+## [0.1.52] — 2026-03-28
+
+### Added
+
+- **PA-3 — Stable Schema, Save & Wire Contract (complete):**
+  - `src/schema-migration.ts` (new): schema versioning and migration utilities — `SCHEMA_VERSION`, `stampSnapshot`, `validateSnapshot` (returns `ValidationError[]` with JSONPath paths), `migrateWorld` (chains registered migrations; legacy saves treated as version `"0.0"`), `registerMigration`, `detectVersion`, `isValidSnapshot`.
+  - `schema/world.schema.json` (new): JSON Schema 2020-12 for `WorldState` — documents `@core` fields (`tick`, `seed`, `entities` with per-entity validation), `@subsystem` fields, and Q-value semantics.
+  - `schema/replay.schema.json` (new): JSON Schema 2020-12 for `Replay` / `ReplayFrame` / `Command`.
+  - `docs/wire-protocol.md` (new): Q-value serialisation rules (store raw integers, never divide by `SCALE.Q`), binary diff format (ANKD magic, tag-value encoding), multiplayer lockstep message types (`cmd`/`ack`/`resync`/`hash_mismatch`), save-format recommendations, and full load-with-migration code sample.
+  - `"./schema"` subpath added to `package.json` exports.
+  - `schema/` directory and `docs/wire-protocol.md` added to `package.json` `"files"`.
+- 39 new tests (183 test files, 5,300 tests total). Build: clean.

+# Ananke — Wire Protocol & Save Format
+
+This document specifies how Ananke state is serialised for persistence, replay, and
+network transport.  All formats are deterministic: the same simulation state always
+produces the same bytes.
+
+---
+
+## 1. Concepts
+
+| Term | Meaning |
+|------|---------|
+| **Snapshot** | A serialised `WorldState` — complete enough to resume simulation |
+| **Replay** | An initial snapshot + a sequence of command frames |
+| **Diff** | A compact binary diff between two consecutive snapshots (CE-9) |
+| **Wire message** | A single unit transmitted between host and client over the network |
+| **Q value** | A fixed-point integer scaled by `SCALE.Q = 10 000` (e.g. `q(0.75) = 7500`) |
+
+---
+
+## 2. JSON Snapshot Format
+
+JSON is the recommended format for long-term save files and editor tooling.
+
+### 2.1 Deterministic key ordering
+
+When computing hash-checks across clients, keys must appear in insertion order.
+The canonical TypeScript implementation (`JSON.stringify`) preserves insertion
+order for string keys.  Third-party deserializers must preserve or sort keys
+identically.
+
+### 2.2 Q values
+
+All `Q`-typed fields are serialised as plain integers.  Do **not** divide by
+`SCALE.Q` before saving — the raw integer is the canonical representation.
+
+```json
+{ "fearQ": 7500 }    // correct — q(0.75)
+{ "fearQ": 0.75 }    // WRONG — will cause precision loss and replay divergence
+```
+
+### 2.3 Maps
+
+JavaScript `Map` instances do not serialise to JSON automatically.  Ananke
+serialises `Map<K, V>` as an array of `[K, V]` pairs:
+
+```json
+{ "__nutritionAccum": 0 }
+```
+
+> Note: `__nutritionAccum` was simplified to a scalar in v0.1.  If a `Map`
+> field is added in a future version, its pairs will use the array format above.
+
+### 2.4 Version stamping
+
+Always call `stampSnapshot(world, "world")` before persisting.  This adds
+`_ananke_version` and `_schema` fields that enable forward migration:
+
+```typescript
+import { stampSnapshot } from "@its-not-rocket-science/ananke/schema";
+// or: import { stampSnapshot } from "@ananke/core";   (when published)
+
+const save = JSON.stringify(stampSnapshot(world, "world"), null, 2);
+```
+
+### 2.5 JSON Schema files
+
+Canonical schemas ship with the package:
+
+| File | Validates |
+|------|-----------|
+| `schema/world.schema.json` | `WorldState` snapshots |
+| `schema/replay.schema.json` | `Replay` objects |
+
+Use `validateSnapshot(raw)` from `@its-not-rocket-science/ananke/schema` to
+check conformance programmatically before calling `stepWorld`.
+
+---
+
+## 3. Binary Diff Format
+
+For tick-to-tick state synchronisation (multiplayer, streaming), use the binary
+diff format implemented in `src/snapshot.ts`.
