✨ ELI5: get her running in 3 steps

Think of Vi-Chan as a cute chat window that lets an AI help with your computer. She needs two things: **Python** (a free program that runs her) and an **API key** (a secret password that lets her talk to an AI).

**1. Install Python** (once): download it from [python.org/downloads](https://www.python.org/downloads/). On Windows, tick **"Add Python to PATH"** during install.

**2. Open a terminal and paste this** (Windows: search "Terminal" or "PowerShell"; Mac: search "Terminal"):

pip install git+https://github.com/JerenzeLevi/vi-chan-terminal.git

**3. Type `vichan` and press Enter.** She'll ask you to pick an AI, paste your API key, and choose a model. Then just talk to her! ♡

**What's an API key?** A long secret text you get from an AI company's website. It is *not* the same as a ChatGPT Plus or Claude Pro subscription; those don't include one. Get a key here (pay-as-you-go, cents for casual use):

Treat your key like a password. Never share it or post it online.
