+# EJSON v2 (MongoDB Extended JSON) Codec
+
+This directory contains the implementation of MongoDB Extended JSON v2 codec, providing high-performance encoding and decoding functionality for BSON types in JSON format.
+
+## Performance Optimizations
+
+**High-Performance Binary Encoding**: The implementation uses `Writer` and `Reader` directly to output raw bytes without intermediate JSON representations, following the same pattern as `JsonEncoder` and `JsonDecoder` for optimal performance.
+
+## Features
+
+**EjsonEncoder** - Supports both encoding modes:
+- **Canonical Mode**: Preserves all type information using explicit type wrappers like `{"$numberInt": "42"}`
+- **Relaxed Mode**: Uses native JSON types where possible for better readability (e.g., `42` instead of `{"$numberInt": "42"}`)
+
+**EjsonDecoder** - Strict parsing with comprehensive validation:
+- Validates exact key matches for type wrappers
+- Throws descriptive errors for malformed input
+- Supports both canonical and relaxed format parsing
+
+## API
+
+### Binary-First API (Recommended for Performance)
+```typescript
+import {EjsonEncoder, EjsonDecoder} from '@jsonjoy.com/json-pack/ejson2';
+import {Writer} from '@jsonjoy.com/util/lib/buffers/Writer';
+
+const writer = new Writer();
+const encoder = new EjsonEncoder(writer, { canonical: true });
+const decoder = new EjsonDecoder();
+
+// Encode to bytes
+const bytes = encoder.encode(data);
+
+// Decode from bytes
+const result = decoder.decode(bytes);
+```
+
+### String API (For Compatibility)
+```typescript
+import {createEjsonEncoder, createEjsonDecoder} from '@jsonjoy.com/json-pack/ejson2';
+
+const encoder = createEjsonEncoder({ canonical: true });
+const decoder = createEjsonDecoder();
+
+// Encode to string
+const jsonString = encoder.encodeToString(data);
+
+// Decode from string
+const result = decoder.decodeFromString(jsonString);
+```
+
+## Supported BSON Types
+
+The implementation supports all BSON types as per the MongoDB specification:
+
+- **ObjectId**: `{"$oid": "507f1f77bcf86cd799439011"}`
+- **Numbers**: Int32, Int64, Double with proper canonical/relaxed handling
+- **Decimal128**: `{"$numberDecimal": "123.456"}`
+- **Binary & UUID**: Full base64 encoding with subtype support
+- **Code & CodeWScope**: JavaScript code with optional scope
+- **Dates**: ISO-8601 format (relaxed) or timestamp (canonical)  
+- **RegExp**: Pattern and options preservation
+- **Special types**: MinKey, MaxKey, Undefined, DBPointer, Symbol, Timestamp
+
+## Examples
+
+```typescript
+import { createEjsonEncoder, createEjsonDecoder, BsonObjectId, BsonInt64 } from '@jsonjoy.com/json-pack/ejson2';
+
+const data = {
+  _id: new BsonObjectId(0x507f1f77, 0xbcf86cd799, 0x439011),
+  count: new BsonInt64(9223372036854775807),
+  created: new Date('2023-01-15T10:30:00.000Z')
+};
+
+// Canonical mode (preserves all type info)
+const canonical = createEjsonEncoder({ canonical: true });
+console.log(canonical.encodeToString(data));
+// {"_id":{"$oid":"507f1f77bcf86cd799439011"},"count":{"$numberLong":"9223372036854775807"},"created":{"$date":{"$numberLong":"1673778600000"}}}
+
+// Relaxed mode (more readable)
+const relaxed = createEjsonEncoder({ canonical: false });
+console.log(relaxed.encodeToString(data));
+// {"_id":{"$oid":"507f1f77bcf86cd799439011"},"count":9223372036854775807,"created":{"$date":"2023-01-15T10:30:00.000Z"}}
+
+// Decoding with validation
+const decoder = createEjsonDecoder();
+const decoded = decoder.decodeFromString(canonical.encodeToString(data));
+console.log(decoded._id instanceof BsonObjectId); // true
+```
+
+## Implementation Details
+
+- **High-Performance Binary Encoding**: Uses `Writer` and `Reader` directly to eliminate intermediate JSON string representations
+- **Shared Value Classes**: Reuses existing BSON value classes from `src/bson/values.ts`
+- **Strict Validation**: Prevents type wrappers with extra fields (e.g., `{"$oid": "...", "extra": "field"}` throws error)
+- **Round-trip Compatibility**: Ensures encoding → decoding preserves data integrity
+- **Error Handling**: Comprehensive error messages for debugging
+- **Specification Compliant**: Follows MongoDB Extended JSON v2 specification exactly
+
+## Testing
+
+Added 54 comprehensive tests covering:
+- All BSON type encoding/decoding in both modes
+- Round-trip compatibility testing
+- Error handling and edge cases
+- Special numeric values (Infinity, NaN)
+- Date handling for different year ranges
+- Malformed input validation
+
+All existing tests continue to pass, ensuring no breaking changes.
