+// Package gologshim provides slog-based logging for go-libp2p that works

-// Usage:
+// # Usage
 //
-//	var log = logging.Logger("subsystem")
+// Create loggers using the Logger function:
+//
+//	var log = gologshim.Logger("subsystem")
 //	log.Debug("message", "key", "value")
 //
-// When go-log's slog bridge is detected (via duck typing), gologshim
-// automatically integrates for unified formatting and dynamic level control.
-// Otherwise, it creates standalone slog handlers writing to stderr.
+// # Integration with go-log
+//
+// Applications can optionally connect go-libp2p to go-log by calling SetDefaultHandler:
+//
+//	func init() {
+//		gologshim.SetDefaultHandler(slog.Default().Handler())
+//	}
+//
+// When integrated, go-libp2p logs use go-log's formatting and can be controlled
+// programmatically via go-log's SetLogLevel("subsystem", "level") API to adjust
+// log verbosity per subsystem at runtime without restarting.
+//
+// # Standalone Usage
+//
+// Without calling SetDefaultHandler, gologshim creates standalone slog handlers
+// writing to stderr. This mode is useful when go-log is not present or when you
+// want independent log configuration via backward-compatible (go-log) environment variables:
 //
-// Environment variables (see go-log README for full details):
 //   - GOLOG_LOG_LEVEL: Set log levels per subsystem (e.g., "error,ping=debug")
 //   - GOLOG_LOG_FORMAT/GOLOG_LOG_FMT: Output format ("json" or text)
 //   - GOLOG_LOG_ADD_SOURCE: Include source location (default: true)
