# Main Branch - mainbranch.run

## What this is

Main Branch is a CLI plus bundled skills for running a business from an owned folder or repo. The agent reads the business context before it answers, so outputs can draw from offer, audience, voice, research, decisions, bets, pushes, playbooks, outcomes, and checkpoints.

## Public/private boundary

Main Branch itself is open source. A user's private business context, tuned playbooks, customers, and account details can remain private. The product provides reusable rails and examples without requiring users to publish their own business data.
