-# Aeonmi v0.2.0 – Closed Source Pre-Release.
-
-> **Notice**
-> Aeonmi is a closed-source project. No redistribution, modification, reverse engineering, or unauthorized use is permitted without explicit written consent from the author. All rights reserved. This pre-release is provided for demonstration, evaluation, and controlled collaboration.
-
-## Overview
-
-Aeonmi is an advanced programming language and compiler framework designed for AI‑native, secure, and multi‑dimensional computing. It introduces **QUBE**, a symbolic/hieroglyphic inner‑core language aimed at adaptive, self‑modifying operations with quantum‑resistant security and deep AI integration.
-
-## What’s in v0.2.0
-
-* **Core compiler pipeline**: lexer → parser → semantic analyzer → code generator.
-* **Diagnostics** with rich, contextual error reporting.
-* **QUBE integration layer** foundations (symbolic / glyph parsing).
-* **Examples** showing control flow, functions, glyphs, and basics.
-* **Strict proprietary licensing**.
-
-## Binaries
-
-This workspace builds two executables:
-
-* **`Aeonmi`** – primary CLI (default run target)
-* **`aeonmi_project`** – legacy/test binary kept for compatibility
-
-> Tip: Use `cargo run` for the default target, or `cargo run --bin aeonmi_project` to run the legacy binary.
-
-## Install & Build
-
-```bash
-# 1) Clone
-git clone https://github.com/DarthMetaCrypro/Aeonmi.git
-cd Aeonmi
-
-# 2) Build
-cargo build --release
-
-# 3) Run (help)
-cargo run -- --help
-
-# Legacy/test binary
-cargo run --bin aeonmi_project -- --help
-```
-
-## CLI Usage (subject to change)
-
-High‑level subcommands currently wired into the CLI:
-
-```text
-run [--out FILE] [--pretty-errors] [--no-sema]
-# compile to JS and try executing with Node
-
-tokens
-# emit lexer tokens
-
-ast
-# emit parsed AST
-
-edit [--tui] [FILE]
-# open editor (TUI with --tui)
-
-repl
-# interactive REPL
-
-format [--check]
-# formatter (WIP)
-
-lint [--fix]
-# linter (WIP)
-```
-
-## Interactive Shell (experimental)
-
-An **Aeonmi Shard** interactive shell is available for quick file navigation and build actions (e.g., `compile`, `run`, `ls`, `cd`, `edit --tui`). Use the CLI help to discover the entrypoint and available commands.

+# Aeonmi
+
+Aeonmi is a compiler/runtime toolkit for quantum and AI-assisted code generation and execution. This repository contains the compiler, runtime pieces, and tooling used in development and testing.
+
+## Quickstart
+
+1. Install Rust (recommended stable toolchain).
+2. Clone the repo:
+ git clone https://github.com/DarthMetaCrypro/Aeonmi.git
+3. Build:
+ cd Aeonmi
+ cargo build
+
+## Running tests
+
+- Run unit and integration tests:
+ cargo test
+
+- Run snapshot review (insta):
+ cargo insta review
+ - While reviewing snapshots you can:
+ - a to accept the new snapshot
+ - r to reject
+ - s to skip and keep both versions
+
+The recent branch `fix/remove-librs` required updating the glyph formatting snapshot; the new snapshot was accepted and included in the changelog.
+
+## Notable changes in this branch
+- Exported `io` module (atomic)
+- Cleanups related to removing library references (branch `fix/remove-librs`)
+- Snapshot updates for glyph formatting
+
+## Developer notes / TODOs
+- Address small warnings reported by the compiler:
+ - `to_emit_kind` method is currently unused (dead_code).
+ - A few unused variables in CLI command handling (prefix with `_` or remove).
+- Decide on version bump strategy:
+ - Patch release (0.2.1) recommended for these internal fixes and API stabilization.
+- Verify CI matrix runs on Windows/Linux/macOS if not already present.
+
+## Contributing
+- Fork, branch, run tests locally, open PR against `main`.
+- Ensure `cargo test` and `cargo insta review` pass before requesting merge.
+- Keep commits small and descriptive; for small fixes prefer a squash-merge.
