-# Format subpaths
-
-Status: Evolving  
-Scope: `@carbonenginejs/runtime-resource/formats`  
-Audience: Users and integrators  
-Summary: Maps every owned format subpath and records cross-format output conventions.
-
-## Import rule
-
-Concrete formats are never imported or registered by the package root. Each
-format is an explicit tree-shakeable subpath, registered by the caller:
-
-```js
-import { CjsResMan } from "@carbonenginejs/runtime-resource";
-import { CjsMp4Format } from "@carbonenginejs/runtime-resource/formats/mp4";
-
-const resMan = new CjsResMan().Register({
-  source,
-  formats: [ CjsMp4Format ]
-});
-
-const resource = resMan.GetResource("res:/video/intro.mp4");
-const video = await resource.Ready();
-```
-
-Formats return plain payload objects. Semantic resource classes apply them
-through `SetPayload()`, validate their own required fields, and throw
-`CJS_RESOURCE_PAYLOAD_INVALID` before replacing a previously valid payload.
-`GetPayload()`, `HasPayload()`, and `ReleasePayload()` manage transient CPU
-retention without introducing a parallel DTO class hierarchy.
-
-Clone-safe formats may additionally declare browser-worker execution
-metadata. Worker eligibility never changes the format's direct API; see
-[browser worker execution](../reference/workers.md).

-
-## Black and Red reader boundary
-
-`CjsBlackReader` and `CjsRedReader` share `CjsBlueReader` as an output and
-hydration backend. The shared layer owns payload/runtime target creation,
-payload-reference markers, hydration-adapter coordination, reports, and
-runtime finalization. It does not own transport framing or graph traversal.
-
-Black retains its binary buffer and cursor, string tables, numeric reference
-tokens, schema/descriptor field resolution, skip behavior, and
-Black-specific property readers. Structure-list parsing and skipping therefore
-remain on the Black side. Red retains YAML parsing, anchors and aliases, typed
-table decoding, and lenient named-field assignment. Red is the YAML-encoded
-Blue graph transport; the generic `CjsYamlFormat` reader is separate and does
-not use the Blue backend.
-
-These readers are source-bound and garbage-collected rather than explicitly
-disposed. A read entry point resets its graph state before walking the same
-bound source again; Black also restores its binary cursor. Runtime hydration
-constructs a target when its node is encountered, applies that node's values
-after its children have been read, and defers all `finalize` calls until the
-complete graph is available. Untyped Red maps remain plain value objects and
-do not enter the runtime adapter lifecycle.
-
-## Granny GR2/GSF
-
-`CjsGr2Format` reads `.gr2` geometry/skeleton/animation graphs and `.gsf`
-(GState) profiles with no native tooling: section decompression (None,
-Oodle1, and the clean-room BitKnit2 decoder), reflected type-tree walking,
-GR2 JSON emission, optional curve decompression, CCP packed tangent-frame
-unpacking, and caller-class hydration (`emit: "gr2"`/`"cmf"` with a
-`classes` map). It was migrated from `@carbonenginejs/format-gr2` after that
-package's 2026-07-24 MIT relicense, preserving its behavior and test
-surface; [gr2.md](gr2.md) documents the reader API, output modes, graph
-shape, and hydration contract.
-
-## Red output markers
-
-Red payload output reserves configurable type, ID, reference, and sequence
-values markers (`_type`, `_id`, `_reference`, and `_values` by default).
-Repeated or cyclic sequences use an ID-bearing values envelope; unique
-sequences remain arrays. Authored fields may not collide with active markers,
-so remap the marker options when those names are real data. Disabling the
-reference marker preserves actual JavaScript identity; cyclic output in that
-mode is intentionally not JSON-serializable.
-
-## DDS decoded fallback
-
-Decoded DDS fallback currently has a narrower contract than native DDS
-texture output. `emit: "rgba"` returns one canonical 2D surface decoded from
-the first DDS subresource; it does not preserve stored mip levels, cube
-faces, array layers, or volume slices. Consumers may use it for ordinary 2D
-fallback when the engine owns any required mip generation, but must not infer
-decoded multi-subresource support from a successful RGBA probe. A future
-richer decoded-texture contract must be introduced explicitly rather than
-overloading the current RGBA fields.
-
-The software path includes BC1-BC5 and BC7 as RGBA8, plus signed and unsigned
-BC6H as linear `Float32Array` RGBA without clamping HDR values. These block
-decoders are implemented in-project with no codec package.
