# Procwire

> Documentation for Procwire v2 - high-performance binary IPC for Node.js (Protocol, Core, Client, Codecs).


Key Architectural Concepts:
- Procwire uses dual-channel architecture: Control Plane (JSON-RPC via stdio) + Data Plane (binary protocol via named pipes).
- Data Plane achieves ~2.5 GB/s throughput with zero JSON overhead.
- Four main packages: @procwire/protocol (wire format), @procwire/codecs (serialization), @procwire/core (parent-side), @procwire/client (child-side).
- Response types: none, ack, result, stream.
- All examples use TypeScript.
