 # CapstanAI LabNote
 
-#### *A simple, file-based ledger for AI-assisted work that outlives the chat.*
+#### *A human-controlled, git-native project ledger for AI-assisted work across chats and sessions.*
 
-CapstanAI is the project name; LabNote is its practical, file-based ledger.
+CapstanAI LabNote is a lightweight, file-based project ledger for people working across AI assistants, coding agents and separate chats. It keeps selected sources, handoffs, reviews, decisions and next actions in ordinary Markdown files and structured JSON records—so the next session can pick up the project thread.
+
+You decide what belongs in the record and what requires review. A shared entry route gives each AI a clear reading path, defined places to leave work and stopping points for human decisions. Basic ledger use needs no LabNote background service, database or model API key.

 # CapstanAI LabNote
 
-#### *一个简洁、基于文件的项目工作台账（ledger），让 AI 辅助工作在聊天结束后仍能延续。*
+#### *一个由人掌控、Git 原生的项目工作台账，用于跨聊天和会话的 AI 辅助工作。*
 
-CapstanAI 是这个项目的名称；LabNote 是其中实用、基于文件的工作台账。
+CapstanAI LabNote 是一个轻量级、基于文件的项目工作台账，适合在不同 AI 助手、编程智能体和独立聊天之间开展工作的人。它将经过选择的来源、交接、审阅、决策和下一步行动保存在普通 Markdown 文件和结构化 JSON 登记记录中，让下一次会话可以接续项目脉络。
+
+由你决定哪些内容进入记录，以及哪些内容需要审阅。共享入口让每个 AI 都有清晰的阅读路径、明确的工作放置位置，以及等待人类作决定的停靠点。基本台账使用不需要 LabNote 后台服务、数据库或模型 API 密钥。
