 ### Key Concepts
 
-- **`dcr.toml`** — конфигурационный файл проекта (аналог `Cargo.toml`). Секции: `[package]`, `[build]`, `[toolchain]`, `[dependencies]`, `[workspace]`.
+- **`~/.dcr/`**: Centralized storage for registries and configurations.
-- **Профили сборки**: `debug` (по умолчанию) и `release`. Встроенные флаги зависят от компилятора. Пользовательские флаги через `build.cflags` / `build.ldflags`.
+- **`config.toml`**: File in `~/.dcr/` defining available package indices and their priorities.
-- **Инкрементальная сборка**: объектные файлы кешируются по mtime. Отслеживание заголовков пока не реализовано (см. `TODO.md`).
+- **`dcr.toml`**: Local project configuration.
-- **Workspace**: корневой `dcr.toml` с секцией `[workspace]` описывает member-проекты и их зависимости; сборка происходит в топологическом порядке.
+- **Registry System**: `RegistryManager` handles package discovery across multiple indices based on priority.
-- **Path dependencies**: зависимости по путям автоматически добавляют include/lib-пути; генерируется `dcr.lock`.
-- **Build kinds**: `bin` (бинарник), `staticlib` (`.a`), `sharedlib` (`.so`/`.dylib`/`.dll`).

+DCR supports cross-compilation via `--target <triple>` or short names:
+
+- `dcr build --target linux --release` (maps to `x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu`)
+- `dcr build --target macos --release` (maps to `x86_64-apple-darwin`)
+- `dcr build --target windows --release` (maps to `x86_64-pc-windows-msvc`)
+- Full triples: `dcr build --target aarch64-linux-gnu --release`
+- Configure multiple targets in `dcr.toml`:
+  ```
+  [build.targets]
+  targets = ["linux", "macos"]
+
+  [build.linux]
+  compiler = "gcc"
+
+  [build.macos]
+  compiler = "clang"

 ## Build Profiles
 Two profiles are supported:
 - `--debug` (default) - built-in flags per compiler
 - `--release` - built-in flags per compiler
 
 Custom flags can be added in `dcr.toml` via `build.cflags` and `build.ldflags`.
+Profile-specific flags can be added via `[build.debug]` and `[build.release]`.
 You can also set `build.target` to override the output directory (profile-independent).
 You can set `build.platform` to pass `-march=<platform>` (GCC/Clang) or `/arch:*` (MSVC) where supported.
 Use `build.kind = "staticlib"` to build a static library instead of a binary.
 Use `build.kind = "sharedlib"` to build a shared library (`.so`/`.dylib`/`.dll`).
 `dcr run` is only for `build.kind = "bin"` and will fail for libraries.

+## Cross-compilation
+
+DCR supports cross-compilation via `--target <triple>` or short names:
+
+```sh
+dcr build --target linux --release    # x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu
+dcr build --target macos --release    # x86_64-apple-darwin
+dcr build --target windows --release  # x86_64-pc-windows-msvc
+dcr run --target aarch64-linux-gnu
+```
+
+Configure multiple targets and target-specific settings in `dcr.toml`:

+```toml
+[build.targets]
+targets = ["linux", "windows"]
+
+[build.linux]
+compiler = "gcc"
+cflags = ["-O2"]

+```
+
+See [Cross-compilation guide](docs/dependencies-and-build/cross-compilation.md) for details.

+
+### `dcr gen project-info`
+
+Outputs project metadata as JSON array.
+
+```sh
+dcr gen project-info [--debug | --release]
+```
+
+Outputs structured information about the project (root project + all workspace members if present):
+
+```json
+[
+  {
+    "name": "my-project",
+    "version": "1.0.0",
+    "root": "/path/to/root",
+    "profile": "debug",
+    "language": "c++",
+    "standard": "c++17",
+    "compiler": "g++",
+    "kind": "bin",
+    "sources": ["/path/to/root/src/main.cpp", ...],
+    "include_dirs": ["/path/to/dep/include", ...],
+    "lib_dirs": ["/path/to/dep/lib", ...],
+    "libs": ["somelib", ...],
+    "cflags": ["-Wall", ...],
+    "ldflags": ["-lm", ...]
