 **Filter before the network.** Consumer filters select records on the server so each reader receives only its matching subset of a topic and its partitions. The shared CDC example delivers **4 of 240 records** and saves **98.5% of payload transfer**. It preserves original payloads and offsets, supports exact-width typed headers, and acknowledges only completed work. See the [Consumer Filters guide](https://docs.laserdata.cloud/laser-sdk/consumer-filters) and the [three-language examples](https://github.com/laserdata/laser-sdk/tree/main/examples).

 Use a `user:password@host:port` connection string. The SDK supplies the Apache Iggy TCP scheme. Select a stream with `laser.stream(name)` and a topic with `.topic(name)`. `Laser.connectWithStream()` selects a default for the shorter `laser.topic(name)` form. It does not restrict stream access.
 
 `Laser.connectEnv()` reads `LASER_CONNECTION_STRING` and optional `LASER_STREAM`. `Laser.local()` uses the default local server. `Laser.builder()` accepts a connection string, separate credentials, or an Apache Iggy client. For an injected client, select whether Laser SDK owns or borrows it.
 
-For owned connections, the SDK retries initial connections and reconnects dropped sockets. The default is unlimited retries at one-second intervals. Set `reconnection_retries` to a non-negative integer to limit retries. Set `reconnection_interval` to a duration such as `250ms`, `1s`, or `1m`. The caller controls the lifecycle and reconnect policy of an injected client.
+For owned connections, the SDK retries a failed dial and reconnects dropped sockets, by default without limit at one-second intervals. The 30-second connect budget stops the retries of the initial connection. Add `reconnection_retries` to the connection string with a non-negative integer to limit retries, and `reconnection_interval` with a duration such as `250ms`, `1s`, or `1m`, for example `iggy:iggy@127.0.0.1:8090?reconnection_retries=5&reconnection_interval=250ms`.

 `group.filter()` provides `configure`, `get`, `revisions`, `revise`, `setRevisionEnabled`, `release`, `delete`, `preview` and `test`. `delete()` removes the group's own filter with every revision and releases the group first. Use `configureAs(operationId, policy)` when setup must resume with the same operation ID after a lost reply. `topic.consumerGroupId(id)` addresses the same saved group by numeric ID. Catalog failures, denied reads and paused revisions never broaden into unfiltered delivery. Original Apache Iggy uses native group consumption, while an older managed server without group-aware reads returns an explicit upgrade error.

Filtered readers use explicit acknowledgments, and keep at most 1024 unacknowledged record-bearing pages per partition by default, set with `maxUnackedPages`, so a reader that never acknowledges stops at that bound instead of growing without limit.

+Consumer-filter patterns use the server's bounded Rust regex engine. TypeScript validates structure and lets the server decide regex syntax. A local `CompiledFilter` refuses regex predicates, because only the server's engine defines their meaning. A filter permits four compiled glob or regex predicates, with a 256 KiB program budget each. Enabling `localGuard(true)` on a reader whose filter has regex predicates throws a `ConfigError` instead of skipping verification. Guards verify unevaluated records under the server's reported decoder bounds and the applicable pass policy.

-Publish attempts default to 60 seconds with three retries. Retry delays start at 250 milliseconds, double after each failure, and stop increasing at 30 seconds. Configure these values through the client builder or connect arguments. The corresponding environment variables are `LASER_PUBLISH_TIMEOUT_MS`, `LASER_PUBLISH_MAX_RETRIES`, and `LASER_PUBLISH_RETRY_BACKOFF_MS`. Explicit configuration overrides these variables. Exhausted retries return an error for the application to handle.
+0.6.0 changes several TypeScript signatures. A publish that gives up throws `PublishFailedError` around the original error, `Consumer.nextWithin` throws `TimeoutError` instead of returning `null`, and `Kv.expire` takes a lifetime while `expireAt` takes an absolute time. `ConsolidationReport` reports `summarized`, `reweighted`, `pruned`, and `derived`, and `Consolidator.consolidate(scope, signal?)` no longer receives a memory argument. Fork row embeddings take numbers. The [client behavior guide](../../docs/client-behavior.md) lists every change with its replacement.

+`laser.client` (a property) is the Apache Iggy escape hatch for native administrative or transport operations that Laser does not wrap.
+
+## Examples and verification
 
-**Filter fields inside JSON, CBOR, Avro, and Protobuf payloads on the server.** Avro and Protobuf use registered writer schemas, immutable schema IDs in the filter, and the `agdx.sid` header on each record. **Headers-only filters work with any payload format.** Filtering preserves original bytes and offsets. See the [Consumer Filters guide](https://docs.laserdata.cloud/laser-sdk/consumer-filters) for codec profiles and examples.
+The examples in [`examples/typescript`](../../examples/typescript/README.md) cover nine focused operations and nine larger applications. The shared scenarios under [`bdd/scenarios`](../../bdd/scenarios) describe behavior across clients.
 
-For an application checkpoint inside a filtered page, call `reader.ackThrough(record)` after persisting the checkpoint and processing all preceding records on that partition. Later records in the same page stay pending. Use `ackPage` when the whole page is complete. Regex predicates reject an enabled TypeScript local guard instead of silently skipping verification.
+```sh
+npm ci
+npm run verify
+```
 
-Consumer-filter patterns use the server's bounded Rust regex engine. TypeScript validates structure and lets the server decide regex syntax. A local `CompiledFilter` refuses regex predicates, because only the server's engine defines their meaning. A filter permits four compiled glob or regex predicates, with a 256 KiB program budget each. Local guards reject regex filters explicitly. Guards verify unevaluated records under the server's reported decoder bounds and the applicable pass policy.
+`verify` runs formatting, lint, dependency-boundary, type, build, API, unit, wire, coverage, license, and package tests. Integration and shared BDD tests run separately against the versioned native Iggy server.
