+# Agent Guidelines for fp-go/v2
+
+This document provides guidelines for AI agents working on the fp-go/v2 project.
+
+## Documentation Standards
+
+### Go Doc Comments
+
+1. **Use Standard Go Doc Format**
+   - Do NOT use markdown-style links like `[text](url)`
+   - Use simple type references: `ReaderResult`, `Validate[I, A]`, `validation.Success`
+   - Go's documentation system will automatically create links
+
+2. **Structure**
+   ```go
+   // FunctionName does something useful.
+   //
+   // Longer description explaining the purpose and behavior.
+   //
+   // # Type Parameters
+   //
+   //   - T: Description of type parameter
+   //
+   // # Parameters
+   //
+   //   - param: Description of parameter
+   //
+   // # Returns
+   //
+   //   - ReturnType: Description of return value
+   //
+   // # Example Usage
+   //
+   //   code example here
+   //
+   // # See Also
+   //
+   //   - RelatedFunction: Brief description
+   func FunctionName[T any](param T) ReturnType {
+   ```
+
+3. **Code Examples**
+   - Use idiomatic Go patterns
+   - Prefer `result.Eitherize1(strconv.Atoi)` over manual error handling
+   - Show realistic, runnable examples
+
+### File Headers
+

+```
+
+## Testing Standards
+
+### Test Structure
+
+1. **Organize Tests by Category**
+   ```go
+   func TestFunctionName_Success(t *testing.T) {
+       t.Run("specific success case", func(t *testing.T) {
+           // test code
+       })
+   }
+   
+   func TestFunctionName_Failure(t *testing.T) {
+       t.Run("specific failure case", func(t *testing.T) {
+           // test code
+       })
+   }
+   
+   func TestFunctionName_EdgeCases(t *testing.T) {
+       // edge case tests
+   }
+   
+   func TestFunctionName_Integration(t *testing.T) {
+       // integration tests
+   }
+   ```
+
+2. **Use Direct Assertions**
+   - Prefer: `assert.Equal(t, validation.Success(expected), actual)`
+   - Avoid: Verbose `either.MonadFold` patterns unless necessary
+   - Exception: When you need to verify pointer is not nil or extract specific fields
+
+3. **Use Idiomatic Patterns**
+   - Use `result.Eitherize1` for converting `(T, error)` functions
+   - Use `result.Of` for success values
+   - Use `result.Left` for error values
+
+### Test Coverage
+
+Include tests for:
+- **Success cases**: Normal operation with various input types
+- **Failure cases**: Error handling and error preservation
+- **Edge cases**: Nil, empty, zero values, boundary conditions
+- **Integration**: Composition with other functions
+- **Type safety**: Verify type parameters work correctly
+- **Benchmarks**: Performance-critical paths
+
+### Example Test Pattern
+
+```go
+func TestFromReaderResult_Success(t *testing.T) {
+    t.Run("converts successful ReaderResult", func(t *testing.T) {
+        // Arrange
+        parseIntRR := result.Eitherize1(strconv.Atoi)
+        validator := FromReaderResult[string, int](parseIntRR)
+        
+        // Act
+        result := validator("42")(nil)
+        
+        // Assert
+        assert.Equal(t, validation.Success(42), result)
+    })
+}
+```
+
+## Code Style
+
+### Functional Patterns
+
+1. **Prefer Composition**
+   ```go
+   validator := F.Pipe1(
+       FromReaderResult[string, int](parseIntRR),
+       Chain(validatePositive),
+   )
+   ```
+
+2. **Use Type-Safe Helpers**
+   - `result.Eitherize1` for `func(T) (R, error)`
+   - `result.Of` for wrapping success values
+   - `result.Left` for wrapping errors
+
+3. **Avoid Verbose Patterns**
+   - Don't manually handle `(value, error)` tuples when helpers exist
+   - Don't use `either.MonadFold` in tests unless necessary
+
+4. **Use Void Type for Unit Values**
+   - Use `function.Void` (or `F.Void`) instead of `struct{}`
+   - Use `function.VOID` (or `F.VOID`) instead of `struct{}{}`
+   - Example: `Empty[F.Void, F.Void, any](lazy.Of(pair.MakePair(F.VOID, F.VOID)))`
+
+### Error Handling
+
+1. **In Production Code**
+   - Use `validation.Success` for successful validations
+   - Use `validation.FailureWithMessage` for simple failures
+   - Use `validation.FailureWithError` to preserve error causes
+
+2. **In Tests**
+   - Verify error messages and causes
+   - Check error context is preserved
+   - Test error accumulation when applicable
+
+## Common Patterns
+
+### Converting Error-Based Functions
+
+```go
+// Good: Use Eitherize1
+parseIntRR := result.Eitherize1(strconv.Atoi)
+
+// Avoid: Manual error handling
+parseIntRR := func(input string) result.Result[int] {
+    val, err := strconv.Atoi(input)
+    if err != nil {
+        return result.Left[int](err)
+    }
+    return result.Of(val)
+}
+```
+
+### Testing Validation Results
+
+```go
+// Good: Direct comparison
+assert.Equal(t, validation.Success(42), result)
+
+// Avoid: Verbose extraction (unless you need to verify specific fields)
+assert.True(t, either.IsRight(result))
+value := either.MonadFold(result,
+    func(Errors) int { return 0 },
+    F.Identity[int],
+)
+assert.Equal(t, 42, value)
+```
+
+### Documentation Examples
+
+```go
+// Good: Concise and idiomatic
+//  parseIntRR := result.Eitherize1(strconv.Atoi)
+//  validator := FromReaderResult[string, int](parseIntRR)
+
+// Avoid: Verbose manual patterns
+//  parseIntRR := func(input string) result.Result[int] {
+//      val, err := strconv.Atoi(input)
+//      if err != nil {
+//          return result.Left[int](err)
+//      }
+//      return result.Of(val)
+//  }
+```

