 - **Agents**: Claude Code (Anthropic) with extensible support for other models
 - **Task Management**: Parallel execution system based on container
 
+## Prerequisites
+
+- Docker and Docker Compose installed
+- (Optional) Supabase account for persistent data storage
+
 ## Quick Start
 
-1. **Setup**
+1. **Clone the repository**
    ```bash
    git clone <this-repo>
    cd async-code
-   ./build.sh
    ```
 
-2. **Configure**
-   - Add your Anthropic API key to `server/.env`
-   - Get a GitHub Personal Access Token with repo permissions
+2. **Create the environment file**
+   ```bash
+   cp server/.env.example server/.env
+   ```
+   Edit `server/.env` and set your `ANTHROPIC_API_KEY`. If you are using Supabase, also set `SUPABASE_URL`, `SUPABASE_ANON_KEY` and `SUPABASE_SERVICE_ROLE_KEY`.
+
+3. **Build and start the stack**
+   ```bash
+   docker-compose up --build -d
+   ```
 
-3. **Run**
    - Frontend: http://localhost:3000
    - Backend API: http://localhost:5000
 
+## Supabase Setup
+
+1. Create a new project in the [Supabase](https://supabase.com) dashboard.
+2. Open the SQL editor and run `db/init_supabase.sql` to create the required tables.
+3. Grab your project URL, anon key and service role key from **Project Settings → API** and place them in `server/.env`.
