+# Lyra
+
+A persistent, autonomous AI assistant. From-scratch rewrite of an earlier attempt.
+
+The design thinking that survives the rewrite lives in [`docs/`](docs/) — start with [`docs/ARCH_v0-6-1.md`](docs/ARCH_v0-6-1.md). The previous implementation is preserved on the `archive` branch.
+
+## Status
+
+Pre-MVP. Building toward the smallest useful version: chat with persistent memory across sessions.
+
+## Setup
+
+```bash
+uv sync
+cp .env.example .env
+# fill in ANTHROPIC_API_KEY and point LOCAL_BASE_URL at your Ollama
+```
+
+## Architecture
+
+The long-term target is the cognitive split in `docs/ARCH_v0-6-1.md` — Inner Self as the seat of consciousness, Executive for hard reasoning, Cortex Chat for drafting, Persona for voice. The MVP implements only the chat + memory baseline. Cognitive layers come back one at a time.