+## The Effect Package: Higher-Level Abstraction
+
+### What is Effect?
+
+The `effect` package provides a higher-level abstraction over `ReaderReaderIOResult`, offering a complete effect system for managing dependencies, errors, and side effects in a composable way. It's inspired by [effect-ts](https://effect.website/) and provides a cleaner API for complex workflows.
+
+### Core Type
+
+```go
+// Effect represents an effectful computation that:
+//   - Requires a context of type C (dependency injection)
+//   - Can perform I/O operations
+//   - Can fail with an error
+//   - Produces a value of type A on success
+type Effect[C, A any] = readerreaderioresult.ReaderReaderIOResult[C, A]
+```
+
+**Key difference from ReaderIOResult**: Effect adds an additional layer of dependency injection (the `C` type parameter) on top of the runtime `context.Context`, enabling type-safe dependency management.
+
+### When to Use Effect
+
+Use the Effect package when you need:
+
+1. **Type-Safe Dependency Injection**: Your application has typed dependencies (config, services, repositories) that need to be threaded through operations
+2. **Complex Workflows**: Multiple services and dependencies need to be composed
+3. **Testability**: You want to easily mock dependencies by providing different contexts
+4. **Separation of Concerns**: Clear separation between business logic, dependencies, and I/O
+
+### Effect vs ReaderIOResult
+
+```go
+// ReaderIOResult - depends only on runtime context
+type ReaderIOResult[A any] = func(context.Context) (A, error)
+
+// Effect - depends on typed context C AND runtime context
+type Effect[C, A any] = func(C) func(context.Context) (A, error)
+```
+
+**ReaderIOResult** is simpler and suitable when you only need runtime context (cancellation, deadlines, request-scoped values).
+
+**Effect** adds typed dependency injection, making it ideal for applications with complex service dependencies.
+
+### Basic Usage
+
+#### Creating Effects
+
+```go
+type AppConfig struct {
+    DatabaseURL string
+    APIKey      string
+}
+
+// Create a successful effect
+successEffect := effect.Succeed[AppConfig, string]("hello")
+
+// Create a failed effect
+failEffect := effect.Fail[AppConfig, string](errors.New("failed"))
+
+// Lift a pure value
+pureEffect := effect.Of[AppConfig, int](42)
+```
+
+#### Integrating Standard Go Functions
+
+The `Eitherize` function makes it easy to integrate standard Go functions that return `(value, error)`:
+
+```go
+type Database struct {
+    conn *sql.DB
+}
+
+// Convert a standard Go function to an Effect using Eitherize
+func fetchUser(id int) effect.Effect[Database, User] {
+    return effect.Eitherize(func(db Database, ctx context.Context) (User, error) {
+        var user User
+        err := db.conn.QueryRowContext(ctx, "SELECT * FROM users WHERE id = ?", id).Scan(&user)
+        return user, err
+    })
+}
+
+// Use Eitherize1 for Kleisli arrows (functions with an additional parameter)
+fetchUserKleisli := effect.Eitherize1(func(db Database, ctx context.Context, id int) (User, error) {
+    var user User
+    err := db.conn.QueryRowContext(ctx, "SELECT * FROM users WHERE id = ?", id).Scan(&user)
+    return user, err
+})
+// fetchUserKleisli has type: func(int) Effect[Database, User]
+```
+
+#### Composing Effects
+
+```go
+type Services struct {
+    UserRepo UserRepository
+    EmailSvc EmailService
+}
+
+// Compose multiple effects with typed dependencies
+func processUser(id int, newEmail string) effect.Effect[Services, User] {
+    return F.Pipe3(
+        // Fetch user from repository
+        effect.Eitherize(func(svc Services, ctx context.Context) (User, error) {
+            return svc.UserRepo.GetUser(ctx, id)
+        }),
+        // Validate user (pure function lifted into Effect)
+        effect.ChainEitherK[Services](validateUser),
+        // Update email
+        effect.Chain[Services](func(user User) effect.Effect[Services, User] {
+            return effect.Eitherize(func(svc Services, ctx context.Context) (User, error) {
+                if err := svc.EmailSvc.SendVerification(ctx, newEmail); err != nil {
+                    return User{}, err
+                }
+                return svc.UserRepo.UpdateEmail(ctx, user.ID, newEmail)
+            })
+        }),
+    )
+}
+```
+
+#### Running Effects
+
+```go
+func main() {
+    // Set up typed dependencies once
+    services := Services{
+        UserRepo: &PostgresUserRepo{db: db},
+        EmailSvc: &SMTPEmailService{host: "smtp.example.com"},
+    }
+
+    // Build the effect pipeline (no execution yet)
+    userEffect := processUser(42, "new@email.com")
+
+    // Provide dependencies - returns a Thunk (ReaderIOResult)
+    thunk := effect.Provide(services)(userEffect)
+
+    // Run synchronously - returns a func(context.Context) (User, error)
+    readerResult := effect.RunSync(thunk)
+
+    // Execute with runtime context
+    user, err := readerResult(context.Background())
+    if err != nil {
+        log.Fatal(err)
+    }
+
+    fmt.Printf("Updated user: %+v\n", user)
+}
+```
+
+### Comparison: Traditional vs ReaderIOResult vs Effect
+
+| Aspect | Traditional | ReaderIOResult | Effect |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| Error propagation | Manual | Automatic | Automatic |
+| Dependency injection | Function parameters | Closure / `context.Context` | Typed `C` parameter |
+| Testability | Requires mocking | Mock `ReaderIOResult` | Provide mock `C` |
+| Composability | Low | High | High |
+| Type-safe dependencies | No | No | Yes |
+| Complexity | Low | Medium | Medium-High |
+
+### Testing with Effect
+
+One of the key benefits of Effect is easy testing through dependency substitution:
+
+```go
+func TestProcessUser(t *testing.T) {
+    // Create mock services
+    mockServices := Services{
+        UserRepo: &MockUserRepo{
+            users: map[int]User{42: {ID: 42, Age: 25, Email: "old@email.com"}},
+        },
+        EmailSvc: &MockEmailService{},
+    }
+
+    // Run the effect with mock dependencies
+    user, err := effect.RunSync(
+        effect.Provide(mockServices)(processUser(42, "new@email.com")),
+    )(context.Background())
+
+    assert.NoError(t, err)
+    assert.Equal(t, "new@email.com", user.Email)
+}
+```
+
+No database or SMTP server needed — just provide mock implementations of the `Services` struct.

