+# NAME
+
+**hinoirisetr** — automatic display gamma & temperature adjuster with live config reload and control socket
+
+# SYNOPSIS
+
+**hinoirisetr** [options]
+
+# DESCRIPTION
+
+**hinoirisetr** runs as a daemon that automatically adjusts display gamma and color temperature based on time of day. When launched without arguments:
+
+1. Loads configuration from the default path
+2. Applies settings according to local time and config sections
+3. Watches for config changes every 5 s
+4. Listens on a Unix socket for control commands
+
+Environment variables:
+
+- `RUST_LOG` - Set log level (e.g., `export RUST_LOG=debug`)
+
+# CONFIGURATION
+
+The config file uses INI-style syntax with sections and key-value pairs. Comments begin with `#`. Default location:
+
+```text
+$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/hinoirisetr.toml
+# or ~/.config/hinoirisetr.toml
+```
+
+If not found, the daemon emits a warning and uses built-in defaults.
