+# Quick Start Guide
+
+Get Claude Vision Auto running in 5 minutes.
+
+## Prerequisites Check
+
+```bash
+# Check Claude Code
+claude --version
+
+# Check Docker
+docker ps
+
+# Check Python
+python3 --version
+```
+
+## Installation
+
+```bash
+cd /home/svrnty/claude-vision-auto
+
+# Install system dependencies
+sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install -y scrot
+
+# Install Python package
+make install
+```
+
+## Start Ollama (if not running)
+
+```bash
+# Check if running
+docker ps | grep ollama
+
+# If not running, start it
+docker run -d \
+    -p 11434:11434 \
+    --name ollama \
+    --restart unless-stopped \
+    ollama/ollama:latest
+
+# Pull vision model
+docker exec ollama ollama pull minicpm-v:latest
+```
+
+## Test Installation
+
+```bash
+# Verify command
+which claude-vision
+
+# Test connection
+claude-vision --help 2>&1 | head -5
+```
+
+## First Run
+
+```bash
+# Start interactive session
+claude-vision
+
+# You should see:
+# [Claude Vision Auto] Testing Ollama connection...
+# [Claude Vision Auto] Connected to Ollama
+# [Claude Vision Auto] Using model: minicpm-v:latest
+```
+
+## Test Auto-Approval
+
+```bash
+# Try a simple command
+claude-vision "create a test.md file in /tmp"
+
+# Watch for auto-approval when prompted:
+# [Vision] Analyzing prompt...
+# [Vision] Response: 1
+# [Vision] Response sent
+```
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Ollama Not Connected
+```bash
+docker start ollama
+docker exec ollama ollama pull minicpm-v:latest
+```
+
+### Screenshot Fails
+```bash
+sudo apt-get install scrot
+scrot /tmp/test.png  # Test it works
+```
+
+### Command Not Found
+```bash
+export PATH="$HOME/.local/bin:$PATH"
+source ~/.bashrc
+```
+
+## Next Steps
+
+- Read [README.md](README.md) for full documentation
+- See [docs/USAGE.md](docs/USAGE.md) for usage examples
+- Check [docs/INSTALLATION.md](docs/INSTALLATION.md) for detailed setup
+
+## Quick Configuration
+
+Add to `~/.bashrc`:
+
+```bash
+# Claude Vision Auto
+export PATH="$HOME/.local/bin:$PATH"
+alias cv="claude-vision"
+alias cvd="DEBUG=true claude-vision"
+```
+
+Reload:
+
+```bash
+source ~/.bashrc
+cv  # Now you can use 'cv' instead of 'claude-vision'
+```
+
+## Support
+
+- Issues: https://git.openharbor.io/svrnty/claude-vision-auto/issues
+- Documentation: See README.md and docs/
+- Debug mode: `DEBUG=true claude-vision`
