+# Runtime & Unit of Work
+
+This page describes MetalORM's optional entity runtime:
+
+- `OrmContext` – the Unit of Work.
+- entities – proxies wrapping hydrated rows.
+- relation wrappers – lazy, batched collections and references.
+
+## OrmContext
+
+`OrmContext` owns:
+
+- a SQL dialect,
+- a DB executor (`executeSql(sql, params)`),
+- an identity map (`table + primaryKey → entity`),
+- change tracking for entities and relations,
+- hooks and (optionally) domain event dispatch.
+
+```ts
+const ctx = new OrmContext({
+  dialect: new MySqlDialect(),
+  db: {
+    async executeSql(sql, params) {
+      // call your DB driver here
+    }
+  }
+});
+```
+
+## Entities
+
+Entities are created when you call `.execute(ctx)` on a SelectQueryBuilder.
+
+They:
+
+- expose table columns as properties (user.id, user.name, …)
+- expose relations as wrappers:
+  - HasManyCollection<T> (e.g. user.posts)
+  - BelongsToReference<T> (e.g. post.author)
+  - ManyToManyCollection<T> (e.g. user.roles)
+- track changes to fields and collections for the Unit of Work.
+
+```ts
+const [user] = await new SelectQueryBuilder(users)
+  .select({ id: users.columns.id, name: users.columns.name })
+  .includeLazy('posts')
+  .execute(ctx);
+
+user.name = 'Updated Name';          // marks entity as Dirty
+const posts = await user.posts.load(); // lazy-batched load
+```
+
+## Unit of Work
+
+Each entity in an OrmContext has a status:
+
+- New – created in memory and not yet persisted.
+- Managed – loaded from the database and unchanged.
+- Dirty – modified scalar properties.
+- Removed – scheduled for deletion.
+
+Relations track:
+
+- additions (add, attach, syncByIds),
+- removals (remove, detach).
+
+`ctx.saveChanges()`:
+
+- runs hooks / interceptors,
+- flushes entity changes as INSERT / UPDATE / DELETE,
+- flushes relation changes (FK / pivot),
+- dispatches domain events (optional),
+- resets tracking.
+
+```ts
+user.posts.add({ title: 'From entities' });
+user.posts.remove(posts[0]);
+
+await ctx.saveChanges();
+```
+
+## Hooks & Domain Events
+
+Each TableDef can define hooks:
+
+```ts
+const users = defineTable('users', { /* ... */ }, undefined, {
+  hooks: {
+    beforeInsert(ctx, user) {
+      user.createdAt = new Date();
+    },
+    afterUpdate(ctx, user) {
+      // log audit event
+    },
+  },
+});
+```
+
+Entities may accumulate domain events:
+
+```ts
+addDomainEvent(user, new UserRegisteredEvent(user.id));
+```
+
+After flushing, the context dispatches these events to registered handlers or writes them to an outbox table.
