 **Key Points:**
- Security package is spec-agnostic and provides core logic
+- `NewOptionalAuthMiddleware` never rejects — it sets guest context on auth failure; `BeforeHandle` enforces auth after model resolution
+- `BeforeHandle` fires after model resolution, giving access to model rules and user context simultaneously
 - Each spec registers its own hooks that adapt to SecurityContext
 - Security rules are loaded once and cached for the request
 - Row security is applied to the query (database level)

+## Model-Level Access Control
+
+Use `ModelRules` (from `pkg/modelregistry`) to control per-entity auth behavior:
+
+```go
+modelregistry.RegisterModelWithRules("public.products", &Product{}, modelregistry.ModelRules{
+    SecurityDisabled: false,   // true = skip all auth checks
+    CanPublicRead:    true,    // unauthenticated GET allowed

+    CanUpdate:        true,    // authenticated users can update
+    CanDelete:        false,   // authenticated users cannot delete
+})
+```
+
+`CheckModelAuthAllowed(secCtx, operation)` applies these rules in `BeforeHandle`:
+1. `SecurityDisabled` → allow all
+2. `CanPublicRead/Create/Update/Delete` → allow unauthenticated for that operation
+3. Guest (UserID == 0) → return 401
+4. Authenticated → allow (operation-specific `CanUpdate`/`CanDelete` checked in `BeforeUpdate`/`BeforeDelete`)

+## HeaderSpec Header Mapping
+
+Maps Options to HTTP headers per Go `restheadspec/headers.go`:
+
+| Header | Options field | Format |
+|--------|--------------|--------|
+| `X-Select-Fields` | `columns` | comma-separated |
+| `X-Not-Select-Fields` | `omit_columns` | comma-separated |
+| `X-FieldFilter-{col}` | `filters` (eq, AND) | value |
+| `X-SearchOp-{op}-{col}` | `filters` (AND) | value |
+| `X-SearchOr-{op}-{col}` | `filters` (OR) | value |
+| `X-Sort` | `sort` | `+col` (asc), `-col` (desc) |
+| `X-Limit` | `limit` | number |
+| `X-Offset` | `offset` | number |
+| `X-Cursor-Forward` | `cursor_forward` | string |
+| `X-Cursor-Backward` | `cursor_backward` | string |
+| `X-Preload` | `preload` | `Rel:col1,col2` pipe-separated |
+| `X-Fetch-RowNumber` | `fetch_row_number` | string |
+| `X-CQL-SEL-{col}` | `computedColumns` | expression |
+| `X-Custom-SQL-W` | `customOperators` | SQL AND-joined |
+
+Complex values use `ZIP_` + base64 encoding.
+HTTP methods: GET=read, POST=create, PUT=update, DELETE=delete.
+
+---
+
+## Build & Test
+
+```bash
+pnpm install
+pnpm run build    # vite library mode → dist/
+pnpm run test     # vitest
+pnpm run lint     # eslint
+```
+
+**Config files:** `tsconfig.json` (ES2020, strict, bundler), `vite.config.ts` (lib mode, dts via vite-plugin-dts)
+**Externals:** `uuid`, `semver`
+
+---
+
+## Remaining Work
+
+- **Phase 6 — MQTT Client**: Topic-based CRUD over MQTT (optional/future)
+- **Phase 7 — Cache**: In-memory response cache with TTL, key = URL + options hash, auto-invalidation on CUD, `skipCache` flag
+- **Phase 8 — TanStack Query Integration**: Query/mutation hooks wrapping each client, query key factories, automatic cache invalidation
+- **Phase 9 — React Hooks**: `useResolveSpec`, `useHeaderSpec`, `useWebSocket` hooks with provider context, loading/error states
+- ESLint config may need updating for new folder structure

