+# @nxtedition/scheduler
+
+A high-performance, priority-based task scheduler for Node.js with support for concurrency limiting and multi-worker coordination via `SharedArrayBuffer`.
+
+## Install
+
+```sh
+npm install @nxtedition/scheduler
+```
+
+## Usage
+
+### Basic
+
+```js
+import { Scheduler } from '@nxtedition/scheduler'
+
+const scheduler = new Scheduler({ concurrency: 4 })
+
+const result = await scheduler.run(async () => {
+  const res = await fetch('https://example.com')
+  return res.json()
+})
+```
+
+### Priority
+
+Seven priority levels are available:
+
+| Name      | Value |
+| --------- | ----- |
+| `lowest`  | -3    |
+| `lower`   | -2    |
+| `low`     | -1    |
+| `normal`  | 0     |
+| `high`    | 1     |
+| `higher`  | 2     |
+| `highest` | 3     |
+
+```js
+// Using string priority
+await scheduler.run(() => importantWork(), 'high')
+
+// Using static constants
+await scheduler.run(() => backgroundWork(), Scheduler.LOW)
+```
+
+### Low-Level API
+
+For more control, use `acquire` / `release` directly:
+
+```js
+scheduler.acquire(
+  (opaque) => {
+    try {
+      doWork(opaque)
+    } finally {
+      scheduler.release()
+    }
+  },
+  Scheduler.NORMAL,
+  opaqueData,
+)
+```
+
+### Multi-Worker Coordination
+
+Share a concurrency limit across worker threads using `SharedArrayBuffer`:
+
+```js
+// Main thread
+import { Scheduler } from '@nxtedition/scheduler'
+import { Worker } from 'node:worker_threads'
+
+const sharedState = Scheduler.makeSharedState(8)
+const worker = new Worker('./worker.js', { workerData: sharedState })
+
+// Worker thread
+import { Scheduler } from '@nxtedition/scheduler'
+import { workerData } from 'node:worker_threads'
+
+const scheduler = new Scheduler(workerData)
+await scheduler.run(() => work())
+```
+
+### UV Thread Pool Scheduling
+
+A practical use case is coordinating access to the libuv thread pool (`UV_THREADPOOL_SIZE`) across multiple worker threads. For example, several HTTP file-serving workers can share a scheduler so that file-system operations (which consume UV thread pool slots) are prioritized and throttled globally:
+
+```js
+// main.js
+import { Scheduler } from '@nxtedition/scheduler'
+import { Worker } from 'node:worker_threads'
+
+const UV_THREADPOOL_SIZE = parseInt(process.env.UV_THREADPOOL_SIZE || '4', 10)
+const sharedState = Scheduler.makeSharedState(UV_THREADPOOL_SIZE)
+
+for (let i = 0; i < 4; i++) {
+  new Worker('./http-worker.js', { workerData: { sharedState } })
+}
+```
+
+```js
+// http-worker.js
+import { Scheduler, parsePriority } from '@nxtedition/scheduler'
+import { workerData } from 'node:worker_threads'
+import fs from 'node:fs/promises'
+
+const scheduler = new Scheduler(workerData.sharedState)
+
+async function handleRequest(req, res) {
+  // Derive priority from a request header, e.g. "X-Priority: high"
+  const priority = parsePriority(req.headers['x-priority'] || 'normal')
+
+  const data = await scheduler.run(() => fs.readFile(filePath), priority)
+  res.end(data)
+}
+```
+
+This ensures that high-priority requests get file-system access first, while low-priority background work (thumbnails, transcoding, etc.) yields thread pool capacity without starving entirely — thanks to the built-in starvation prevention.
+
+### Monitoring
+
+```js
+const { running, pending, deferred, queues } = scheduler.stats
+```
+
+- `running` — currently executing tasks
+- `pending` — tasks waiting in queues
+- `deferred` — total tasks that were queued (lifetime counter)
+- `queues` — per-priority queue counts
+
+## API
+
+### `new Scheduler(opts)`
+
+- `opts.concurrency` — max concurrent tasks (default: `Infinity`)
+- `opts` may also be a `SharedArrayBuffer` created by `Scheduler.makeSharedState()`
+
+### `scheduler.run(fn, priority?, opaque?): Promise<T>`
+
+Execute `fn` within the scheduler. Returns a promise that resolves with the return value of `fn`.
+
+### `scheduler.acquire(fn, priority?, opaque?): void`
+
+Low-level task acquisition. You **must** call `scheduler.release()` when done.
+
+### `scheduler.release(): void`
+
+Signal task completion. Dequeues the next pending task if concurrency allows.
+
+### `Scheduler.makeSharedState(concurrency): SharedArrayBuffer`
+
+Create shared state for cross-worker scheduling.
+
+### `parsePriority(value): number`
+
+Parse a string or number into a normalized priority value.
