No description provided.

Add problem-framing paragraph before feature bullets. Rewrite headers
to be benefit-forward instead of mechanism-forward. Replace 'AI
agent-ready' with 'Deterministic by design' to highlight the actual
differentiator. Add quantification (100+ rules, 20+ vulnerability
classes) and name the rule format (Semgrep-compatible YAML).
Rewrite intro paragraph: hook (AI outpaces security tooling) → evidence
(hidden vulns in structural data flows) → human review gap → tool
failures (pattern matching engines, LLM agents, enterprise analyzers) →
thesis (formal analysis underneath).

Restructure bullets to match plan's Primary/Secondary/Tertiary:
- Finds what pattern matching engines miss (detection depth)
- One finding becomes total coverage (AI flywheel + determinism)
- Open source, batteries included (competitor contrast)

Move detailed explanations to docs/README.md, keep README compact.
Rewrite sub-hero line: find → enact → scale pipeline with parallel
clause structure.

Split intro wall into three paragraphs for breathing room, thesis
lands as standalone one-liner.

Fix wording: 'coverage' → 'they caught everything', 'vendor lock-in'
→ 'your rules live in your repo', trim documentation filler.
Replace 'including the deep analysis' and 'your rules live in your
repo' with 'no gates on writing your own rules' — the real lock-in
is that closed tools prevent rule authoring, not that they take rules.