+# ResolveSpec JS
+
+TypeScript client library for ResolveSpec APIs. Supports body-based REST, header-based REST, and WebSocket protocols.
+
+## Install
+
+```bash
+pnpm add @warkypublic/resolvespec-js
+```
+
+## Clients
+
+| Client | Protocol | Singleton Factory |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| `ResolveSpecClient` | REST (body-based) | `getResolveSpecClient(config)` |
+| `HeaderSpecClient` | REST (header-based) | `getHeaderSpecClient(config)` |
+| `WebSocketClient` | WebSocket | `getWebSocketClient(config)` |
+
+All clients use the class pattern. Singleton factories return cached instances keyed by URL.
+
+## REST Client (Body-Based)
+
+Options sent in JSON request body. Maps to Go `pkg/resolvespec`.
+
+```typescript
+import { ResolveSpecClient, getResolveSpecClient } from '@warkypublic/resolvespec-js';
+
+// Class instantiation
+const client = new ResolveSpecClient({ baseUrl: 'http://localhost:3000', token: 'your-token' });
+
+// Or singleton factory (returns cached instance per baseUrl)
+const client = getResolveSpecClient({ baseUrl: 'http://localhost:3000', token: 'your-token' });
+
+// Read with filters, sort, pagination
+const result = await client.read('public', 'users', undefined, {
+  columns: ['id', 'name', 'email'],
+  filters: [{ column: 'status', operator: 'eq', value: 'active' }],
+  sort: [{ column: 'name', direction: 'asc' }],
+  limit: 10,
+  offset: 0,
+  preload: [{ relation: 'Posts', columns: ['id', 'title'] }],
+});
+
+// Read by ID
+const user = await client.read('public', 'users', 42);
+
+// Create
+const created = await client.create('public', 'users', { name: 'New User' });
+
+// Update
+await client.update('public', 'users', { name: 'Updated' }, 42);
+
+// Delete
+await client.delete('public', 'users', 42);
+
+// Metadata
+const meta = await client.getMetadata('public', 'users');
+```
+
+## HeaderSpec Client (Header-Based)
+
+Options sent via HTTP headers. Maps to Go `pkg/restheadspec`.
+
+```typescript
+import { HeaderSpecClient, getHeaderSpecClient } from '@warkypublic/resolvespec-js';
+
+const client = new HeaderSpecClient({ baseUrl: 'http://localhost:3000', token: 'your-token' });
+// Or: const client = getHeaderSpecClient({ baseUrl: 'http://localhost:3000', token: 'your-token' });
+
+// GET with options as headers
+const result = await client.read('public', 'users', undefined, {
+  columns: ['id', 'name'],
+  filters: [
+    { column: 'status', operator: 'eq', value: 'active' },
+    { column: 'age', operator: 'gte', value: 18, logic_operator: 'AND' },
+  ],
+  sort: [{ column: 'name', direction: 'asc' }],
+  limit: 50,
+  preload: [{ relation: 'Department', columns: ['id', 'name'] }],
+});
+
+// POST create
+await client.create('public', 'users', { name: 'New User' });
+
+// PUT update
+await client.update('public', 'users', '42', { name: 'Updated' });
+
+// DELETE
+await client.delete('public', 'users', '42');
+```
+
+### Header Mapping
+
+| Header | Options Field | Format |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| `X-Select-Fields` | `columns` | comma-separated |
+| `X-Not-Select-Fields` | `omit_columns` | comma-separated |
+| `X-FieldFilter-{col}` | `filters` (eq, AND) | value |
+| `X-SearchOp-{op}-{col}` | `filters` (AND) | value |
+| `X-SearchOr-{op}-{col}` | `filters` (OR) | value |
+| `X-Sort` | `sort` | `+col` asc, `-col` desc |
+| `X-Limit` / `X-Offset` | `limit` / `offset` | number |
+| `X-Cursor-Forward` | `cursor_forward` | string |
+| `X-Cursor-Backward` | `cursor_backward` | string |
+| `X-Preload` | `preload` | `Rel:col1,col2` pipe-separated |
+| `X-Fetch-RowNumber` | `fetch_row_number` | string |
+| `X-CQL-SEL-{col}` | `computedColumns` | expression |
+| `X-Custom-SQL-W` | `customOperators` | SQL AND-joined |
+
+### Utility Functions
+
+```typescript
+import { buildHeaders, encodeHeaderValue, decodeHeaderValue } from '@warkypublic/resolvespec-js';
+
+const headers = buildHeaders({ columns: ['id', 'name'], limit: 10 });
+// => { 'X-Select-Fields': 'id,name', 'X-Limit': '10' }
+
+const encoded = encodeHeaderValue('complex value');  // 'ZIP_...'
+const decoded = decodeHeaderValue(encoded);           // 'complex value'
+```
+
+## WebSocket Client
+
+Real-time CRUD with subscriptions. Maps to Go `pkg/websocketspec`.
+
+```typescript
+import { WebSocketClient, getWebSocketClient } from '@warkypublic/resolvespec-js';
+
+const ws = new WebSocketClient({
+  url: 'ws://localhost:8080/ws',
+  reconnect: true,
+  heartbeatInterval: 30000,
+});
+// Or: const ws = getWebSocketClient({ url: 'ws://localhost:8080/ws' });
+
+await ws.connect();
+
+// CRUD
+const users = await ws.read('users', { schema: 'public', limit: 10 });
+const created = await ws.create('users', { name: 'New' }, { schema: 'public' });
+await ws.update('users', '1', { name: 'Updated' });
+await ws.delete('users', '1');
+
+// Subscribe to changes
+const subId = await ws.subscribe('users', (notification) => {
+  console.log(notification.operation, notification.data);
+});
+
+// Unsubscribe
+await ws.unsubscribe(subId);
+
+// Events
+ws.on('connect', () => console.log('connected'));
+ws.on('disconnect', () => console.log('disconnected'));
+ws.on('error', (err) => console.error(err));
+
+ws.disconnect();
+```
+
+## Types

