Pysar user guide
Pysar is an author-directed editorial engine. You bring an idea or a rough draft; it helps you shape a piece you trust. It does not post on your behalf.
The binary is a small CLI. The writing workflow runs inside a host agent
(Claude Code or Cursor) through ps-* skills and a local MCP server
(pysar serve).

What you need
- macOS or Linux for the install script (Windows: download a release zip)
- A host agent: Claude Code (default) or Cursor
- Network only for install and optional research/fact-check steps the agent runs
Contributor build, tests, and release mechanics stay in the repo README.
