curl -I -L: 200 for the four.
• The PNGs contain no local paths or user names (strings).

Checklist

• No code changes.
• No personal data and no secrets.
