+Channel-based Message Queue System for Edda.
+
+This module provides Erlang/Elixir mailbox-style messaging with support for:
+- Broadcast mode: All subscribers receive all messages (fan-out pattern)
+- Competing mode: Each message is processed by only one subscriber (producer-consumer pattern)
+
+Key concepts:
+- Channel: A named message queue with persistent storage
+- Message: A data payload published to a channel
+- Subscription: A workflow's interest in receiving messages from a channel
+
+The channel system solves the "mailbox problem" where messages sent before
+`receive()` is called would be lost. Messages are always queued and persist
+until consumed.
+
+Example:
+    >>> from edda.channels import subscribe, receive, publish, ChannelMessage
+    >>>
+    >>> @workflow
+    ... async def worker(ctx: WorkflowContext, id: str):
+    ...     # Subscribe to a channel
+    ...     await subscribe(ctx, "tasks", mode="competing")
+    ...
+    ...     while True:
+    ...         # Receive messages (blocks until message available)
+    ...         msg = await receive(ctx, "tasks")
+    ...         await process(ctx, msg.data, activity_id=f"process:{msg.id}")
+    ...         await ctx.recur()
+    >>>
+    >>> @workflow
+    ... async def producer(ctx: WorkflowContext, task_data: dict):
+    ...     await publish(ctx, "tasks", task_data)
