Summary

  • Complete rewrite of README.md for production-quality open-source presentation
  • Hero section with npm badges, one-line install, and quick navigation
  • Copy-paste quick start example that runs immediately
  • Core concepts with diagrams: event stream, hosted tools, multi-turn memory, hooks
  • Built-in tools reference table, MCP integration, subagent delegation
  • Collapsible hook reference (19 SDK-native + 7 host-bridged)
  • Architecture tree, event reference table, development commands

Motivation

The previous README was written as internal engineering documentation. This rewrite targets external developers evaluating the SDK — it should convey "this is powerful, easy to use, and production-ready" within the first 10 seconds of reading.

Test plan

  • All markdown renders correctly on GitHub
  • Code examples are syntactically valid TypeScript
  • Quick start example is a complete, runnable program
  • All internal links point to existing files

Made with Cursor

Complete rewrite of README.md with production-quality presentation:
- Hero section with badges, install command, and navigation links
- Architecture diagram showing host/SDK relationship
- Feature comparison table (what it does vs what makes it different)
- Copy-paste quick start with full working example
- Core concepts section: event stream, hosted tools, multi-turn, hooks
- Built-in tools reference table
- MCP integration examples (stdio + HTTP)
- Subagent delegation overview
- Session management API showcase
- Collapsible hook reference (19 SDK-native + 7 host-bridged)
- Event reference table
- Repository architecture tree
- Development commands

Made-with: Cursor
- Hero banner: dark theme with gradient glow, circuit icon, feature pills
- Architecture diagram: host/SDK layered view with tools, runtime, providers
- Event flow timeline: visual stream event sequence with loop-back indicator
- Feature grid: 8-card layout covering all major capabilities
- Comparison chart: side-by-side vs other frameworks with check/cross marks
- Quick start header: gradient accent bar section divider
- README rewritten to integrate all SVG graphics with refined typography
