docs(readme): a reader who only wanted the manual had no reference to jump to - #192
Merged
Conversation
The pitch, the pastiches and the three benchmark tables went. What remains is a plain user's guide: numbered sections, imperative steps, active voice, short sentences, no marketing adjective, and the benchmark claims point at docs/EVALS.md. The banner, the badges and the release title stay. Every machine-checked anchor survives, because fifteen gates parse this file: 179 long flags advertised, 49 repositories and 70 papers, the 2026 recency counts, the marked 602 gate count, the --max-tokens=3000 start-here line, the nine ripwire wrap rows, the callers example rows, 31 MCP verbs, 34 slides, and the three tokens the README alone carries (--scan-skillsdir, --code-only, --no-cluster). readmedriftcheck, readmeexamplecheck, manifestcheck, gatecountcheck, deckcheck, deckclaimcheck, agenttablecheck, mcpverbscheck, floormarkcheck, emittertruthcheck, ripwirepubliccheck, cudacheck, metalcheck, skillinstallcheck and docscommandscheck all pass on the result.
… to jump to PR #168 from @heliocipher rewrote the front page as a numbered user's guide in controlled English: install, commands, output format, exit codes, limits, one instruction per sentence. As a reference it is the page this README did not have. The long form makes the case for the tool across 2,050 lines, and a reader who only wanted the flags had to scroll through all of it with nothing to jump to. The long form stays. Every line of the README on main, with #181's call for help applied, is kept in order. Their guide joins it as `## Reference guide`, above Documentation and Licence so the licence stays last, and a two-line pointer under the lede jumps to it. Fitting it into one page took three structural edits to their text and nothing else: - Their title, banner and badge row are dropped. A second page header cannot sit mid-page. - Their headings drop one level (## to ###, ### to ####), numbering kept. No new slug collides with an existing anchor, and every in-page link resolves to the heading it resolved to before. - Their two marked "602 gate scripts" lines lose the number and the marker. The count is a generator-owned build product with one README site: a second marked copy is a second site, an unmarked number is refused by docs/gatecount_build.py, and 602 was already three behind the loop. Factual corrections to the guide land in the next commit, so each one is reviewable on its own. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
…laces Checked against ./build/ripwire --help and --help=all, the live output, and the source each claim describes. Five places described something the binary does not do. Each now says what it does, and every other sentence of the guide stays word for word. - 3.1 said the installer registers hooks when passed `--hook`. scripts/install.sh parses no arguments and never registers hooks; `--hook` belongs to the staged skills/install.sh, as INSTALL.md says. - 6.1 printed an opening tag the binary does not emit: six attributes were missing (hop_tested, hop_untested, graph_ambiguous, graph_unresolved, graph_unindexed, next). It is the live tag now. The six rows under it were already exact. - 7 said `--callers` counts distinct caller and callee pairs. The callers legend counts distinct symbols. Pairs are the map header's edges=, a different unit. - 7 said a missing or corrupt `--scip` index refuses. A missing one does (exit 1, src/main.cpp). A corrupt one proceeds name-based with a line on stderr (src/scip.h). - 13 placed the graphify 0.9.34 `--code-only --no-cluster` run in docs/EVALS.md section 2. That section holds the earlier graphifyy 0.9.15 round; the 0.9.34 run is bench/headtohead/r4-2026-08-06/. Not changed here, because the long form is not this commit's to edit: `--help=--scip` and the README's own honesty section still say a missing index degrades, which the binary stopped doing.

…o dependency edge Its note read "`require` is a function call, not an import directive." Lua does spell it as a call, but in a table of what the tool does, that sentence says ripwire reads no dependency from it, and that stopped being true at kParserVer 81, in 0.6.0: a string-literal `require "a.b"` that names exactly one file in the tree is a dependency edge. test/luarequirecheck.sh carries the contract, and test/luacheck.sh's section 2 was inverted to assert it. The row now says both halves. docs/ARCHITECTURE.md's Lua paragraph still says a .lua file is never a node in the --deps graph. It is the same stale sentence, left for its own commit.

… measured Section 13's table put a cold parse and answer at "about 0.7 s on an Apple M-series host" on a "1,900-file tree", and a warm run at "about 0.11 s". No file in the tree names a tree of that size, and neither figure appears in docs/, bench/, test/ or the CHANGELOG. Both rows now link to the README's own measurement of this repository, "Where its own cycles go", which carries the instrument, the host and the reproduce steps, instead of restating a number from it. The table's third row, the cache load at about 167 times fewer instructions, is measured in that same section on that same tree, so its "The same tree" still holds and the row is untouched. Every other sentence of the guide stays word for word, the MSVC 19.36+ compiler row included: it matches the Quickstart until a separate Windows decision.

…eordered Main moved on under this branch: #183 put the call for help below the quality panel, and #178, #184, #185, #186 and #187 landed beside it. The merge is clean; README.md auto-merged with no conflict. The guide's promise is re-proved against the new main rather than carried over from the old one. Every one of origin/main 8c80566's 2,051 README lines is present, in order, in the merged 2,573: a line-by-line subsequence walk agrees with `diff`, which shows five append hunks, 522 added lines and 0 deleted. All 29 in-page links resolve to a heading, #reference-guide and section 13's new link included. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

In `@README.md`:
- Line 2092: Update the RIPWIRE_REPO installer command to download the installer
from an immutable commit, verify the downloaded script’s checksum or signature,
and execute only the verified local file instead of piping the mutable
main-branch content directly to bash.
- Around line 2074-2078: Update the README build-tools and compiler entries to
remove MSVC 19.36+, leaving only the supported macOS and Linux compiler
requirements. Do not add Windows support or alter unrelated platform
documentation.
- Line 2178: Update the README section describing the ripwire --listen option to
state that non-loopback MCP deployments must use a TLS-protected reverse proxy,
since the socket serves cleartext HTTP with bearer-token authentication and
exposed tokens can be captured and replayed, including remote edit requests when
--allow-remote-edits is enabled.

… socket carries no TLS CodeRabbit on #192: --listen serves plain HTTP with a bearer token, so a non-loopback bind sends the token and every request in the clear. The guide now says so and names the fix, a TLS-terminating reverse proxy. That matches --help, which already reads 'No TLS — reverse-proxy it.' The change is additive: one sentence appended inside the guide's own paragraph. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Adds a reference guide at the bottom of the README. It is a numbered, plain-language manual covering install, first use, command families, output format, accuracy and disclosure rules, determinism, agent integration, languages, limits and more. A short pointer near the top sends readers who just want the manual straight there.
The guide is @heliocipher's, from #168. Their commit is merged here, not copied or squashed, so it stays in the history under their name. #168 rewrote the whole front page. The README serves several quite different readers, so the guide goes in added, not replacing: every existing line of the README is still here, in the same order.
