+Process DSL — context expressions
+
+This document describes the small DSL used to reference parts of a process execution context and to apply "modifiers" (functions, source reducers, fallbacks) to those references. The implementation lives in `src/dslContext.ts` and the tests are at `src/__tests__/dslContext.test.ts`.
+
+Overview
+--------
+
+A DSL expression is always enclosed in `${...}` when embedded. The parser and serializer in this package support converting between the typed `SelectedContext` objects and their compact DSL string.
+
+Top-level expression types
+-------------------------
+
+- Attribute: `@<key>` — references an attribute on the current object.
+  - Example: `@name`
+
+- Nested attribute: `@<refKey>.<attrKey>` — follows a reference attribute to another object and takes its attribute.
+  - Example: `@owner.id`
+
+- Relation: `$relation(<associationRef>,<direction>,<key>,<name>)`
+  - Example: `$relation(my.assoc, A, id, title)`
+
+- Execution context: `$context(<id>,<key>)`
+  - Example: `$context(12345, result)`
+
+- User request: `$userRequest(<id>,<key>,<_class>)`
+  - Example: `$userRequest(123, value, MyClass)`
+
+- Const: `#<value>,<key>` — a literal value and a target key.
+  - Numbers, booleans, `null`/`undefined`, quoted strings and arrays are supported.
+  - Example: `#42,answer` or `#"hello",greeting` or `#[1,2,3],arr`
+
+- Function as primary expression: `=><funcRef>(<props...>)`
+  - Example: `=>myFunc(a=1,b="x")`
+
+Modifiers
+---------
+
+Modifiers always start with `=>` and are appended after the main expression separated by spaces (at top-level). Examples:
+
+- Source reducer: `=>SOURCE(<funcRef>,<props...>)`
+- Fallback: `=>FALLBACK(<props...>)` or `=>FALLBACK(<value>)`
+- Arbitrary function modifiers: `=><funcRef>(<props...>)`
+
+Important parsing details
+-------------------------
+
+- Splitting into expression + modifiers is done at top-level only — the parser ignores `=>` inside nested brackets, quotes and template expressions `${...}`.
+- The tokenizer respects nested parentheses `()`, arrays `[]`, object braces `{}`, quoted strings (single/double) with escapes, and `${...}` template blocks.
+- `simplifyFuncRef` is used when serializing to shorten function references; `expandFuncRef` restores those during parsing.
+
+Examples
+--------
+
+- `${@name}` — attribute `name`
+- `${@owner.id =>MYFUNC(a=1) =>FALLBACK(10)}` — nested attribute with a function modifier and a fallback
+- `${#"he\"llo",greet}` — const string with escaped quote
+- `${=>COMPUTE(sum=1)}` — function as primary expression