+// Logf creates a logging function that outputs formatted test messages using Go's testing.T.Logf.
+//
+// This function provides a functional programming approach to test logging, returning a
+// [ReaderIO] that can be composed with other test operations. It's particularly useful
+// for debugging tests, tracing execution flow, or documenting test behavior without
+// affecting test outcomes.
+//
+// The function uses a curried design pattern:
+//  1. First, you provide a format string (prefix) with format verbs (like %v, %d, %s)
+//  2. This returns a function that takes a value of type T
+//  3. That function returns a ReaderIO that performs the logging when executed
+//
+// # Parameters
+//
+//   - prefix: A format string compatible with fmt.Printf (e.g., "Value: %v", "Count: %d")
+//     The format string should contain exactly one format verb that matches type T
+//
+// # Returns
+//
+//   - A function that takes a value of type T and returns a [ReaderIO][*testing.T, Void]
+//     When executed, this ReaderIO logs the formatted message to the test output
+//
+// # Type Parameters
+//
+//   - T: The type of value to be logged. Can be any type that can be formatted by fmt
+//
+// # Use Cases
+//
+//   - Debugging test execution by logging intermediate values
+//   - Tracing the flow of complex test scenarios
+//   - Documenting test behavior in the test output
+//   - Logging values in functional pipelines without breaking the chain
+//   - Creating reusable logging operations for specific types

+// # Example - Basic Logging

+//	    logInt := assert.Logf[int]("Processing value: %d")

+//	    // Use it to log a value
+//	    value := 42
+//	    logInt(value)(t)()  // Outputs: "Processing value: 42"

+// # Example - Logging in Test Pipeline

+//	        Name string
+//	        Age  int

+// This monoid combines multiple test assertions using logical AND (conjunction) semantics,

+// applicative structure of Reader to execute multiple assertions with the same testing.T
+// context and combines their boolean results using boolean.MonoidAll (logical AND).