-
-    return { client, isConnected };
-}
-
-function UsersComponent() {
-    const { client, isConnected } = useWebSocket('ws://localhost:8080/ws');
-    const [users, setUsers] = useState([]);
-
-    useEffect(() => {
-        if (!isConnected) return;
-
-        const loadUsers = async () => {
-            // Subscribe to changes
-            await client.subscribe('users', (notification) => {

-            {users.map(user => (
-                <div key={user.id}>{user.name}</div>
-            ))}
-        </div>
-    );
-}
-```
-
-### TypeScript with Typed Models
-
-```typescript
-interface User {
-    id: number;
-    name: string;
-    email: string;
-    status: 'active' | 'inactive';
-}
-
-interface Post {
-    id: number;
-    title: string;
-    content: string;
-    user_id: number;
-    user?: User;
-}
-
-const client = new WebSocketClient({ url: 'ws://localhost:8080/ws' });
-await client.connect();
-
-// Type-safe operations
-const users = await client.read<User[]>('users', {
-    filters: [{ column: 'status', operator: 'eq', value: 'active' }]
-});
-
-const newUser = await client.create<User>('users', {
-    name: 'Bob',
-    email: 'bob@example.com',

-    (notification) => {
-        const post = notification.data as Post;
-        console.log('Post:', post.title);
-    }
-);
-```
-
-### Error Handling
-
-```typescript
-const client = new WebSocketClient({
-    url: 'ws://localhost:8080/ws',
-    reconnect: true,
-    maxReconnectAttempts: 5
-});
-

-
-### Multiple Subscriptions
-
-```typescript
-const client = new WebSocketClient({ url: 'ws://localhost:8080/ws' });
-await client.connect();
-
-// Subscribe to multiple entities
-const userSub = await client.subscribe('users', (n) => {
-    console.log('[Users]', n.operation, n.data);
-});
-
-const postSub = await client.subscribe('posts', (n) => {
-    console.log('[Posts]', n.operation, n.data);
-}, {
-    filters: [{ column: 'status', operator: 'eq', value: 'published' }]
-});
-
-const commentSub = await client.subscribe('comments', (n) => {
-    console.log('[Comments]', n.operation, n.data);
-});
-
-// Check active subscriptions
-console.log('Active:', client.getSubscriptions().length);
-
-// Clean up
-await client.unsubscribe(userSub);
-await client.unsubscribe(postSub);
-await client.unsubscribe(commentSub);
-```
-
-## Best Practices
-
-1. **Always Clean Up**: Call `disconnect()` when done to close the connection properly
-2. **Use TypeScript**: Leverage type definitions for better type safety
-3. **Handle Errors**: Always wrap operations in try-catch blocks
-4. **Limit Subscriptions**: Don't create too many subscriptions per connection
-5. **Use Filters**: Apply filters to subscriptions to reduce unnecessary notifications
-6. **Connection State**: Check `isConnected()` before operations
-7. **Event Listeners**: Remove event listeners when no longer needed with `off()`
-8. **Reconnection**: Enable auto-reconnection for production apps
