  AI First Officer — MSFS Community Package
  Quick Start
============================================

WHAT'S IN HERE
  - bridge/            The SimConnect bridge (relays live MSFS data to the
                       AI First Officer website). Ships with a BUNDLED Node
                       runtime + dependencies, so there is NOTHING to install.
  - manifest.json, layout.json
                       MSFS package metadata (the copilot itself runs in

PREREQUISITES
  - Windows 10/11
  - Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 or 2024
  - An AI First Officer account (sign in at
    https://copilot.atlantic-iot.com/aicopilot/)
  - NO Node.js needed — it's bundled in bridge/AIFOBridge.exe

INSTALL (one click!)
  Double-click INSTALL.bat (it sits NEXT TO this folder in the extracted
  zip). It automatically:
    - finds your MSFS Community folder (MS Store/Game Pass + Steam,
      MSFS 2020 + 2024, custom drives),
    - copies this package there,
    - creates an "AI First Officer Bridge" shortcut on your Desktop.
  Re-run it any time to update. If detection fails it just asks you to
  paste the Community path.

  Manual alternative: copy the whole "ai-first-officer" folder into your
  MSFS Community folder yourself. Typical paths:
    - MS Store / Game Pass:
      %LOCALAPPDATA%\Packages\Microsoft.FlightSimulator_8wekyb3d8bbwe\LocalCache\Packages\Community
    - Steam:
      %APPDATA%\Microsoft Flight Simulator\Packages\Community

EACH FLIGHT
  1. Launch MSFS and load into the cockpit.
  2. Double-click "AI First Officer Bridge" on your Desktop.
     (Same as bridge\start-bridge.bat - it starts the bridge and opens
     the AI First Officer website.)
  3. Keep that window open while you fly. Sign in on the website.
  4. The SimConnect light turns GREEN when data is flowing.

PUSH-TO-TALK
  Hold RIGHT ALT to talk to your copilot. You can rebind it on the website
  under Settings > Push To Talk Key.

TROUBLESHOOTING (quick)
  - Red SimConnect dot: make sure MSFS is in the cockpit and the bridge
    window is open.
  - SmartScreen/antivirus warning on AIFOBridge.exe: it's just the official
    Node runtime — choose "More info > Run anyway" and allow it.
  - Port 8080 in use: close extra bridge windows; start it once.
