README checked against the tree by running every example (closes #22)

Every example in the README was run as written with the published test mnemonic and behaved as the README says, so no sentence changed. The only edit removes the landed work from the TODO section, which now lists the two open owner decisions.

Disclosures:
- `ssh install` and `ssh to` were run by the implementer against a throwaway local `sshd`; the reviewer could not repeat that run and checked those sections by reading the code.
- The child mnemonic vector is reachable only through the test suite and was confirmed there.

Model: opus-4-8 (implementation, review); fable-5-1 (merge message)

 # keyfunc
 
-`keyfunc` turns a BIP-39 mnemonic into key pairs that can be recreated from
-that mnemonic at any time. The same mnemonic, key type and index always give the
-same key.
+`keyfunc` is a Go command-line tool by [@sneak](https://sneak.berlin) — its
+license is not yet chosen
+([#14](https://git.eeqj.de/sneak/keyfunc/issues/14)) — that turns a BIP-39
+mnemonic into SSH keys, age identities and child mnemonics, each of which can be
+recreated from that mnemonic at any time. The same mnemonic, key type and index
+always give the same key.
 
 It uses the BIP-85 entropy deriver from `git.eeqj.de/sneak/secret/pkg/bip85` and
 takes the same steps as that repository's `agehd` package.
 
-Commands are grouped by what is derived: `keyfunc ssh ...` for ed25519 SSH
-keys, `keyfunc age ...` for age identities and for encrypting and decrypting
-with them, and `keyfunc mnemonic ...` for child mnemonics derived from the
-main one.
+Commands are grouped by what is derived: `keyfunc ssh ...` for ed25519 SSH keys,
+`keyfunc age ...` for age identities and for encrypting and decrypting with
+them, and `keyfunc mnemonic ...` for child mnemonics derived from the main one.
+
+## Getting Started
+
+Build from a clone and run the binary:
+
+```
+git clone git@git.eeqj.de:sneak/keyfunc.git
+cd keyfunc
+make build
+./keyfunc --version
+```
+
+`make build` produces `./keyfunc`. Every deriving command needs a mnemonic; see
+[Giving it the mnemonic](#giving-it-the-mnemonic) for where it is read from, then
+for example:
+
+```
+./keyfunc ssh pub -n 0 --mnemonic-command 'secret get foo'
+```
+
+## Rationale
+
+A key you can derive again never has to be backed up. One mnemonic, kept safe
+once, stands behind every key this tool produces: lose a laptop and the SSH key,
+the age identity and any child mnemonic on it come back from the mnemonic alone,
+at the same index, byte for byte. Nothing else has to be written down, copied
+between machines, or stored in a secret manager, because it can always be
+derived again.
+
+## Design
+
+The entry point is a thin `cmd/keyfunc/main.go` (what `make build` builds) that
+calls into `internal/`. The packages there are:
+
+- `internal/derive` turns a mnemonic into the 32 bytes a key is made from: it
+  walks BIP-39 seed, BIP-32 master key and BIP-85 entropy, and holds the shared
+  constants (the byte count and the largest key index).
+- `internal/mnemonic` finds the mnemonic to work from — a command, an
+  environment variable, or a terminal prompt — and refuses one that fails the
+  BIP-39 checksum.
+- `internal/sshkey` turns the derived bytes into an ed25519 SSH key
+  (`sshkey.go`) and serves that key from an in-process SSH agent on a private
+  unix socket, keeping it out of any file (`agent.go`).
+- `internal/agekey` turns the derived bytes into an age identity and encrypts
+  and decrypts with it.
+- `internal/childmnemonic` derives a child mnemonic from the main one using
+  BIP-85's own mnemonic application.
+- `internal/cli` builds the cobra command tree and runs it. Under it,
+  `cli/options` holds the flags every command shares, and `cli/ssh`, `cli/age`
+  and `cli/mnemonic` are the command groups.
+
+### Adding a key type
+
+Adding a key type is one package under `internal/` that turns the 32 derived
+bytes into that type's key, plus one cobra subcommand under `internal/cli/` that
+groups its commands.

 ## Errors
 
 Errors go to standard error and the exit status is 1, except for `ssh to`,
 which passes through `ssh`'s own exit status.
 
-## Building and running
+## Entrypoints
 
-```
-make build    # produces ./keyfunc
-make check    # fmt-check, lint (golangci-lint) and tests
-```
+The repo adheres to the
+[Scripts to Rule Them All](https://github.com/github/scripts-to-rule-them-all)
+standard: most Makefile targets are thin shims over an executable in
+`script/` (`build` and `clean` are the exceptions).
 
-Examples:
+- `script/bootstrap` installs everything needed to build and develop (git, make,
+  Go), idempotently, from nix, apt, brew or apk; it does not install the linter,
+  which only runs inside Docker.
+- `script/setup` prepares a fresh clone: it runs `bootstrap`, then installs the
+  git pre-commit hook.
+- `script/projectname` prints the project name; other scripts call it so they
+  stay identical across repos.
+- `script/test` runs `go vet` and then the test suite, rerunning verbosely if a
+  test fails.
+- `script/lint` runs the linter inside the image built from `Dockerfile.lint`
+  (which pins the linter by hash), so a complaint fails the build and leaves no
+  container behind.
+- `script/fmt` formats the Go source in place.
+- `script/fmt-check` checks that formatting without writing, failing if anything
+  is unformatted.
+- `script/check` runs `test`, `lint` and `fmt-check` and changes no files.
+- `script/docker` builds the Docker image tagged with the project name.
+- `script/cibuild` is the CI build the Gitea workflow calls: it runs the linter,
+  then `docker build`.
+- `script/precommit` is what the git pre-commit hook runs: `go mod tidy` and
+  `go fmt`, failing if `go.mod` or `go.sum` changed, then `check`.
+- `script/install-precommit` installs the git pre-commit hook that runs
+  `script/precommit`.

+
+The open issues that stand between the tree and a 1.0 release:
+
+- [#14 Choose a license and add LICENSE](https://git.eeqj.de/sneak/keyfunc/issues/14)
+- [#15 Decide the Go module path before 1.0](https://git.eeqj.de/sneak/keyfunc/issues/15)
+
+## License
+
+Not yet chosen. The license is the owner's decision, still open on the tracker
+([#14](https://git.eeqj.de/sneak/keyfunc/issues/14)); the `LICENSE` file is added
+when that issue is answered.
