Research direction

Update the repository README, which currently lacks installation and run instructions. Start by checking the existing package scripts and build output, then verify the documented npm run package and node out/index.js --stdio commands; done means a fresh clone has clear, working setup and server-start steps.

Description

documentation enhancement

Hey, sorry my ignorance, but how to run or install this? There is nothing in the readme file.

After some google-ing, is this correct? (after cloning the repo):

npm run package

to run the server:

node out/index.js --stdio

?
