 DIAL Visualizer Connector is a library for connecting DIAL CHAT with custom visualizers - applications which could visualize some special type data (for example **plot data** for the **Plotly**).
 
+This is the **chat side** of the integration: it creates the iframe, shows a loader until the embedded page is ready, and exchanges post messages with it. The embedded page uses [DIAL Chat Visualizer Connector](../chat-visualizer-connector/README.md).
+
 ## Public classes to use
 
 `VisualizerConnector` - class which creates iframe with provided **VisualizerConnector**, allows to interact with **Visualizer** rendered in the iframe (send data). Types for configuration options is `VisualizerConnectorOptions`.

 How to configure your DIAL CHAT to use **Custom Visualizers** you could find [here](../chat-visualizer-connector/README.md).

+At **Visualizer** side should be used [DIAL Chat VIsualizer Connector](../chat-visualizer-connector/README.md).
+
+For **Custom Viewers** (a viewer replacing the whole chat UI for an application) see [Custom Viewers](../../docs/CUSTOM-VIEWERS.md).
+
+## Usage
+
+```typescript
+import { VisualizerConnectorRequests } from '@epam/ai-dial-shared';
+import { VisualizerConnector } from '@epam/ai-dial-visualizer-connector';
+
+const visualizer = new VisualizerConnector(containerElement, {
+  domain: 'http://localhost:8000',
+  hostDomain: window.location.origin,
+  visualizerName: 'CUSTOM_VISUALIZER',
+  loaderClass: 'bg-layer-1',
+});
+
+await visualizer.ready();
+
+await visualizer.send(VisualizerConnectorRequests.sendVisualizeData, {
+  mimeType: 'application/json',
+  visualizerData: { layout: { width: 0, height: 0 } },
+});
+
+visualizer.destroy();
+```
+
+The in-repo consumer is `apps/chat/src/components/IframeRenderer` — use it as a reference.
+
+## Options
+
+```typescript
+interface VisualizerConnectorOptions {
+  domain: string; // origin of the embedded visualizer/viewer - also the postMessage target origin
+  hostDomain: string; // origin of the DIAL Chat host
+  visualizerName: string; // message namespace, must match the visualizer's appName
+  loaderStyles?: Styles; // overrides for the built-in loader styles
+  loaderClass?: string; // className applied to the loader element
+  loaderInnerHTML?: string; // custom loader markup (defaults to a built-in spinner SVG)
+  requestTimeout?: number; // per-request timeout in ms
+}
+```
+
+## Message naming
+
+Every message is namespaced with the visualizer name: `<visualizerName>/<TYPE>`. Responses are `<visualizerName>/<TYPE>/RESPONSE` and carry the originating `requestId`. Message types come from the `VisualizerConnectorRequests` and `VisualizerConnectorEvents` enums exported by `@epam/ai-dial-shared` — see the [event reference](../chat-visualizer-connector/README.md#event-and-request-types).
+
+Messages are accepted only from the connector's own iframe, so multiple connectors can coexist on one page.
+
+## API
+
+| Method                                      | Description                                                                                                                                                    |
+| ------------------------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
+| `constructor(root, options)`                | Creates the iframe and loader inside `root` (an element or a selector; throws if the selector matches nothing)                                                 |
+| `ready(): Promise<boolean>`                 | Resolves once the embedded page has sent `READY_TO_INTERACT`                                                                                                   |
+| `send(type, payload?, waitForReady = true)` | Sends a request and resolves with the response payload. Awaits `ready()` first unless `waitForReady` is `false`. Resolves `undefined` if destroyed or detached |
+| `subscribe(eventType, callback)`            | Subscribes to events sent without a `requestId`. Returns an unsubscribe function                                                                               |
+| `setVisualizerConnectorOptions(options)`    | Replaces the current options                                                                                                                                   |
+| `destroy()`                                 | Removes the listener, rejects pending work and removes the iframe and loader                                                                                   |
+
+## Loader
+
+A loader element is shown over the iframe from construction until the embedded page sends `READY` or `READY_TO_INTERACT`. By default it is an absolutely positioned, centred spinner SVG on a white background (`z-index: 2`); override it with `loaderClass`, `loaderStyles` or `loaderInnerHTML`.
+
+## Iframe sandbox
+
+The created iframe is sandboxed with `allow-same-origin`, `allow-scripts`, `allow-modals`, `allow-forms`, `allow-downloads`, `allow-popups` and `allow-presentation`, and permits `clipboard-write`, `fullscreen`, `accelerometer`, `gyroscope`, `autoplay`, `web-share` and `encrypted-media`. It loads lazily and fills its container.
