 # OpenClaude
 
-OpenClaude is an open-source coding-agent CLI that works with more than one model provider.
+OpenClaude is an open-source coding-agent CLI for cloud and local model providers.
 
-Use OpenAI-compatible APIs, Gemini, GitHub Models, Codex, Ollama, Atomic Chat, and other supported backends while keeping the same terminal-first workflow: prompts, tools, agents, MCP, slash commands, and streaming output.
+Use OpenAI-compatible APIs, Gemini, GitHub Models, Codex, Ollama, Atomic Chat, and other supported backends while keeping one terminal-first workflow: prompts, tools, agents, MCP, slash commands, and streaming output.
 
-## Why OpenClaude
-
-- Use one CLI across cloud and local model providers
-- Save provider profiles inside the app with `/provider`
-- Run locally with Ollama or Atomic Chat
-- Keep core coding-agent workflows: bash, file tools, grep, glob, agents, tasks, MCP, and web tools
-
-## Provenance & Legal Notice
-
-OpenClaude is derived from Anthropic's Claude Code CLI source code, which was
-inadvertently exposed in March 2026 through a packaging error in npm. The
-original Claude Code source is proprietary software owned by Anthropic PBC.
-
-This project adds multi-provider support, strips telemetry, and adapts the
-codebase for open use. It is not an authorized fork or open-source release
-by Anthropic.

 ## What Works
 
-- Tool-driven coding workflows
-  Bash, file read/write/edit, grep, glob, agents, tasks, MCP, and slash commands
-- Streaming responses
-  Real-time token output and tool progress
-- Tool calling
-  Multi-step tool loops with model calls, tool execution, and follow-up responses
-- Images
-  URL and base64 image inputs for providers that support vision
-- Provider profiles
-  Guided setup plus saved `.openclaude-profile.json` support
-- Local and remote model backends
-  Cloud APIs, local servers, and Apple Silicon local inference

-### How It Works
-
-- **agentModels**: Maps model names to OpenAI-compatible API endpoints
-- **agentRouting**: Maps agent types or team member names to model names
-- **Priority**: `name` > `subagent_type` > `"default"` > global provider
-- **Matching**: Case-insensitive, hyphen/underscore equivalent (`general-purpose` = `general_purpose`)
-- **Teams**: Team members are routed by their `name` — no extra config needed
-
-When no routing match is found, the global provider (env vars) is used as fallback.
