+# Strand: Local Rust Code Generation
+
+Strand wraps a local Ollama model (Strand-Rust-Coder-14B) as a stateless, read-only code generation tool. A higher-level agent orchestrates the workflow — reading projects, calling strand for code generation, writing files, running tests.
+
+## CLI Usage
+
+```bash
+# Basic
+mcptools strand generate "Write a function that adds two numbers"
+
+# With file context
+mcptools strand generate "Add error handling" --files src/lib.rs src/types.rs
+
+# Custom model/URL
+mcptools strand generate "Write a hello world" \
+  --model codellama \
+  --ollama-url http://localhost:11434
+```
+
+## MCP Tool
+
+Tool name: `generate_code`
+
+| Argument | Type | Required | Default |
+|----------|------|----------|---------|
+| `instruction` | string | yes | — |
+| `context` | string | no | — |
+| `files` | string[] | no | [] |
+| `ollama_url` | string | no | `http://localhost:11434` |
+| `model` | string | no | `strand-rust-coder` |
+
+## Architecture
+
+Follows the Functional Core - Imperative Shell pattern:
+
+- **Core** (`crates/core/src/strand/`): Pure functions — `build_prompt()`, `extract_code()`, types
+- **Shell** (`crates/mcptools/src/strand/`): Ollama client via `rig-core`, file I/O, CLI
+- **MCP** (`crates/mcptools/src/mcp/tools/strand.rs`): Tool handler bridging MCP to strand module
+
+## Environment Variables
+
+| Variable | Default | Description |
+|----------|---------|-------------|
+| `OLLAMA_URL` | `http://localhost:11434` | Ollama API base URL |
+| `STRAND_MODEL` | `strand-rust-coder` | Default model name |
+
+## Dependencies
+
+- `rig-core` 0.31.0 — Ollama provider via `CompletionClient` trait
+- Requires a running Ollama instance with the target model
+
+## System Preamble
+
+The model is instructed to output only raw Rust code — no markdown fences, no explanations, no commentary. The `extract_code()` function in core provides a safety net to strip any accidental fences or leading text from the response.
