+AI-powered conversational registration agent for **Spielgruppe Pumuckl** (Familienverein Fällanden, Switzerland). Parents register their child and ask questions via email — the agent handles the conversation, validates all required fields, and notifies the playgroup admin on completion.
 
 Replaces a static Google Forms workflow with an AI agent that guides parents through child registration via natural conversation — over email or a web chat interface.

-Greenfield — specification complete, implementation not yet started.
+- Python 3.13+
+- [uv](https://docs.astral.sh/uv/) (dependency manager)
 
-## Running the Email Agent
+## Installation
 
-The email agent is a plain script invoked periodically via cron — no long-running daemon needed.
+```bash
-
+git clone https://github.com/gurix/Meister-Eder.git
-### Scheduling with cron
+cd Meister-Eder
-
+uv sync
-```cron
-*/5 * * * * flock -n /tmp/meister-eder-email.lock python /path/to/check_email.py
 ```
 
-`flock -n` acquires an exclusive lock before running the script. If a previous run is still in progress when the next cron tick fires, the new invocation exits immediately (non-blocking). The lock is released automatically by the kernel when the process ends — even on crash — so stuck locks are not a concern.
+## Configuration
 
-Adjust `*/5` to whatever polling interval makes sense (e.g. `*/2` for every 2 minutes).
+Copy the example env file and fill in your values:
+
+```bash
+cp .env.example .env
+```
+
+### Required variables
+
+| Variable | Description |
+|---|---|
+| `AI_MODEL` | litellm model string, e.g. `anthropic/claude-opus-4-6` or `openai/gpt-4o` |
+| `ANTHROPIC_API_KEY` | API key for Anthropic models |
+| `OPENAI_API_KEY` | API key for OpenAI models (if using OpenAI) |
+| `IMAP_HOST` | IMAP server hostname for receiving parent emails |
+| `IMAP_USERNAME` | Email account username |
+| `IMAP_PASSWORD` | Email account password |
+| `SMTP_HOST` | SMTP server hostname for sending replies |
+| `REGISTRATION_EMAIL` | Sender address shown to parents |
+
+### Optional variables
+
+| Variable | Default | Description |
+|---|---|---|
+| `IMAP_PORT` | `993` | IMAP port |
+| `IMAP_USE_SSL` | `true` | Use SSL for IMAP |
+| `SMTP_PORT` | `587` | SMTP port |
+| `SMTP_USE_TLS` | `true` | Use STARTTLS for SMTP |
+| `DATA_DIR` | `data/` | Directory for conversation state and completed registrations |
+| `KNOWLEDGE_BASE_DIR` | `openspec/…/knowledge-base` | Path to admin-editable knowledge base markdown files |
+| `POLL_INTERVAL` | `60` | Seconds between inbox polls (only used when running as a daemon) |
+
+### Switching AI providers
+
+`AI_MODEL` uses [litellm](https://docs.litellm.ai/docs/providers) model strings — any supported provider works without code changes:
+
+```bash
+# Anthropic (default)
+AI_MODEL=anthropic/claude-opus-4-6
+ANTHROPIC_API_KEY=sk-ant-...
+
+# OpenAI
+AI_MODEL=openai/gpt-4o
+OPENAI_API_KEY=sk-...
+
+# Google Gemini
+AI_MODEL=gemini/gemini-2.0-flash
+GEMINI_API_KEY=...
+```
+
+## Running
+
+### As a cron job (recommended)
+
+The agent is a plain script — no long-running daemon needed. Schedule it with cron and use `flock` to prevent overlapping runs:
+
+```cron
+*/5 * * * * flock -n /tmp/meister-eder-email.lock uv run python main.py
+```
+
+`flock -n` exits immediately if a previous run is still in progress, so the script is always safe to schedule aggressively.
+
+### Manually
+
+```bash
+uv run python main.py
+```
+
+## Development
+
+### Running tests
+
+```bash
+uv run pytest
+```
+
+All tests are unit tests — no network access or API keys required.
+
+### Knowledge base
+
+The agent answers parent questions from markdown files in the knowledge base directory. These files are designed to be edited directly by playgroup admins — no code changes needed to update fees, schedules, or policies.
+
+### Adding a new AI provider
+
+Set `AI_MODEL` to any [litellm-supported model string](https://docs.litellm.ai/docs/providers) and set the corresponding API key environment variable. No code changes required.