+// The monoid provides:
+//   - Concat: Combines two assertions such that both must pass (logical AND)

+//
+// This is particularly useful for:

+//   - Building complex test conditions from simpler ones
+//   - Creating reusable assertion combinators
+//   - Implementing test assertion DSLs

+// pattern of "traverse" - transforming a collection while preserving structure and
+// accumulating effects (in this case, test execution).
+//
+// The function takes each element of the array, applies the provided function to generate

+	// and produces a boolean result indicating whether the assertion passed.
+	//
+	// The Reader pattern enables:
+	//   - Composable assertions that can be combined using functional operators
+	//   - Deferred execution - assertions are defined but not executed until applied to a test
+	//   - Reusable assertion logic that can be applied to multiple tests
+	//   - Functional composition of complex test conditions
+	//
+	// All assertion functions in this package return a Reader, which must be applied
+	// to a *testing.T to execute the assertion:
+	//
+	//	assertion := assert.Equal(42)(result)  // Creates a Reader
+	//	assertion(t)                            // Executes the assertion
+	//
+	// Readers can be composed using functions like [AllOf], [ApplicativeMonoid], or
+	// functional operators from the reader package.
+	//
+	// Example:
+	//
+	//	func TestReaderComposition(t *testing.T) {
+	//	    // Create individual assertions
+	//	    assertion1 := assert.Equal(42)(42)
+	//	    assertion2 := assert.StringNotEmpty("hello")
+	//
+	//	    // Combine them
+	//	    combined := assert.AllOf([]assert.Reader{assertion1, assertion2})
+	//
+	//	    // Execute the combined assertion
+	//	    combined(t)
+	//	}
+	//
+	// See also:
+	//   - [Kleisli]: Function that produces a Reader from a value
+	//   - [AllOf]: Combines multiple Readers
+	//   - [ApplicativeMonoid]: Monoid for combining Readers
 	Reader = reader.Reader[*testing.T, bool]
 
-	// Kleisli represents a function that produces a test assertion Reader from a value of type T.
+	// Kleisli represents a function that produces a test assertion [Reader] from a value of type T.
+	//
+	// This is an alias for [reader.Reader][T, Reader], which is a function that takes a value
+	// of type T and returns a Reader (test assertion). This pattern is fundamental to the
+	// "data last" principle used throughout this package.
+	//
+	// Kleisli functions enable:
+	//   - Partial application of assertions - configure the expected value first, apply actual value later
+	//   - Reusable assertion builders that can be applied to different values
+	//   - Functional composition of assertion pipelines
+	//   - Point-free style programming with assertions
+	//
+	// Most assertion functions in this package return a Kleisli, which must be applied
+	// to the actual value being tested, and then to a *testing.T:
+	//
+	//	kleisli := assert.Equal(42)  // Kleisli[int] - expects an int
+	//	reader := kleisli(result)     // Reader - assertion ready to execute
+	//	reader(t)                     // Execute the assertion
+	//
+	// Or more concisely:
+	//
+	//	assert.Equal(42)(result)(t)
+	//
+	// Example:
+	//
+	//	func TestKleisliPattern(t *testing.T) {
+	//	    // Create a reusable assertion for positive numbers
+	//	    isPositive := assert.That(func(n int) bool { return n > 0 })
+	//
+	//	    // Apply it to different values
+	//	    isPositive(42)(t)   // Passes
+	//	    isPositive(100)(t)  // Passes
+	//	    // isPositive(-5)(t) would fail
+	//
+	//	    // Can be used with Local for property testing
+	//	    type User struct { Age int }
+	//	    checkAge := assert.Local(func(u User) int { return u.Age })(isPositive)

 	// Predicate represents a function that tests a value of type T and returns a boolean.

+	// used with the [That] function to create custom assertions.
+	//
+	// Predicates enable:
+	//   - Custom validation logic for any type
+	//   - Reusable test conditions

 	// Lens is a functional reference to a subpart of a data structure.
+	//
+	// This is an alias for [lens.Lens][S, T], which provides a composable way to focus

+	//
+	// In the context of testing, lenses are used with [LocalL] to focus assertions
+	// on specific properties of complex objects without manually extracting those properties.
+	//
+	// A Lens[S, T] focuses on a value of type T within a structure of type S.

