-OneChat is a Go program. It prints its name. It is in early development.
-Linux is supported.
+OneChat is one AI agent in a single chat that never ends. A daemon owns
+the agent and its files, and a terminal client talks to it. It is in
+early development. Linux is supported.

+*******
+ Login
+*******
+
+The ``chatgpt`` endpoint needs a login with a ChatGPT account:
+
+.. code:: console
+
+   onechat login
+
+The command shows a link and a code. Open the link on any device, enter
+the code, and approve the login. Device code login must be allowed in
+the ChatGPT security settings. OneChat writes the tokens to
+``auth.json`` in the data directory, with mode 0600, and refreshes them
+before they expire. The file belongs to OneChat only. Do not share it
+with the Codex CLI, because each program rotates the refresh token and
+logs the other out.
+
+*******
+ Agent
+*******
+
+Start the daemon, and then the client in another terminal:
+
+.. code:: console
+
+   onechat daemon
+   onechat chat
+
+The daemon owns the root agent in ``agent/`` in the data directory and
+listens on the Unix socket ``onechat.sock`` there. In the client, each
+line is a message to the agent, the line ``/stop`` interrupts the
+running turn, and Ctrl-D ends the client. The client shows the replies,
+the tool calls, and the first lines of each tool result as they happen.
+The daemon is the only process that uses the token file while it runs,
+so ``onechat login`` and ``onechat probe`` refuse to start until it
+stops.
+
+The agent runs commands with bash as the user in its working directory,
+with no sandbox. It has the rights of the user, also on the token file.
+
+``agent/config.json`` holds the settings of the agent. The first start
+writes it with the defaults and a random ID. Do not change the ID: the
+prompt cache key comes from it.
+
+.. code:: json
+
+   {
+     "name": "OneChat",
+     "id": "0123456789abcdef0123456789abcdef",
+     "model": "gpt-6.1-sol",
+     "effort": "medium",
+     "workdir": "/home/user"
+   }
+
+``workdir`` is an absolute path, and its default is the home directory.
+``agent/instructions.md`` holds the user's instructions: who they are,
+how their files are organized, and how they want work done. The prompt
+ends with them, and a change applies at the next call.
+
+*******
+ Probe
+*******
+
+``onechat probe LOG COUNT [BUILDS]`` measures the compactor on a log. It
+appends the first COUNT messages of LOG, one JSON object ``{"kind",
+"text"}`` on each line, to a new chat in ``probe/`` in the data
+directory, and builds its tree with real model calls. The calls use the
+quota of the account. The run stops at the first failed call, after 660
+calls, or when the used percent of a quota window grows by more than 15
+points. At the end it reports the calls per message, the cached share of
+the input tokens, the retries, the line sizes, and the quota at the
+first and the last call. BUILDS, from 1 to 8, limits the model calls at
+once in the run.
+
+A test writes a generated log of readable made-up messages:
+
+.. code:: console
+
+   ONECHAT_PROBE_LOG=probe.jsonl go test -run TestProbeLogHasTheSyntheticMix
