Summary

  • Rewrites the CLI README from a reference doc into a launch-ready landing page

  • Adds the blue Castari logo SVG to assets/ for self-contained rendering on GitHub
  • Includes GIF placeholder comment with recording instructions for pre-launch

Test plan

  • Verify README renders correctly on GitHub (logo, badges, tables, code blocks)
  • Confirm all external links resolve (docs, dashboard, Discord, npm)
  • Review copy for accuracy against current CLI commands

P2 Badge Include project name in template init examples

The template quickstart rows use commands like cast init --template default, but init requires a positional project name, so copy/pasting these examples fails with Project name is required instead of scaffolding an agent. The CLI enforces this in initCommand with .argument('[name]') and an early if (!name) ... process.exit(1) check (packages/cli/src/commands/init.ts, lines 246-263), so the README should document cast init <name> --template <template>.

Replace @castari/sdk section with a "Build Your Agent" section showing
how to build with the Claude Agent SDK and deploy with Castari. Remove
E2B and Daytona mentions from intro, diagram, and footer.

CLAUDE.md is a convention in the starter templates, not a Castari
requirement. The only required file is castari.json. Updated all
references to accurately describe the agent structure.

Replace raw Anthropic SDK example (client.messages.create) with the
real Claude Agent SDK (query from @anthropic-ai/claude-agent-sdk).

platform.claude.com/docs/en/agent-sdk/overview, not the old

Add a callout after the Install section pointing users to the
/castari-deploy skill as a faster alternative to manual setup.

Lead with the two core differentiators:
- Agents get their own computer (real filesystem, shell, packages)
- Isolated sandboxes eliminate risk to local machines

Reinforced in the "How It Works" steps.

Shift from developer/coding-agent framing to the primary use case:
building agents that serve end users. Native filesystem enables agents
to generate reports, process uploads, and deliver real files. Isolated
sandboxes mean each customer session is secure and independent.

pnpm/action-setup@v4 now reads the version from package.json's
packageManager field automatically. Having both causes a build error.
