+/**
+ * Interface for workbook input/output operations across multiple source types and formats.
+ *
+ * @remarks
+ * This interface provides a flexible I/O system with **two independent dimensions**:
+ *
+ * ### **Source Type** (Where/How data is stored)
+ * The physical location or container of the workbook data:
+ * - **File**: Local file system files (`File` objects)
+ * - **Blob**: Binary data blobs (from canvas, clipboard, etc.)
+ * - **URL/Fetch**: Remote resources fetched via HTTP/HTTPS
+ * - **ArrayBuffer**: Raw binary data in memory
+ * - **Base64**: Base64-encoded strings
+ * - **Stream**: Streaming data (`ReadableStream`)
+ *
+ * ### **Format Type** (How data is encoded)
+ * The encoding/file format of the workbook data:
+ * - **sxl**: SheetXL format
+ * - **xlsx**: Excel 2007+ format (Office Open XML)
+ * - **csv**: Comma-separated values
+ * - **xml**: Excel 2003 XML format
+ * - And other registered formats
+ *
+ * ### How They Work Together
+ * Any **source type** can contain any **format type**. For example:
+ * - A `File` could contain `sxl`, `xlsx`, `csv` data
+ * - A `URL` could point to an `sxl`, `xlsx`, or `csv` file
+ * - An `ArrayBuffer` could hold `sxl`, `xlsx`, or `csv` data
+ *
+ * The system automatically detects the format type from:
+ * - File extensions (`.xlsx`, `.csv`, etc.)
+ * - MIME types (`application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.spreadsheetml.sheet`)
+ * - Content sniffing (examining the actual data)
+ *
+ * @example
+ * ```typescript
+ * // Example 1: File source with xlsx format
+ * const wb = await WorkbookIO.read({ source: fileObject }); // Auto-detects .xlsx
+ *
+ * // Example 2: URL source with csv format
+ * const wb = await WorkbookIO.read({ source: 'https://example.com/data.csv' });
+ *
+ * // Example 3: ArrayBuffer source with explicit format
+ * const wb = await WorkbookIO.read({
+ *   source: arrayBuffer,
+ *   format: 'xlsx' // Format can't be auto-detected or forced
+ * });
+ * ```
+ */
+export interface IWorkbookIO extends IListener.ISource<IWorkbookIO, IWorkbookIO.Events>, ITransaction.ICommitSource {
+    /**
+     * Reads a workbook from any source type with automatic format detection.
+     *
+     * @param sourceOrOptions Configuration specifying the source and optional format. Can also be passed
+     *   directly as a `string` (URL, path, or data URI) as a shorthand for `{ source: string }`. Omit
+     *   the source entirely to let the active {@link IWorkbookIO.IBackingStore} resolve one (e.g. an

+     *
+     * @returns A promise resolving to the decoded {@link IWorkbook}, or `null` if no source was
+     *   resolved (e.g. the user cancelled an open picker). All read metadata — path, display name,
+     *   resource type (format), size — lives on the workbook's {@link IWorkbook.getOrigin | origin}
+     *   handle; there is no separate details object.

+     * @throws {Error} When no appropriate format handler is available for the detected format
+     * @throws {Error} When the read operation fails (corrupt file, network error, etc.)
+     *
+     * @remarks
+     * ## Source Type Automatic-Detection
+     * The method automatically determines the **source type** (where data comes from):
+     *
+     * | Input Pattern | Detected Source Type | Example |
+     * |--------------|---------------------|---------|
+     * | `{ base64: "..." }` | Base64 string | `{ base64: "iVBORw0K..." }` |
+     * | `{ input: "..." }` | Fetch/URL | `{ input: "https://api.example.com" }` |
+     * | String starting with `data:` | Base64 data URI | `"data:application/json;base64,..."` |
+     * | String starting with `http://` or `https://` | Remote URL | `"https://example.com/file.xlsx"` |
+     * | String starting with `/`, `./`, `../` | Relative/absolute path | `"./data/workbook.csv"` |
+     * | Other strings | Treated as URL/path | `"workbook.xlsx"` |
+     * | `File` object | Browser File API | `<input type="file">` result |
+     * | `Blob` object | Binary data blob | Canvas, clipboard, etc. |
+     * | `ArrayBuffer` or TypedArray | Binary buffer | Raw bytes in memory |
+     * | `ReadableStream` | Streaming data | Converted to buffer first |
+     * | `Promise<T>` | Async source | Resolved, then re-detected |
+     * | `() => T` | Lazy source | Invoked, then re-detected |
+     *
+     * ## Format Type Automatic-Detection
+     * The method automatically determines the **format type** (how data is encoded):
+     * 1. **File extension** from source name (`.sxl`, `.xlsx`, `.csv`)
+     * 2. **MIME type** from HTTP response headers
+     * 3. **Content inspection** by examining magic bytes/signatures
+     * 4. **Explicit format** via `options.format`
+     *
+     * @example
+     * ```typescript
+     * // Auto-detect everything from a File object
+     * const wb = await WorkbookIO.read({ source: fileInput.files[0] });
+     * console.log(wb!.getName(), wb!.getOrigin().getPath());
+     *
+     * // Fetch from URL (auto-detects format from extension or Content-Type)
+     * const wb = await WorkbookIO.read({
+     *   source: 'https://example.com/spreadsheet.xlsx'
+     * });
+     *
+     * // ArrayBuffer with explicit format (can't be auto-detected)
+     * const wb = await WorkbookIO.read({
+     *   source: sxlArrayBuffer,
+     *   format: 'sxl'
+     * });
+     *
+     * // Lazy loading with progress callback
+     * const wb = await WorkbookIO.read({
+     *   source: async () => await fetch('/api/workbook').then(r => r.arrayBuffer()),
+     *   progress: (amount) => console.log(`${amount}%:`)
+     * });
+     * ```

+     * @remarks
+     * **Save** (`write(workbook)`): the destination is the workbook's origin. A bound, writable
+     * origin is re-saved silently. An unbound or read-only origin makes the store resolve a
+     * destination (a save dialog in the browser; an error in bare Node) — and on success the IO
+     * layer **fills that origin in place**, so the next save is silent. The rule: *the store fills
+     * in a handle it resolved itself; it never overrides a handle the caller supplied.*
+     *
+     * **Export** (`write(workbook, target)`): writes a copy to the target. The workbook's origin —
+     * its identity — is never touched, and the export does **not** mark the workbook clean
+     * ({@link IWorkbookIO.addCommitListener} fires for saves only). Re-targeting a workbook ("Save
+     * As") is {@link IWorkbookIO.writeAs} — the explicit rebind verb.
+     *
+     * Replacing the store (via {@link IWorkbookIO.setBackingStore}) redirects writing entirely — e.g.
+     * a VSCode extension posting bytes to the editor host, or a CLI prompting in the terminal.
+     *
+     * ### **Format Type** Auto-Detection
+     * If `options.format` is not provided, it is inferred from the destination's extension (the
+     * explicit target, else the workbook's origin). There is no implicit default.
+     *
+     * @example
+     * ```typescript
+     * // Save — back to the workbook's origin (or resolve a destination if it has none).
+     * const details = await workbookIO.write(workbook);
