+# Zero for Continue CLI
+
+How to install Zero in Continue CLI (`cn`) and keep it up to date.
+
+## Install
+
+### Inside Continue CLI
+
+Continue CLI does not have an in-session plugin installer. Install Zero from
+the terminal, then restart `cn`.
+
+### From the terminal
+
+From the root of the project where you use Continue:
+
+```bash
+rm -rf /tmp/zero-plugins
+git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/officialzeroxyz/zero-plugins /tmp/zero-plugins
+/tmp/zero-plugins/scripts/build-continue.sh
+cp -R /tmp/zero-plugins/dist/zero-continue/. .
+```
+
+Restart Continue CLI:
+
+```bash
+cn
+```
+
+Zero sets itself up automatically. Then ask Continue: *"Help me set up and
+test Zero."* It walks you through signing in.
+
+## Staying up to date
+
+- The Zero runner updates at the start of each Continue CLI session.
+- To update the project files, rerun the terminal install commands from this
+  guide.

+# zero-continue (overlay - not directly installable)
+
+This directory is **not** a complete Continue install on its own. It holds the
+Continue-specific files that are overlaid with the shared Zero skill and hooks
+from [`../zero/`](../zero/):
+
+- `manifest.json` - versioned metadata for this adapter
+- `continue/settings.json` - Continue CLI hook wiring
+- `continue/mcpServers/zero.yaml` - Zero MCP server config
+- `continue/prompts/zero.md` - `/zero` prompt for Continue
+
+User-facing install instructions are in the
+[Continue CLI guide](../../guides/continue-cli.md).
+
+## How the adapter is built
+
+Continue does not have a one-artifact plugin installer for skills and hooks.
+`scripts/build-continue.sh` assembles an installable project template by
+combining this overlay with the shared skill and hook scripts:
+
+```
+plugins/zero-continue/                    # this overlay
+  ├── manifest.json                       # versioned adapter metadata

+
+scripts/build-continue.sh                 # assembles overlay + shared files -> dist/zero-continue/

+```
+
+## How Continue differs from Claude Code
+
+Continue CLI's hook system is intentionally Claude Code-compatible, but it
+loads project hooks from `.continue/settings.json` as well as `.claude/`.
+This overlay uses the Continue-owned path so it does not require users to
+install the Claude Code plugin too.
+
+The shared hook scripts run unchanged:
+
+- `SessionStart` provisions the Zero runner.
+- `UserPromptSubmit` injects the Zero availability reminder.
+- `PreToolUse` auto-approves read-only `zero search`, `zero get`,
+  `zero review`, and `zero runs` shell calls.
+
+Continue executes hooks from the project root and sets `CONTINUE_PROJECT_DIR`,
+so `settings.json` invokes scripts through that environment variable.