+
+### 3.1 Encoding
+
+```
+[magic: "ANKD" (4 bytes)] [version: 1 (u8)] [payload: tag-value stream]
+```
+
+Tag values:
+
+| Tag | Byte | Encodes |
+|-----|------|---------|
+| NULL | 0x00 | `null` |
+| TRUE | 0x01 | `true` |
+| FALSE | 0x02 | `false` |
+| UINT8 | 0x10 | Unsigned integer 0–255 |
+| INT32 | 0x11 | Signed 32-bit integer (big-endian) |
+| FLOAT64 | 0x12 | IEEE 754 double (big-endian) — use only for non-Q floats |
+| STRING | 0x20 | Length-prefixed UTF-8 |
+| ARRAY | 0x30 | Length-prefixed sequence of tag-value items |
+| OBJECT | 0x40 | Length-prefixed sequence of (string key, tag-value) pairs |
+
+### 3.2 Usage
+
+```typescript
+import { diffWorldState, packDiff, unpackDiff, applyDiff } from "@its-not-rocket-science/ananke";
+
+// Sender
+const diff   = diffWorldState(prevState, nextState);
+const bytes  = packDiff(diff);
+socket.send(bytes);
+
+// Receiver
+const diff2  = unpackDiff(bytes);
+const state2 = applyDiff(prevState, diff2);
+```
+
+### 3.3 Determinism guarantee
+
+A diff produced from identical states must produce identical bytes.  Do not
+include wall-clock timestamps or random nonces in diff payloads.
+
+---
+
+## 4. Multiplayer Message Protocol
+
+For lockstep multiplayer, hosts exchange command frames rather than full state.
+
+### 4.1 Message types
+
+| `kind` | Direction | Payload |
+|--------|-----------|---------|
+| `"cmd"` | Client → Server | `{ tick, commands: Command[] }` |
+| `"ack"` | Server → Client | `{ tick, stateHash: number }` |
+| `"resync"` | Server → Client | `{ tick, snapshot: WorldState }` |
+| `"hash_mismatch"` | Server → Client | `{ tick, expected: number, got: number }` |
+
+### 4.2 State hash
+
+Use the built-in tick counter and entity count as a cheap hash for divergence
+detection:
+
+```typescript
+function stateHash(world: WorldState): number {
+  return world.tick * 0x10000 + (world.entities.length & 0xFFFF);
+}
+```
+
+A full structural hash is more robust but expensive; use it only on resync.
+
+### 4.3 Lockstep loop
+
+```
+┌──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
+│ Client                       Server                      │
+│                                                          │
+│ collect commands ──── cmd ──► apply to authoritative     │
+│                               state                      │
+│                   ◄── ack ─── broadcast stateHash        │
+│ verify hash                                              │
+│ if mismatch ─── resync req ─► send full snapshot        │
+│                ◄── resync ──                             │
+│ restore snapshot                                         │
+└──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
+```
+
+### 4.4 Transport encoding
+
+Use JSON for development and debugging.  For production, encode wire messages
+as CBOR (RFC 8949) or MessagePack for ~30% size reduction.  The message
+structure is identical; only the outer encoding changes.
+
+---
+
+## 5. Save File Recommendations
+
+| Scenario | Format | Compression |
+|----------|--------|-------------|
+| Development / debugging | JSON (pretty-printed) | none |
+| Production saves | JSON (compact) | gzip or zstd |
+| Network sync (full state) | JSON or CBOR | none (already compact) |
+| Network sync (incremental) | Binary diff (`packDiff`) | none |
+| Replay archives | JSON replay schema | zstd |
+
+---
+
+## 6. Migration
+
+Load a save and bring it to the current schema version before simulating:
+
+```typescript
+import {
+  migrateWorld, validateSnapshot, stampSnapshot,
+} from "@its-not-rocket-science/ananke/schema";
+
+function loadSave(json: string): WorldState {
+  const raw      = JSON.parse(json) as Record<string, unknown>;
+  const migrated = migrateWorld(raw);          // no-op until 0.2 is released
+  const errors   = validateSnapshot(migrated);
+  if (errors.length > 0) {
+    throw new Error(`Invalid save: ${errors.map(e => `${e.path}: ${e.message}`).join("; ")}`);
+  }
+  return migrated as WorldState;
+}
+```
+