 	// Optional is an optic that focuses on a value that may or may not be present.
+	//
+	// This is an alias for [optional.Optional][S, T], which is similar to a [Lens] but
+	// handles cases where the focused value might not exist. Optionals are useful for
+	// working with nullable fields, optional properties, or values that might be absent.
+	//
+	// In testing, Optionals are used with [FromOptional] to create assertions that
+	// verify whether an optional value is present and, if so, whether it satisfies
+	// certain conditions.
+	//
+	// An Optional[S, T] focuses on an optional value of type T within a structure of type S.
+	//
+	// Example:
+	//
+	//	func TestOptionalUsage(t *testing.T) {
+	//	    type Config struct { Timeout *int }
+	//
+	//	    // Define optional (typically generated)
+	//	    timeoutOptional := optional.Optional[Config, int]{...}
+	//
+	//	    // Test when value is present
+	//	    config1 := Config{Timeout: ptr(30)}
+	//	    assert.FromOptional(timeoutOptional)(
+	//	        assert.Equal(30),
+	//	    )(config1)(t)  // Passes
+	//
+	//	    // Test when value is absent
+	//	    config2 := Config{Timeout: nil}
+	//	    // FromOptional would fail because value is not present
+	//	}
+	//
+	// See also:
+	//   - [FromOptional]: Creates assertions for optional values

 	// Prism is an optic that focuses on a case of a sum type.
+	//
+	// This is an alias for [prism.Prism][S, T], which provides a way to focus on one
+	// variant of a sum type (like Result, Option, Either, etc.). Prisms enable pattern
+	// matching and extraction of values from sum types in a functional way.
+	//
+	// In testing, Prisms are used with [FromPrism] to create assertions that verify
+	// whether a value matches a specific case and, if so, whether the contained value
+	// satisfies certain conditions.
+	//
+	// A Prism[S, T] focuses on a value of type T that may be contained within a sum type S.
+	//
+	// Example:

+# CLI Package - Functional Wrappers for urfave/cli/v3
+
+This package provides functional programming wrappers for the `github.com/urfave/cli/v3` library, enabling Effect-based command actions and type-safe flag handling through Prisms.
+
+## Features
+
+### 1. Effect-Based Command Actions
+
+Transform CLI command actions into composable Effects that follow functional programming principles.
+
+#### Key Functions
+
+- **`ToAction(effect CommandEffect) func(context.Context, *C.Command) error`**
+  - Converts a CommandEffect into a standard urfave/cli Action function
+  - Enables Effect-based command handlers to work with cli/v3 framework
+
+- **`FromAction(action func(context.Context, *C.Command) error) CommandEffect`**
+  - Lifts existing cli/v3 action handlers into the Effect type
+  - Allows gradual migration to functional style
+
+- **`MakeCommand(name, usage string, flags []C.Flag, effect CommandEffect) *C.Command`**
+  - Creates a new Command with an Effect-based action
+  - Convenience function combining command creation with Effect conversion
+
+- **`MakeCommandWithSubcommands(...) *C.Command`**
+  - Creates a Command with subcommands and an Effect-based action
+
+#### Example Usage
+
+```go
+import (
+    "context"
+    
+    E "github.com/IBM/fp-go/v2/effect"
+    F "github.com/IBM/fp-go/v2/function"
+    R "github.com/IBM/fp-go/v2/result"
+    "github.com/IBM/fp-go/v2/cli"
+    C "github.com/urfave/cli/v3"
+)
+
+// Define an Effect-based command action
+processEffect := func(cmd *C.Command) E.Thunk[F.Void] {
+    return func(ctx context.Context) E.IOResult[F.Void] {
+        return func() R.Result[F.Void] {
+            input := cmd.String("input")
+            // Process input...
+            return R.Of(F.Void{})
+        }
+    }
+}
+
+// Create command with Effect
+command := cli.MakeCommand(
+    "process",
+    "Process input files",
+    []C.Flag{
+        &C.StringFlag{Name: "input", Usage: "Input file path"},
+    },
+    processEffect,
+)
+
+// Or convert existing action to Effect
+existingAction := func(ctx context.Context, cmd *C.Command) error {
+    // Existing logic...
+    return nil
+}
+effect := cli.FromAction(existingAction)
+```
+

