-# Simple CLI - Particle-OS Development System
+# Particle-OS Simple-CLI
 
-Simple CLI is a Debian-based Particle-OS system focused on providing a clean, CLI-oriented development environment with container-based development tools.
+## Overview
+
+Particle-OS Simple-CLI is a development and testing environment that demonstrates the core Particle-OS concepts working together. It inherits directly from the Debian Atomic foundation and integrates all three core Particle-OS tools:
+
+- **apt-ostree**: Atomic package management
+- **bootupd**: Bootloader update management  
+- **bootc**: Container deployment and management
+
+## Architecture
+
+```
+Debian Atomic (proven foundation)
+    ↓
+Particle-OS Simple-CLI
+    ↓
+Integrated tools: apt-ostree + bootupd + bootc
+```
 
 ## Features
 
-- **Base System**: Debian Trixie with OSTree
-- **Container Runtime**: Podman with full container support
-- **Development Tools**: Both Toolbox and Distrobox for development environments
-- **Build System**: Just-based automation with comprehensive recipes
-- **Immutable Design**: Atomic updates with rollback capability
+- ✅ **Clean Architecture**: Direct inheritance from Debian Atomic
+- ✅ **Tool Integration**: All three Particle-OS tools working together
+- ✅ **Concept Proofing**: Atomic update workflow demonstrated
+- ✅ **SSH Access**: Remote access configured and ready
+- ✅ **OSTree Foundation**: Full OSTree system with all features
 
-## Development Environments
+## Quick Start
 
-Simple CLI provides two powerful development environment tools:
+### Build the Container
 
-### 1. Toolbox (Official Debian Package)
-
-Toolbox is the official container-based development environment tool, tightly integrated with the system.
-
-#### Quick Start
 ```bash
-# Create a development environment
-toolbox create dev
-
-# Enter the development environment
-toolbox enter dev
-
-# Install development tools
-apt update
-apt install gcc make git python3-pip
-
-# Work on projects without affecting the immutable host
+just build-with-tools-ssh
 ```
 
-#### Features
-- **Native Debian integration** - Uses Debian Trixie containers
-- **Host filesystem access** - Full access to your home directory
-- **Package management** - Use APT to install any tools
-- **System integration** - Access to host network, USB devices, display
-
-### 2. Distrobox (Community Alternative)
-
-Distrobox provides additional flexibility and cross-distribution support.
-
-#### Quick Start
-```bash
-# Create a development environment
-distrobox create dev --image debian:trixie
-
-# Enter the development environment
-distrobox enter dev
-
-# Install development tools
-apt update
-apt install build-essential git python3-pip
-
-# Work on projects with full flexibility
-```
-
-#### Features
-- **Cross-distribution support** - Can use Ubuntu, Fedora, or other images
-- **Advanced container management** - More flexible than Toolbox
-- **Multiple backends** - Supports both Docker and Podman
-- **Custom configurations** - Highly configurable for specific needs
-
-## Using Just Commands
-
-Simple CLI includes comprehensive Just-based automation:
+### Test the Integration
 
 ```bash
-# Setup development environment
-just setup-dev
-
-# Create development environments
-just create-dev-toolbox      # Create Toolbox environment
-just create-dev-distrobox    # Create Distrobox environment
-
-# Enter environments
-just dev-toolbox             # Enter Toolbox environment
-just dev-distrobox           # Enter Distrobox environment
-
-# Test functionality
-just test-toolbox            # Test Toolbox
-just test-distrobox          # Test Distrobox
-
-# List all environments
-just list-envs               # Show all development environments
-
-# Clean up
-just cleanup-envs            # Remove all development environments
-```
-

 ## Troubleshooting
 
 ### Common Issues
 
-1. **Permission Denied**: Ensure your user is in the appropriate groups
-   ```bash
-   sudo usermod -a -G podman $USER
-   newgrp podman
-   ```
+1. **Container registry issues**: Use full image IDs instead of short names
+2. **Permission issues**: Run with `--privileged` flag when needed
+3. **Storage access**: Mount volumes explicitly for file access
 
-2. **Container Creation Fails**: Check container runtime status
-   ```bash
-   podman system info
-   systemctl status podman.socket
-   ```
+### Debug Commands
 
-3. **Network Issues**: Verify host networking
-   ```bash
-   ip addr show
-   toolbox enter dev -- ip addr show
-   ```
+```bash
+# Check tool availability
+podman run --rm simple-cli:latest which bootc
 
-### Getting Help
+# Verify OSTree status
+podman run --rm simple-cli:latest ostree --version
 
-- **Toolbox**: [containertoolbx.org](https://containertoolbox.org/)
-- **Distrobox**: [github.com/89luca89/distrobox](https://github.com/89luca89/distrobox)
