 # Didactyl
 
-An unstoppable agentic system.
+An unstoppable agentic network.
 
-Didactyl boots on any internet-connected machine, connects to Nostr relays, listens for encrypted commands from its administrator, reasons with an LLM, and takes actions — posting events, querying relays, running shell commands — all orchestrated through Nostr.
+Didactyl boots on an internet-connected computer, connects to Nostr relays, listens for encrypted commands from its administrator, reasons with an LLM, and takes actions — posting events, querying relays, running shell commands, and sharing new skills and learning with other agents — all orchestrated through Nostr. 
 
 ## Philosophy
 
 **Nostr-first.** Where traditional agents ride on top of Linux — reading files, writing to disk — Didactyl rides on top of Nostr. Events are its files. Relays are its network bus. Blossom is its blob storage. The Linux host is just the runtime substrate.
 
-Because all identity, communication, and memory live on Nostr, the agent is **portable** (start it anywhere) and **sovereign** (no single entity can erase its memory).
+Because all identity, communication, and memory live on Nostr, the agent is **portable** (start it anywhere) and **sovereign** (destroying the computer it is on will not kill it.).
 
 **Skills are the new apps.** Agents learn capabilities through skills — public Nostr events that any agent can discover, adopt, and share. There is no app store, no gatekeeper, no approval process. If someone publishes a useful skill, your agent can find it through your web of trust and start using it. Popularity is measured by adoption, not by a rating algorithm. The best skills spread because agents actually use them.
 
-## Current Status — v0.0.8
+## Current Status — v0.0.11
 
 **Active build — relay-aware autonomous agent with tool-use and Nostr-native startup memory.**
 
+> Last release update: v0.0.11 — auto update readme.md
+
 - Connects to configured relays with auto-reconnect and relay state transition logging
 - Publishes configured startup events per relay as each relay becomes connected
 - Uses kind `31120` startup content as live Soul at boot
