 - gRPC support: `Svrnty.CQRS.Grpc/` runtime, `Svrnty.CQRS.Grpc.Generators/` source generators
 - Sample application: `Svrnty.Sample/` - demonstrates both HTTP and gRPC integration

+## GRAPH.md Maintenance
+
+This repo contains a `GRAPH.md` file with unicode cascade diagrams showing the
+architecture. **You MUST update GRAPH.md whenever you**:
+- Add, remove, or rename modules, directories, or major components
+- Change data flow, dependencies, or integration points
+- Modify the public API surface or protocol contracts
+
+Keep the diagrams accurate. They are read by non-technical stakeholders.