+#### Example Usage
+
+```go
+import (
+    O "github.com/IBM/fp-go/v2/option"
+    "github.com/IBM/fp-go/v2/cli"
+    C "github.com/urfave/cli/v3"
+)
+
+// Extract a StringFlag from a Flag interface
+var flag C.Flag = &C.StringFlag{Name: "input", Value: "default"}
+prism := cli.StringFlagPrism()
+
+// Safe extraction returns Option
+result := prism.GetOption(flag)
+if O.IsSome(result) {
+    strFlag := O.MonadFold(result, 
+        func() *C.StringFlag { return nil },
+        func(f *C.StringFlag) *C.StringFlag { return f },
+    )
+    // Use strFlag...
+}
+
+// Type mismatch returns None
+var intFlag C.Flag = &C.IntFlag{Name: "count"}
+result = prism.GetOption(intFlag)  // Returns None
+
+// Convert back to Flag
+strFlag := &C.StringFlag{Name: "output"}
+flag = prism.ReverseGet(strFlag)
+```
+
+## Type Definitions
+
+### CommandEffect
+
+```go
+type CommandEffect = E.Effect[*C.Command, F.Void]
+```
+
+A CommandEffect represents a CLI command action as an Effect. It takes a `*C.Command` as context and produces a result wrapped in the Effect monad.
+
+The Effect structure is:
+```
+func(*C.Command) -> func(context.Context) -> func() -> Result[Void]
+```
+
+This allows for:
+- **Composability**: Effects can be composed using standard functional combinators
+- **Testability**: Pure functions are easier to test
+- **Error Handling**: Errors are explicitly represented in the Result type
+- **Context Management**: Context flows naturally through the Effect
+
+## Benefits
+
+### 1. Functional Composition
+
+Effects can be composed using standard functional programming patterns:
+
+```go
+import (
+    F "github.com/IBM/fp-go/v2/function"
+    RRIOE "github.com/IBM/fp-go/v2/context/readerreaderioresult"
+)
+
+// Compose multiple effects
+validateInput := func(cmd *C.Command) E.Thunk[F.Void] { /* ... */ }
+processData := func(cmd *C.Command) E.Thunk[F.Void] { /* ... */ }
+saveResults := func(cmd *C.Command) E.Thunk[F.Void] { /* ... */ }
+
+// Chain effects together
+pipeline := F.Pipe3(
+    validateInput,
+    RRIOE.Chain(func(F.Void) E.Effect[*C.Command, F.Void] { return processData }),
+    RRIOE.Chain(func(F.Void) E.Effect[*C.Command, F.Void] { return saveResults }),
+)
+```
+
+### 2. Type Safety
+
+Prisms provide compile-time type safety when working with flags:
+
+```go
+// Type-safe flag extraction
+flags := []C.Flag{
+    &C.StringFlag{Name: "input"},
+    &C.IntFlag{Name: "count"},
+}
+
+for _, flag := range flags {
+    // Safe extraction with pattern matching
+    O.MonadFold(
+        cli.StringFlagPrism().GetOption(flag),
+        func() { /* Not a string flag */ },
+        func(sf *C.StringFlag) { /* Handle string flag */ },
+    )
+}
+```
+
+### 3. Error Handling
+
+Errors are explicitly represented in the Result type:
+
+```go
+effect := func(cmd *C.Command) E.Thunk[F.Void] {
+    return func(ctx context.Context) E.IOResult[F.Void] {
+        return func() R.Result[F.Void] {
+            if err := validateInput(cmd); err != nil {
+                return R.Left[F.Void](err)  // Explicit error
+            }
+            return R.Of(F.Void{})  // Success
+        }
+    }
+}
+```
+
+### 4. Testability
+
+Pure functions are easier to test:
+
+```go
+func TestCommandEffect(t *testing.T) {
+    cmd := &C.Command{Name: "test"}
+    effect := myCommandEffect(cmd)
+    
+    // Execute effect
+    result := effect(context.Background())()
+    
+    // Assert on result
+    assert.True(t, R.IsRight(result))
+}
+```
+
+## Migration Guide
+
+### From Standard Actions to Effects
+
+**Before:**
+```go
+command := &C.Command{
+    Name: "process",
+    Action: func(ctx context.Context, cmd *C.Command) error {
+        input := cmd.String("input")
+        // Process...
+        return nil
+    },
+}
+```
+
+**After:**
+```go
+effect := func(cmd *C.Command) E.Thunk[F.Void] {
+    return func(ctx context.Context) E.IOResult[F.Void] {
+        return func() R.Result[F.Void] {
+            input := cmd.String("input")
+            // Process...
+            return R.Of(F.Void{})
+        }
+    }
+}
+
+command := cli.MakeCommand("process", "Process files", flags, effect)
+```
+
+### Gradual Migration
+
+You can mix both styles during migration:
+
+```go
+// Wrap existing action
+existingAction := func(ctx context.Context, cmd *C.Command) error {
+    // Legacy code...
+    return nil
+}
+
+// Use as Effect
+effect := cli.FromAction(existingAction)
+command := cli.MakeCommand("legacy", "Legacy command", flags, effect)
+```

