-`Sigil` replaces `instanceof` across bundles, enforces nominal class identity, and makes inheritance-aware runtime type checks reliable in large TypeScript systems. It organizes class identities across your codebase and gives you the power of **nominal typing** and **safe cross-bundle class checks** where each class constructor is stored under a unique label.
+`Sigil` gives you the power of **safe cross-bundle class instances checks** and **simple class nominal typing** if needed.
 
 > **Key ideas:**
 >
-> - **Reliable Runtime Checks:** Uses labels instead of instanceof for cross-bundle reliability.
+> - **Reliable Runtime Checks:** Uses `isOfType` instead of `instanceof` for cross-bundle reliability.
 > - **Nominal Typing at Compile Time:** Distinguishes structurally similar types (e.g., UserId vs. PostId).
-> - **Inheritance Awareness:** Tracks lineages for subtype/supertype checks.
-
-## Important Notes Before Using
-
-- **Explicit class identity:** `Sigil` uses passed class label to identify classes, which means that the developer is responsible for uniqueness of classes by passing unique labels.
-- **Simple instanceof Fix:** If you just need runtime checks without extras, see the [minimal mode](#minimal-mode).
 
 ## Features
 
 - ✅ **Drop-in `instanceof` replacement** that works across bundles, HMR, and monorepos, Also can check for **exact class instance**
-- ✅ **True nominal typing** with zero runtime cost
-- ✅ **Tiny less than 1.5 KB minified and brotlied** measured using size-limit
+- ✅ **Simple nominal typing** with just one line of code for each class
+- ✅ **Tiny less than 1.5 KB minified and brotlied** measured using [size-limit](https://www.npmjs.com/package/size-limit)
 - ✅ **Performant as native instanceof** but with guaranteed checks
+- ✅ **Test coverage is 100%** to ensure that runtime remains consistent and predictable

 - `Sigil`: a minimal sigilified base class you can extend from.
 - `SigilError`: an `Error` class decorated with a `Sigil` so it can be identified at runtime.
-- `Sigilify(Base, label?, opts?)`: mixin function that returns a new constructor with `Sigil` types and instance helpers.
-- `WithSigil(label)`: class decorator that attaches `Sigil` metadata at declaration time.
-- `withSigil(Class, label?, opts?)`: HOF that validates and decorates an existing class constructor.
+- `Sigilify(Base, label, opts?)`: mixin function that returns a new constructor with `Sigil` types and instance helpers.

+- `WithSigil(label, opts?)`: class decorator that attaches `Sigil` metadata at declaration time.
+- `withSigil(Class, label, opts?)`: HOF that validates and decorates an existing class constructor.
 - `isSigilCtor(value)`: `true` if `value` is a `Sigil` constructor.
 - `isSigilInstance(value)`: `true` if `value` is an instance of a `Sigil` constructor.
-- `updateSigilOptions(opts)`: change global runtime options before `Sigil` decoration (e.g., `autofillLabels`).
+- `updateSigilOptions(opts)`: change global runtime options of `Sigil` library (e.g., `autofillLabels`).
 - `DEFAULT_LABEL_REGEX`: regex that ensures structure of `@scope/package.ClassName` to all labels, it's advised to use it as your `SigilOptions.labelValidation`

+## Tests
+
+Reliability is a core pillar of `Sigil`. The library is backed by a comprehensive suite of unit tests that cover everything from basic mixins to lazy evaluation.
+
+**Coverage Status**
+
+We maintain **100%** test coverage across the entire codebase to ensure that runtime metadata remains consistent and predictable.
+
+| Metric | Score |
+| ------ | ----- |
+| Stmts  | 100%  |
+| Branch | 100%  |
+| Funcs  | 100%  |
+| Lines  | 100%  |
+
+**Key Test Areas**
+
+- **Mixins, Decorators & HOFs:** Validating `Sigilify`, `WithSigil` and `withSigil` behaviors.
+- **Sigil methods:** Ensuring `Sigil` class methods (e.g. `SigilLabel`, `getSigilLabel`) work as expected.
+- **Lazy Evaluation:** Ensuring metadata is attached before being accessed via `Sigil` methods.
+- **Lineage:** Verifying that `isOfType` and `isExactType` work across complex inheritance chains.
+- **Error Handling:** Strict validation for all errors and throws.
+
+**Running Tests**
+
+To run the test suite locally and generate a coverage report, fetch source code from [github](https://github.com/ZiadTaha62/sigil) then:

+```bash
+npm install
+npm run test:unit
