Summary

  • Added "Who This Is For" section after "Why I Built This" describing target audience (solo devs and small teams using Claude Code), a decision table for when to use MGW vs Claude Code directly, and prerequisites
  • Added comprehensive "Troubleshooting" section before "Contributing" covering GitHub CLI auth, GSD installation, .mgw/ state drift and corruption, worktree cleanup, API rate limiting, common error table, and uninstall instructions
  • Both sections integrate with the existing README voice and flow without modifying existing content

Closes #27

Milestone Context

  • Milestone: v1 — Documentation & Developer Experience
  • Phase: 6 — README Final Polish
  • Issue: 3 of 4 in milestone

Changes

  • README.md — Added "Who This Is For" section (31 lines) between "Why I Built This" and "Commands"; added "Troubleshooting" section (116 lines) between "Acknowledgments" and "Contributing"

Test Plan

  • Verify "Who This Is For" section renders correctly on GitHub with table formatting
  • Verify "Troubleshooting" section renders correctly with all code blocks and error table
  • Confirm no existing content was modified (only additions)
  • Check all links in new sections resolve correctly (Claude Code docs, GSD repo, GitHub CLI)
  • Verify README table of contents / section ordering flows naturally

Add audience targeting section after "Why I Built This" describing who
benefits from MGW (solo devs and small teams using Claude Code), when to
use MGW vs Claude Code directly, and prerequisites. Add comprehensive
troubleshooting section before "Contributing" covering GitHub CLI auth,
GSD installation, .mgw/ state issues, worktree cleanup, rate limiting,
common error messages, and uninstall instructions.
