+## What is gbnet-hs?
+
+A transport-level networking library providing:
+
+- **Zero-copy serialization** — Storable-based, C-level speed (14ns per type)
+- **Reliable UDP** — Connection-oriented with ACKs, retransmits, and ordering
+- **Unified Peer API** — Same code for client, server, or P2P mesh
+- **Effect abstraction** — `MonadNetwork` typeclass enables pure deterministic testing
+- **Congestion control** — Dual-layer: binary mode + TCP New Reno window, with application-level backpressure
+- **Zero-poll receive** — Dedicated receive thread via GHC IO manager (epoll/kqueue), STM TQueue delivery
+- **Connection migration** — Seamless IP address change handling
+
+---
+
+## Quick Start
+
+Add to your `.cabal` file:
+
+```cabal
+build-depends:
+    gbnet-hs
+```
+
+### Simple Game Loop
+
+```haskell
+import GBNet
+import Control.Monad.IO.Class (liftIO)
+
+main :: IO ()
+main = do
+  -- Create peer (binds UDP socket)
+  let addr = anyAddr 7777
+  now <- getMonoTimeIO
+  Right (peer, sock) <- newPeer addr defaultNetworkConfig now
+
+  -- Wrap socket in NetState (starts dedicated receive thread)
+  netState <- newNetState sock addr
+
+  -- Run game loop inside NetT IO
+  evalNetT (gameLoop peer) netState
+
+gameLoop :: NetPeer -> NetT IO ()
+gameLoop peer = do
+  -- Single call: receive, process, broadcast, send
+  let outgoing = [(ChannelId 0, encodeMyState myState)]
+  (events, peer') <- peerTick outgoing peer
+
+  -- Handle events
+  liftIO $ mapM_ handleEvent events
+
+  gameLoop peer'
+
+handleEvent :: PeerEvent -> IO ()
+handleEvent = \case
+  PeerConnected pid dir   -> putStrLn $ "Connected: " ++ show pid
+  PeerDisconnected pid _  -> putStrLn $ "Disconnected: " ++ show pid
+  PeerMessage pid ch msg  -> handleMessage pid ch msg
+  PeerMigrated old new    -> putStrLn "Peer address changed"
+```
+
+### Connecting to a Remote Peer
+
+```haskell
+-- Initiate connection (handshake happens automatically)
+let peer' = peerConnect (peerIdFromAddr remoteAddr) now peer
+
+-- The PeerConnected event fires when handshake completes
+```
+
+---
+
+## Networking
+
+### The `peerTick` Function
+
+The recommended API for game loops — handles receive, process, and send in one call:
+
+```haskell
+peerTick
+  :: MonadNetwork m
+  => [(ChannelId, ByteString)] -- Messages to broadcast (channel, data)
+  -> NetPeer                   -- Current peer state
+  -> m ([PeerEvent], NetPeer)  -- Events and updated state
+```
+
+### Peer Events
+
+```haskell
+data PeerEvent
+  = PeerConnected !PeerId !ConnectionDirection  -- Inbound or Outbound
+  | PeerDisconnected !PeerId !DisconnectReason
+  | PeerMessage !PeerId !ChannelId !ByteString  -- channel, data
+  | PeerMigrated !PeerId !PeerId                -- old address, new address
+```
+
+### Channel Reliability Modes
+
+```haskell
+import GBNet
+
+-- Unreliable: fire-and-forget (position updates)
+let unreliable = defaultChannelConfig { ccDeliveryMode = Unreliable }
+
+-- Reliable ordered: guaranteed delivery, in-order (chat, RPC)
+let reliable = defaultChannelConfig { ccDeliveryMode = ReliableOrdered }
+
+-- Reliable sequenced: latest-only, drops stale (state sync)
+let sequenced = defaultChannelConfig { ccDeliveryMode = ReliableSequenced }
+```
+
+### Configuration
+
+```haskell
+let config = defaultNetworkConfig
+      { ncMaxClients = 32
+      , ncConnectionTimeoutMs = 10000.0
+      , ncKeepaliveIntervalMs = 1000.0
+      , ncMtu = 1200
+      , ncEnableConnectionMigration = True
+      , ncChannelConfigs = [unreliableChannel, reliableChannel]
+      }
+```
+
+---
+
+## Serialization
+
+### Zero-Copy Storable Serialization
+
+```haskell
+{-# LANGUAGE TemplateHaskell #-}
+import GBNet
+
+data PlayerState = PlayerState
+  { psX :: !Float
+  , psY :: !Float
+  , psHealth :: !Word8
+  } deriving (Eq, Show)
+
+deriveStorable ''PlayerState
+
+-- Serialize (14ns, zero-copy)
+let bytes = serialize playerState
+
+-- Deserialize
+let Right player = deserialize bytes :: Either String PlayerState
+```
+
+### Nested Types Just Work
+
+```haskell
+data Vec3 = Vec3 !Float !Float !Float
+deriveStorable ''Vec3
+
+data Transform = Transform !Vec3 !Float  -- position + rotation
+deriveStorable ''Transform
+
+-- Nested types compose via Storable
+let bytes = serialize (Transform pos angle)  -- still 14ns
+```
+
+### Why Storable?
