+### `isObservable`
+
+Checks if a value is an RxJS Observable or any compatible observable.
+
+Uses duck-typing: returns `true` for any object with both `.subscribe()` and
+`.pipe()` methods, covering `Observable`, `Subject`, `BehaviorSubject`,
+`ReplaySubject`, and any RxJS-compatible observable implementation.
+
+```typescript
+import { isObservable } from '@helpers4/observable';
+
+isObservable(value: unknown): value is Observable<unknown>
+```
+
+**Parameters:**
+
+- `value: unknown` — The value to check
+
+**Returns:** `value is Observable<unknown>` — `true` if value is observable-like
+
+**Examples:**
+
+*Detect an RxJS Observable or Subject*
+
+Returns true for Observable, Subject, BehaviorSubject, and any duck-typed observable.
+
+```typescript
+import { Observable, Subject } from 'rxjs';
+isObservable(new Observable())  // => true
+isObservable(new Subject())     // => true
+isObservable(Promise.resolve()) // => false
+isObservable({})                // => false
+```
+
+*Accept either an Observable or a plain value*
+
+Use as a guard to normalize inputs that may be Observables or raw values.
+
+```typescript
+import { Observable, of } from 'rxjs';
+function toObservable<T>(value: T | Observable<T>): Observable<T> {
+  return isObservable(value) ? value : of(value);
