-## The Problem
+## ⚠️ The Problem
 
 When working with deep object structures, forms, or nested state, we often rely on string-based paths (e.g., `"users.0.name"` or `"company.departments[1].budget"`). This approach is fundamentally flawed in modern TypeScript development:

-## Philosophy
+## 🤖 AI Ready
+
+This package is available in [Context7](https://context7.com/) MCP, so AI assistants can load it directly into context when working with your object property paths.
+
+It also ships an [Agent Skills](https://agentskills.io/) – compatible skill. Install it so your AI assistant loads data-path guidance:
+
+```bash
+npx ctx7 skills install /sergeyshmakov/data-path data-path
+```
+
+The skill lives in [skills/data-path/SKILL.md](skills/data-path/SKILL.md).
+
+## 💡 Philosophy
 
 - **Stack Agnostic:** Pure data manipulation. Works perfectly with React, Vue, Node.js, or vanilla JavaScript.
 - **Zero Dependencies:** A tiny, efficient footprint that doesn't bloat your bundle.
 - **Fully Type-Safe:** Built strictly for TypeScript. If the structure changes, the compiler will instantly catch broken paths.
 - **Immutable:** All `.set()` operations return structurally cloned objects, making it the perfect companion for modern state managers (Redux, Zustand) and reactive frameworks.
 
-## Core API
+## 📚 Core API
+
+### 🏷️ API Cheatsheet
+
+| API | Description |
+|-----|-------------|
+| **Creation** | |
+| `path<T>()` | Create root path |
+| `path<T>(p => p.a.b)` | Create path from lambda, generic type |
+| `path((p: T) => p.a.b)` | Create path from lambda, infer type |
+| `path(base, p => p.c)` | Extend existing path |
+| `unsafePath<T>("a.b")` | Create path from raw string |
+| **Properties** | |
+| `path.$` | String representation (e.g. `"users.0.name"`) |
+| `path.segments` | Array of segments |
+| `path.length` | Number of segments |
+| `path.fn` | Accessor function for `.map()`, `.filter()` |
+| **Data Access** | |
+| `path.get(data)` | Read value at path (returns `undefined` if missing) |
+| `path.set(data, value)` | Immutable write, returns new object |
+| **Traversal** | |
+| `path.to(p => p.x)` | Extend path from current value |
+| `path.each(p => p.x)` | Template: match all items in collection |
+| `path.each().to(p => p.x)` | Same as above |
+| `path.deep(node => node.id)` | Template: match property at any depth |
+| **Manipulation** | |
+| `path.merge(other)` | Append path (deduplicates overlap) |
+| `path.subtract(other)` | Remove prefix/suffix, or `null` |
+| `path.slice(start?, end?)` | Slice segments (like `Array.prototype.slice`) |
+| **Relational** | |
+| `path.startsWith(other)` | True if path is prefix |
+| `path.includes(other)` | True if path contains other |
+| `path.equals(other)` | True if paths are identical |
+| `path.match(other)` | Returns `{ relation, params }` or `null` |
+| **Template-only** | |
+| `templatePath.expand(data)` | Resolve template to concrete paths |

-## Real-World Examples
+### Utility Types
+
+The library exports several TypeScript types that are useful when writing helper functions or React components that accept paths as props:
+
+```typescript
+import type { Path, TemplatePath, ResolvedType } from "data-path";
+
+// 1. Accept a specific path structure
+function NameInput({ fieldPath }: { fieldPath: Path<User, string> }) {
+    return <input name={fieldPath.$} />;
+}
+
+// 2. Extract the resolved value type from an existing path
+const agePath = path<User>(p => p.profile.age);
+type Age = ResolvedType<typeof agePath>; // number