+//
+// The Const functor is a fundamental building block in functional programming that wraps a value
+// of type E while having a phantom type parameter A. This makes it useful for:
+//   - Accumulating values during traversals (e.g., collecting metadata)
+//   - Implementing optics (lenses, prisms) where you need to track information
+//   - Building applicative functors that combine values using a semigroup
+//
+// # The Const Functor
+//
+// Const[E, A] wraps a value of type E and has a phantom type parameter A that doesn't affect
+// the runtime value. This allows it to participate in functor and applicative operations while
+// maintaining the wrapped value unchanged.
+//
+// # Key Properties
+//
+//   - Map operations ignore the function and preserve the wrapped value
+//   - Ap operations combine wrapped values using a semigroup
+//   - The phantom type A allows type-safe composition with other functors
+//
+// # Example Usage
+//
+//	// Accumulate string values
+//	c1 := Make[string, int]("hello")
+//	c2 := Make[string, int]("world")
+//
+//	// Map doesn't change the wrapped value

+// Parameters:
+//   - a: The constant value to return in all operations

+// Returns:

-// LogEntryExitF creates a customizable operator that wraps a ReaderIOResult computation with entry/exit callbacks.
-//
-// This is a more flexible version of LogEntryExit that allows you to provide custom callbacks for
-// entry and exit events. The onEntry callback receives the current context and can return a modified
-// context (e.g., with additional logging information). The onExit callback receives the computation
-// result and can perform custom logging, metrics collection, or cleanup.
-//
-// The function uses the bracket pattern to ensure that:
-//   - The onEntry callback is executed before the computation starts
-//   - The computation runs with the context returned by onEntry
-//   - The onExit callback is executed after the computation completes (success or failure)
-//   - The original result is preserved and returned unchanged
-//   - Cleanup happens even if the computation fails
-//
-// Type Parameters:
-//   - A: The success type of the ReaderIOResult
-//   - ANY: The return type of the onExit callback (typically any)
-//
-// Parameters:
-//   - onEntry: A ReaderIO that receives the current context and returns a (possibly modified) context.
-//     This is executed before the computation starts. Use this for logging entry, adding context values,
-//     starting timers, or initialization logic.
-//   - onExit: A Kleisli function that receives the Result[A] and returns a ReaderIO[ANY].
-//     This is executed after the computation completes, regardless of success or failure.
-//     Use this for logging exit, recording metrics, cleanup, or finalization logic.

+// argument, though since all Void values are identical, the choice of semigroup
+// doesn't affect the result.
+//
+// This monoid is useful in contexts where:
+//   - A monoid instance is required but no meaningful data needs to be combined
+//   - You need to track that an operation occurred without caring about its result
+//   - Building generic abstractions that work with any monoid, including the trivial case
+//
+// # Monoid Laws
+//
+// The VoidMonoid satisfies all monoid laws trivially:

+//   - Left Identity: Concat(Empty(), x) = x - always VOID
+//   - Right Identity: Concat(x, Empty()) = x - always VOID
+//
+// Returns:
+//   - A Monoid[Void] instance
+//
+// Example:
+//
+//	m := VoidMonoid()
+//	result := m.Concat(function.VOID, function.VOID)  // function.VOID
+//	empty := m.Empty()                                 // function.VOID

+//	    func() Void { fmt.Println("Action 1"); return function.VOID },
+//	    func() Void { fmt.Println("Action 2"); return function.VOID },
+//	}
+//	// Execute all actions and combine results
+//	results := A.Map(func(a Action) Void { return a() })(actions)

+// # Type Parameters
+//
+//   - I: The input type for decoding (what the codec reads from)

+//   - e: A Lazy[Pair[O, A]] providing the initial default values:

+//   - pair.Tail(e()): The initial zero value of the struct A (e.g. MyStruct{})

+//   - A Type[A, O, I] that always decodes to the default A and encodes to the

+// ApSL creates an applicative sequencing operator for codecs using a lens.
+//
+// This function implements the "ApS" (Applicative Sequencing) pattern for codecs,
+// allowing you to build up complex codecs by combining a base codec with a field
+// accessed through a lens. It's particularly useful for building struct codecs
+// field-by-field in a composable way.
+//
+// The function combines:
+//   - Encoding: Extracts the field value using the lens, encodes it with fa, and
+//     combines it with the base encoding using the monoid
+//   - Validation: Validates the field using the lens and combines the validation
+//     with the base validation
+//
+// # Type Parameters
+//
+//   - S: The source struct type (what we're building a codec for)
+//   - T: The field type accessed by the lens
+//   - O: The output type for encoding (must have a monoid)
+//   - I: The input type for decoding
+//
+// # Parameters
+//
+//   - m: A Monoid[O] for combining encoded outputs
+//   - l: A Lens[S, T] that focuses on a specific field in S
+//   - fa: A Type[T, O, I] codec for the field type T
+//
+// # Returns
+//
+// An Operator[S, S, O, I] that transforms a base codec by adding the field
+// specified by the lens.
+//
+// # How It Works
+//
+// 1. **Encoding**: When encoding a value of type S:
+//   - Extract the field T using l.Get
+//   - Encode T to O using fa.Encode
+//   - Combine with the base encoding using the monoid
+//
+// 2. **Validation**: When validating input I:
+//   - Validate the field using fa.Validate through the lens
+//   - Combine with the base validation
+//
+// 3. **Type Checking**: Preserves the base type checker

