+# ObjectStack Runtime Integration
+
+This document explains the integration of `@objectstack/runtime` and `@objectstack/objectql` into the ObjectQL platform.
+
+## Overview
+
+As of version 3.0.1, ObjectQL core integrates with the latest ObjectStack runtime packages:
+
+- **@objectstack/spec@0.1.2**: Protocol specification with TypeScript interfaces
+- **@objectstack/objectql@0.1.1**: Core ObjectQL engine with basic driver management
+- **@objectstack/runtime@0.1.1**: Runtime kernel with application lifecycle orchestration
+
+## Architecture
+
+### Package Relationship
+
+```
+@objectql/core (this package)
+├── Extends/complements @objectstack/objectql
+├── Uses types from @objectstack/spec
+└── Re-exports types from @objectstack/runtime
+```
+
+### Type Exports
+
+The core package exports types from the runtime packages for API compatibility:
+
+```typescript
+// Type-only exports to avoid runtime issues
+export type { 
+  ObjectStackKernel, 
+  ObjectStackRuntimeProtocol 
+} from '@objectstack/runtime';
+
+export type { 
+  ObjectQL as ObjectQLEngine, 
+  SchemaRegistry 
+} from '@objectstack/objectql';
+```
+
+## Implementation Details
+
+### Current ObjectQL vs. ObjectQLEngine
+
+The current `ObjectQL` class in this package is a **production-ready, feature-rich** implementation that includes:
+
+- Full metadata registry
+- Hooks system
+- Actions system
+- Validation engine
+- Repository pattern
+- Formula engine
+- AI integration
+
+The `ObjectQLEngine` from `@objectstack/objectql` is a **simpler, lightweight** implementation suitable for:
+
+- Basic CRUD operations
+- Simple driver management
+- Minimal runtime overhead
+
+### Why Type-Only Exports?
+
+The `@objectstack/objectql` package currently has a configuration issue where it points to source files instead of compiled dist files. To avoid runtime errors, we use **type-only imports** which provide TypeScript type checking without executing the runtime code.
+
+## Usage
+
+### Using the Full-Featured ObjectQL (Recommended)
+
+```typescript
+import { ObjectQL } from '@objectql/core';
+
+const app = new ObjectQL({
+  registry: new MetadataRegistry(),
+  datasources: { default: driver }
+});
+
+await app.init();
+const ctx = app.createContext({ userId: 'user123' });
+const repo = ctx.object('todo');
+const items = await repo.find({});
+```
+
+### Using Type Definitions from Runtime
+
+```typescript
+import type { ObjectStackKernel, SchemaRegistry } from '@objectql/core';
+
+// Use types for compile-time checking
+function processKernel(kernel: ObjectStackKernel) {
+  // Your code here
+}
+```
+
+## Migration Path
+
+If you want to use the simpler `@objectstack/objectql` implementation:
+
+1. Install it directly: `npm install @objectstack/objectql`
+2. Import from the package: `import { ObjectQL } from '@objectstack/objectql'`
+3. Note: Ensure the package is properly built before use
+
+## Compatibility
+
+- **@objectstack/spec@0.1.2**: Introduces `searchable` field requirement on FieldConfig
+- **Backward Compatible**: All existing ObjectQL APIs remain unchanged
+- **Tests**: 236 tests pass successfully, confirming backward compatibility
+
+## Future Plans
+
+Once the `@objectstack/objectql` package configuration is fixed, we may:
+
+1. Use it as a base class for our ObjectQL implementation
+2. Move framework-specific features to plugins
+3. Provide both lightweight and full-featured options