+
+- **C-level speed** — 14ns serialization via direct memory layout
+- **Standard Haskell** — uses base `Storable` typeclass
+- **Composable** — nested types work automatically
+- **Pure API** — `serialize`/`deserialize` are pure functions
+
+---
+
+## Testing
+
+### Pure Deterministic Testing with TestNet
+
+The `MonadNetwork` typeclass allows swapping real sockets for a pure test implementation:
+
+```haskell
+import GBNet
+import GBNet.TestNet
+
+-- Run peer logic purely — no actual network IO
+testHandshake :: ((), TestNetState)
+testHandshake = runTestNet action (initialTestNetState myAddr)
+  where
+    action = do
+      -- Simulate sending
+      netSend remoteAddr someData
+      -- Advance simulated time (absolute MonoTime in nanoseconds)
+      advanceTime (100 * 1000000)  -- 100ms
+      -- Check what would be received
+      result <- netRecv
+      pure ()
+```
+
+### Multi-Peer World Simulation
+
+```haskell
+import GBNet.TestNet
+
+-- Create a world with multiple peers
+let world0 = newTestWorld
+
+-- Run actions for each peer
+let (result1, world1) = runPeerInWorld addr1 action1 world0
+let (result2, world2) = runPeerInWorld addr2 action2 world1
+
+-- Advance to absolute time and deliver ready packets
+let world3 = worldAdvanceTime (100 * 1000000) world2  -- 100ms
+```
+
+### Simulating Network Conditions
+
+```haskell
+-- Add 50ms latency
+simulateLatency 50
+
+-- 10% packet loss
+simulateLoss 0.1
+```
+
+---

+
+### Module Overview
+
+| Module | Purpose |
+|--------|---------|
+| `GBNet` | Top-level facade — import this for convenience |
+| `GBNet.Class` | `MonadTime`, `MonadNetwork` typeclasses |
+| `GBNet.Net` | `NetT` monad transformer with receive thread + TQueue |
+| `GBNet.Net.IO` | `initNetState` — create real UDP socket and start receive thread |
+| `GBNet.Peer` | `NetPeer`, `peerTick`, connection management |
+| `GBNet.Congestion` | Dual-layer congestion control and backpressure |
+| `GBNet.TestNet` | Pure test network, `TestWorld` for multi-peer |
+| `GBNet.Serialize.TH` | `deriveStorable` TH for zero-copy serialization |
+| `GBNet.Serialize` | `serialize`/`deserialize` pure functions |
+
+### Explicit Imports (for larger codebases)
+
+```haskell
+-- Instead of `import GBNet`, be explicit:
+import GBNet.Class (MonadNetwork, MonadTime, MonoTime(..))
+import GBNet.Types (ChannelId(..), SequenceNum(..), MessageId(..))
+import GBNet.Net (NetT, runNetT, evalNetT)
+import GBNet.Net.IO (initNetState)
+import GBNet.Peer (NetPeer, peerTick, PeerEvent(..))
