+| Marked, not shaped | Only providers carrying the marker are called. A provider that merely has `registerMetrics` is never touched.                                                                         |
+| Called once        | At bootstrap, with the registry the scrape endpoint serves. Never per request, never per scrape.                                                                                      |
+| Stable order       | Contributors run sorted by class name, so a collision fails the same way on every boot.                                                                                               |
+| Named failures     | A registration failure — usually a metric name another library already claimed — fails the boot naming the contributor. `prom-client` names the metric; this names who registered it. |
+| Off with metrics   | With the metrics feature disabled, no contributor runs and `prom-client` is never loaded.                                                                                             |
+
+**Naming and labels.** Contributors share one registry and one namespace, so the
+conventions are part of the contract:
+
+- Prefix every metric with `bymax_<library>_` (`bymax_queue_depth`,
+  `bymax_cache_hits_total`). An application's own metrics need no prefix — they
+  have no one to collide with but themselves.
+- Follow Prometheus naming: `_total` for counters, `_seconds` for durations, base
+  units, no units in the middle of a name.
+- Keep labels bounded. Route templates, never raw paths; status codes, never
+  messages. **Never** a tenant, user, or request id — one unbounded label is
+  enough to make a scrape endpoint the most expensive route in a service.
+
+## 📘 OpenAPI
+
+Disabled by default, and **never served in production**. Enabling it and calling
+one helper during bootstrap publishes an interactive UI at `GET /docs` and the
+raw document at `GET /docs-json`:
+
+```typescript
+// app.module.ts — configuration lives with every other feature
+BymaxCoreModule.forRoot({ openapi: { enabled: true, title: 'Invoices API' } })
+```
+
+```typescript
+// main.ts — the one call that needs the application instance
+import { NestFactory } from '@nestjs/core'
+import { applyBymaxOpenApi } from '@bymax-one/nest-core/openapi'
+import { AppModule } from './app.module'
+
+async function bootstrap(): Promise<void> {
+  const app = await NestFactory.create(AppModule)
+  await applyBymaxOpenApi(app)
+  await app.listen(3000)
+}
+
+void bootstrap()
+```
+
+> [!IMPORTANT]
+> Call `applyBymaxOpenApi` **before** `app.listen()`. Mounting the document
+> re-registers routes on the HTTP adapter, and doing that against an
+> already-initialized Express 5 application replaces the router: the document
+> appears and every other route in the application — yours and this package's
+> health endpoints alike — starts returning 404.
+
+The call is safe to make unconditionally. It returns what it did, so a template
+can emit it once and never branch:
+
+| Result                                     | Meaning                                                 |
+| ------------------------------------------ | ------------------------------------------------------- |
+| `{ mounted: true, path }`                  | The UI and the document are served at `path`.           |
+| `{ mounted: false, reason: 'disabled' }`   | `openapi.enabled` is off.                               |
+| `{ mounted: false, reason: 'production' }` | The runtime is production. Nothing was built or served. |
+
+### Production is a closed door
+
+`NODE_ENV` decides, and the decision is fail-closed: only `development` and
+`test` are non-production. Any other value — including an unset variable —
+is production, and in production the document is never built and never mounted,
+whatever the configuration says. The guard runs twice, independently: the option
+resolver forces the feature off, and the bootstrap helper refuses again without
+trusting that resolution. There is no override.
+
+Enabling it in production is not an error, it is a no-op with a warning naming
+the option that was ignored, so a single configuration can be shared across
+environments.
+
+### What the library contributes
+
+With `includeCoreSchemas` on, the document carries the contracts this package
+already serves, so an operation can `$ref` them instead of redeclaring them:
+
+| Component                                                             | Describes                               |
+| --------------------------------------------------------------------- | --------------------------------------- |
+| `BymaxErrorEnvelope`, `BymaxErrorDetails`, `BymaxErrorCode`           | The error contract and its code catalog |
+| `BymaxHealthResponse`, `BymaxHealthCheckEntry`                        | The liveness and readiness bodies       |
+| `BymaxPageResult`, `BymaxPageMeta`, `BymaxCursorResult`               | The offset and cursor page shapes       |
+| `BymaxPageQueryPage`, `BymaxPageQueryLimit`, `BymaxCursorQueryCursor` | The pagination query parameters         |
+
+They are contributed as plain specification objects, not as decorated classes.
+That is what keeps `@nestjs/swagger` genuinely optional: a decorator runs when
+its class is defined, so describing these contracts with `@ApiProperty` would
+load the peer in every application that imports this package, including the ones
+that never enable the feature.
+
+A contributed entry never overwrites one the document already has: if you
+document your own `BymaxErrorEnvelope`, yours wins.
+
+## 🧵 Trace correlation
+
+Off by default. Enabled, it reads the span your instrumentation already opened
+and carries its identifiers into the signals this package produces:
+
+```typescript
+BymaxCoreModule.forRoot({ telemetry: { enabled: true } })
+```
+
+| Where it lands                            | When                                                                                                                  |
+| ----------------------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
+| `RequestTimingSample.traceId` / `.spanId` | Whenever a span is recording. Your sink forwards them to logs or wherever samples go.                                 |
+| `FilterErrorContext.traceId`              | Always available to the `onUnexpectedError` seam, so a logging pipeline can record it.                                |
+| The error-envelope body                   | Only with `exposeTraceId` on.                                                                                         |
+| Metric labels                             | Never. A trace id is unbounded; as a label it would make the scrape endpoint the most expensive route in the service. |
+
+This package **reads**; it never traces. It starts no span, configures no SDK,
+registers no exporter, and installs no instrumentation — all of which your
+collector setup already does, and doing it twice produces two spans per request.
+`@opentelemetry/api` is an optional peer, loaded once at bootstrap and only when
+the feature is on.
+
+A request with nothing recording, or an all-zero span context, resolves to no
+trace at all: the fields are absent rather than set to a sentinel, so a sink
+never has to recognize a string of zeros.
+
+### Publishing the id is a separate decision
+
+`exposeTraceId` is off by default. A trace id is not a secret, but in a response
+body it tells a caller that a tracing backend exists and hands them the
+identifier that ties their request to everything else in that trace. Support
+teams often want exactly that, which is why the option exists; it is opt-in so it
+is a decision rather than a side effect. With it off, the identifiers still reach
+your samples and your logs.