+// ApSO creates an applicative sequencing operator for codecs using an optional.
+//
+// This function implements the "ApS" (Applicative Sequencing) pattern for codecs
+// with optional fields, allowing you to build up complex codecs by combining a base
+// codec with a field that may or may not be present. It's particularly useful for
+// building struct codecs with optional fields in a composable way.
+//
+// The function combines:
+//   - Encoding: Attempts to extract the optional field value, encodes it if present,
+//     and combines it with the base encoding using the monoid. If the field is absent,
+//     only the base encoding is used.
+//   - Validation: Validates the optional field and combines the validation with the
+//     base validation using applicative semantics (error accumulation).
+//
+// # Type Parameters
+//
+//   - S: The source struct type (what we're building a codec for)
+//   - T: The optional field type accessed by the optional
+//   - O: The output type for encoding (must have a monoid)
+//   - I: The input type for decoding
+//
+// # Parameters
+//
+//   - m: A Monoid[O] for combining encoded outputs

+//   - fa: A Type[T, O, I] codec for the optional field type T
+//
+// # Returns
+//
+// An Operator[S, S, O, I] that transforms a base codec by adding the optional field
+// specified by the optional.
+//
+// # How It Works
+//
+// 1. **Encoding**: When encoding a value of type S:
+//   - Try to extract the optional field T using o.GetOption
+//   - If present (Some(T)): Encode T to O using fa.Encode and combine with base using monoid
+//   - If absent (None): Return only the base encoding unchanged
+//
+// 2. **Validation**: When validating input I:
+//   - Validate the optional field using fa.Validate through o.Set
+//   - Combine with the base validation using applicative semantics
+//   - Accumulates all validation errors from both base and field
+//
+// 3. **Type Checking**: Preserves the base type checker
+//
+// # Difference from ApSL
+//
+// Unlike ApSL which works with required fields via Lens, ApSO handles optional fields:
+//   - ApSL: Field always exists, always encoded
+//   - ApSO: Field may not exist, only encoded when present
+//   - ApSO uses Optional.GetOption which returns Option[T]
+//   - ApSO gracefully handles missing fields without errors

+// Bind creates a monadic sequencing operator for codecs using a lens and a Kleisli arrow.
+//
+// This function implements the "Bind" (monadic bind / chain) pattern for codecs,

+// the current decoded value of the struct. Unlike ApSL which uses a fixed field
+// codec, Bind accepts a Kleisli arrow — a function from the current struct value S
+// to a Type[T, O, I] — enabling context-sensitive codec construction.
+//
+// The function combines:
+//   - Encoding: Evaluates the Kleisli arrow f on the current struct value s to obtain
+//     the field codec, extracts the field T using the lens, encodes it with that codec,
+//     and combines it with the base encoding using the monoid.
+//   - Validation: Validates the base struct first (monadic sequencing), then uses the
+//     Kleisli arrow to obtain the field codec for the decoded struct value, and validates
+//     the field through the lens. Errors are propagated but NOT accumulated (fail-fast
+//     semantics, unlike ApSL which accumulates errors).
+//
+// # Type Parameters
+//
+//   - S: The source struct type (what we're building a codec for)
+//   - T: The field type accessed by the lens
+//   - O: The output type for encoding (must have a monoid)
+//   - I: The input type for decoding
+//
+// # Parameters
+//
+//   - m: A Monoid[O] for combining encoded outputs
+//   - l: A Lens[S, T] that focuses on a specific field in S
+//   - f: A Kleisli[S, T, O, I] — a function from S to Type[T, O, I] — that produces
+//     the field codec based on the current struct value
+//
+// # Returns
+//
+// An Operator[S, S, O, I] that transforms a base codec by adding the field
+// specified by the lens, where the field codec is determined by the Kleisli arrow.
+//
+// # How It Works
+//
+// 1. **Encoding**: When encoding a value of type S:
+//   - Evaluate f(s) to obtain the field codec fa
+//   - Extract the field T using l.Get
+//   - Encode T to O using fa.Encode
+//   - Combine with the base encoding using the monoid
+//
+// 2. **Validation**: When validating input I:
+//   - Run the base validation to obtain a decoded S (fail-fast: stop on base failure)
+//   - For the decoded S, evaluate f(s) to obtain the field codec fa
+//   - Validate the input I using fa.Validate
+//   - Set the validated T into S using l.Set
+//
+// 3. **Type Checking**: Preserves the base type checker
+//
+// # Difference from ApSL
