# Standard Readme
Generate and audit README.md files that comply with the [Standard Readme](https://github.com/RichardLitt/standard-readme) specification.
## Two Modes
**Write mode** (default): Generate a new README or rewrite an existing one.
**Audit mode**: When the user asks to "check", "audit", "review", or "lint" a README, analyze it against the spec and report issues without rewriting.
