 **AI-powered terminal agent for QualityMax.** Named after Max, the real cat who inspired it all.
 
-qmax-code is the LLM brain that orchestrates the open-source [`qmax`](https://github.com/Quality-Max/qmax-local-agent) CLI. It connects to the Claude API, understands your testing intent in natural language, and translates it into structured CLI operations — crawling sites, generating tests, running scripts, reviewing repos.
+qmax-code is a standalone terminal agent for QualityMax. It connects directly to
+the QualityMax API, understands testing intent in natural language, and runs
+structured workflows for crawling sites, generating tests, running scripts, and
+reviewing repos. No separate `qmax` CLI is required.