+import GBNet.Config (NetworkConfig(..), defaultNetworkConfig)
+```
+
+---
+
+## Replication Helpers
+
+### Delta Compression
+
+Only send changed fields:
+
+```haskell
+import GBNet.Replication.Delta
+
+instance NetworkDelta PlayerState where
+  type Delta PlayerState = PlayerDelta
+  diff new old = PlayerDelta { ... }
+  apply state delta = state { ... }
+```
+
+### Interest Management
+
+Filter by area-of-interest:
+
+```haskell
+import GBNet.Replication.Interest
+
+let interest = newRadiusInterest 100.0
+if relevant interest entityPos observerPos
+  then sendEntity entity
+  else skip
+```
+
+### Priority Accumulator
+
+Fair bandwidth allocation:
+
+```haskell
+import GBNet.Replication.Priority
+
+let acc = register npcId 2.0
+        $ register playerId 10.0
+          newPriorityAccumulator
+let (selected, acc') = drainTop 1200 entitySize acc
+```
+
+### Snapshot Interpolation
+
+Smooth client-side rendering:
+
+```haskell
+import GBNet.Replication.Interpolation
+
+let buffer' = pushSnapshot serverTime state buffer
+case sampleSnapshot renderTime buffer' of
+  Nothing -> waitForMoreSnapshots
+  Just interpolated -> render interpolated
+```
+
+---
+
+## Congestion Control
+
+gbnet-hs uses a dual-layer congestion control strategy:
+
+### Binary Mode
+
+A send-rate controller that tracks Good/Bad network conditions:
+
+- **Good mode** — additive increase (AIMD): ramps send rate up to 4x base rate
+- **Bad mode** — multiplicative decrease: halves current send rate on loss/high RTT
+- Adaptive recovery timer with quick re-entry detection (doubles on rapid Good→Bad transitions)
+
+### Window-Based (TCP New Reno)
+
+A cwnd-based controller layered alongside binary mode:
+
+- **Slow Start** — exponential growth until ssthresh
+- **Congestion Avoidance** — additive increase per RTT
+- **Recovery** — halves cwnd on packet loss (triggered by fast retransmit)
+- **Slow Start Restart** — resets stale cwnd after idle periods (RFC 2861)
+
+### Backpressure API
+
+Applications can query congestion pressure and adapt:
+
+```haskell
+case peerStats peerId peer of
+  Nothing -> pure ()  -- Peer not connected
+  Just stats -> case nsCongestionLevel stats of
+    CongestionNone     -> sendFreely
+    CongestionElevated -> reduceNonEssential
+    CongestionHigh     -> dropLowPriority
+    CongestionCritical -> onlySendEssential
+```
+
+---
+
+## Build & Test
+
+Requires [GHCup](https://www.haskell.org/ghcup/) with GHC >= 9.6.
+
+```bash
+cabal build                              # Build library
+cabal test                               # Run all tests
+cabal build --ghc-options="-Werror"      # Warnings as errors
+cabal haddock                            # Generate docs
+```
+
+---
+
+## Performance
+
+Optimized for game networking:
+
+- **Zero-allocation serialization** — Storable-based `poke`/`peek`, 14ns for user types (~70M ops/sec)
+- **Zero-allocation packet headers** — direct memory writes, 17ns serialize
+- **Nested types same speed** — Storable composition has no overhead
+- **Strict fields** with bang patterns throughout
+- **GHC flags**: `-O2 -fspecialise-aggressively -fexpose-all-unfoldings`
+- **INLINE pragmas** on hot paths
+- **Hardware-accelerated CRC32C** via SSE4.2/ARMv8 CRC
+- **Zero-poll receive** — dedicated thread blocks on epoll/kqueue, delivers via STM TQueue
+
+### Benchmarks
+
+```
+storable/vec3/serialize      18.98 ns   (52M ops/sec)  -- user types
+storable/transform/serialize 20.80 ns  (48M ops/sec)  -- nested types
+packetheader/serialize      16.49 ns   (60M ops/sec)
+packetheader/deserialize    15.95 ns   (62M ops/sec)
+```
+
+Run with `cabal bench --enable-benchmarks`.

+-- Module      : GBNet.ZeroCopy
+-- Description : Zero-copy vector mutation via ST
+--
+-- Internal module providing zero-overhead in-place mutation of immutable
+-- vectors. Safety is enforced through two mechanisms:
+--
+--   1. __ST rank-2 type__: the @forall s@ prevents the mutable vector
+--      from escaping the callback — compiler-enforced, not convention.
+--
+--   2. __Module opacity__: this module is internal. All buffer types
+--      (@SequenceBuffer@, @SentPacketBuffer@, etc.) are opaque, so
+--      external code cannot access the raw vectors.
+--
+-- The @unsafeThaw@\/@unsafeFreeze@ pair are pointer casts (zero memcpy),
+-- giving C-level mutation performance with Haskell's type-level guarantees.
