+
+## 🚀 Quick TL;DR
+
+**What:** Lifecycle management framework for Unity components  
+**Why:** Guaranteed initialization order, foolproof patterns, built-in save/load  
+**How:** Inherit from `ManagedBehaviour` instead of `MonoBehaviour`
+
+```csharp
+public class MyComponent : ManagedBehaviour
+{
+    internal override void OnManagedAwake()
+    {
+        // Early init (singleton setup)
+    }
+
+    internal override void OnManagedStart()
+    {
+        // Late init (managers ready)
+    }
+}
+```
+
+---
+
+## 🔮 Future Improvements (TL;DR)
+
+The system is **production-ready as-is**, but here are potential enhancements for the future:
+
+### Short-Term (Next Sprint):
+1. **Remove unused lifecycle lists** (15 min) - Clean up saveRequestedList, etc.
+2. **Add debug visualization** (1-2 days) - Help developers understand lifecycle flow
+
+### Long-Term (When Needed):
+1. **SaveId collision detection tool** (1 day)
+   - Editor window to detect duplicate SaveIds
+   - Prevents save data bugs
+
+2. **Scene-based dictionaries optimization** (2-3 days)
+   - **Current:** Check all 1000 components to find 100 in scene (O(n))
+   - **Optimized:** Direct lookup to scene components (O(k))
+   - **When:** Games with >1000 components
+   - **Benefit:** 10x faster scene broadcasts
+
+3. **HashSet for faster unregistration** (1 day)
+   - O(1) unregistration instead of O(n)
+   - Negligible benefit for typical games
+
+4. **Editor lifecycle visualizer** (3-5 days)
+   - Timeline view of lifecycle events
+   - Better debugging experience
+
+**Priority:** All are LOW priority. System performs well for typical games (<1000 components). Profile first, optimize only if needed.
+
+**See:** [Assessment](00_assessment.md) for detailed analysis and recommendations.

+
+## 📊 System Overview
+
+### Core Concepts
+
+1. **Centralized Orchestration** - `LifecycleManager` broadcasts lifecycle events to all components
+2. **Automatic Registration** - Components auto-register in `Awake()` (sealed)
+3. **Two-Phase Init** - Early phase (`OnManagedAwake`) + Late phase (`OnManagedStart`)
+4. **Deterministic Order** - Registration order execution (predictable)
+5. **Foolproof Patterns** - Sealed `Awake`/`OnDestroy` prevent common errors
+
+### Key Benefits
+
+✅ **Guaranteed initialization order after bootstrap**  
+✅ **Safe singleton access in `OnManagedStart()`**  
+✅ **Built-in scene lifecycle hooks**  
+✅ **Integrated save/load coordination**  
+✅ **Automatic cleanup and unregistration**  
+✅ **Impossible to forget `base.Awake()`** (it's sealed)
+
+### When to Use
+
+**Use ManagedBehaviour for:**
+- ✅ Singleton managers (GameManager, AudioManager)
+- ✅ Components that access managers
+- ✅ Components that need save/load
+- ✅ Components that need scene lifecycle events
+
+**Stick with MonoBehaviour for:**
+- ❌ Simple self-contained components
+- ❌ Third-party plugins (can't change base class)
+- ❌ Components with no lifecycle dependencies
+
+---
+
+## 🏗️ System Architecture (High-Level)
+
+```
+Unity Engine
+    ↓ Awake() called on components
+ManagedBehaviour (Base Class)
+    ↓ Auto-registers
+LifecycleManager (Orchestrator)
+    ↓ Broadcasts lifecycle events
+Your Components
+    ↓ Receive callbacks in order
+```
+
+**Lifecycle Flow:**
+1. Bootstrap → `LifecycleManager` created
+2. Components `Awake()` → Auto-register → `OnManagedAwake()` called
+3. Bootstrap completes → `OnManagedStart()` broadcast
+4. Scene loads → `OnSceneReady()` broadcast
+5. Scene unloads → `OnSceneUnloading()` broadcast
+6. Component destroyed → `OnManagedDestroy()` called → Auto-unregister

+```csharp
+using Core.Lifecycle;
+
+public class MyComponent : ManagedBehaviour

+        AudioManager.Instance.PlaySound("Hello");
+    }
+}
+```
+
+### Singleton Manager
+```csharp
+public class MyManager : ManagedBehaviour

+    public static MyManager Instance => _instance;
+
+    internal override void OnManagedAwake()
+    {
+        _instance = this; // Set singleton early
+    }
+}
+```
+
+### With Save/Load
+```csharp
+public class SaveableComponent : ManagedBehaviour
+{
+    public override bool AutoRegisterForSave => true;
+    public override string SaveId => "MyComponent";
+
+    internal override string OnSceneSaveRequested()
+    {

+
+    internal override void OnSceneRestoreRequested(string data)
+    {