+  }
+]
+```
+
+This is useful for integrating DCR projects with custom build tools or scripts.
+
+### `dcr gen compile-commands`
+
+Generates `compile_commands.json` for use by `clangd`, `clang-tidy`, and other tools.
+
+```sh
+dcr gen compile-commands [--debug | --release]
+```
+
+Writes `./compile_commands.json` containing compilation database entries for all source files. This file is recognized by:
+- LSP servers (`clangd`, `clang-tools-extra`)
+- Linters (`clang-tidy`)
+- Format tools (`clang-format`)
+
+The entries include:
+- Full compiler command with flags
+- Source file path
+- Object file output path
+- Project root as working directory
+
+### `dcr gen vscode`
+
+Generates Visual Studio Code integration files.
+
+```sh
+dcr gen vscode [--debug | --release]
+```
+
+Creates `.vscode/` directory with:
+
+- **`launch.json`**: Debug configurations (one per binary target, debug + release variants)
+- **`tasks.json`**: Build/run/clean tasks using `dcr` commands
+- **`settings.json`**: Clangd configuration pointing to `compile_commands.json`
+- **`extensions.json`**: Recommends `clangd`, disables `cpptools`
+- **`compile_commands.json`**: Compilation database (same as `dcr gen compile-commands`)
+
+Usage in VSCode:
+- Open the Command Palette (`Ctrl+Shift+P`) and select **"Debug: Start Debugging"** to run debugger
+- Press `Ctrl+Shift+B` to run the build task
+- Clangd will provide IntelliSense and diagnostics based on `compile_commands.json`
+- Generated `launch.json` uses CodeLLDB (`type: "lldb"`), so install `vadimcn.vscode-lldb`
+
+### `dcr gen clion`
+
+Generates JetBrains CLion integration files.
+
+```sh
+dcr gen clion [--debug | --release]
+```
+
+Creates `.idea/` directory with:
+
+- **`externalTools.xml`**: Registers DCR build/clean/gen commands as external tools
+- **`customTargets.xml`**: Defines build targets for debug and release
+- **`misc.xml`**: Points CLion to `compile_commands.json` for compilation database
+- **`.idea/.gitignore`**: Ignores auto-generated files
+- **`runConfigurations/*.xml`**: Debug run configs (one per binary target)
+- **`compile_commands.json`**: Compilation database (same as `dcr gen compile-commands`)
+
+Usage in CLion:
+- Build/clean via **Tools → DCR → Build Debug/Release/Clean**
+- Run/debug via **Run → Run Configurations** (dropdown) → select generated config
+- Code completion and diagnostics come from the compilation database
+

+- Workspace members (if `[workspace]` is present)
+
+## Workspace support
+
+When running `dcr gen` in a workspace root, all commands process both the root project and all workspace members:
+
+- `project-info` returns an array with entries for each member + root
+- `compile-commands` includes entries from all members
+- `vscode` and `clion` generate unified configurations that work across all members
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Clangd not picking up includes
+
+- Ensure `compile_commands.json` exists in the workspace root
+- In VSCode settings, verify `clangd.arguments` includes `--compile-commands-dir=<workspace-root>`
+- Rebuild via `dcr gen compile-commands` if sources or dependencies changed
+
+### Debug configuration not working
+
+- Verify binary paths in `launch.json` match actual build output (`target/<profile>/binary-name`)
+- For workspace projects, each member's debug config uses its own `target/` directory
+- Ensure GDB/LLDB is installed: `gdb --version` or `lldb --version`
+- If VSCode reports unsupported debugger type, install the extension that matches `launch.json` type (`vadimcn.vscode-lldb` for `lldb`)
+
+### CLion not recognizing includes
+
+- Regenerate via `dcr gen clion --debug`
+- File → Invalidate Caches → Invalidate and Restart
+- Verify `.idea/misc.xml` points to correct `compile_commands.json` path
+
+## Notes
+
+- Profiles default to `debug` if not specified
+- Generation does not require the project to be built first
+- Generated files are safe to commit; they are generated from `dcr.toml` and thus repeatable
+- IDE configurations may be customized after generation, but changes will be overwritten on next `dcr gen` run
+- For multi-binary projects, `vscode` and `clion` generate debug configs for all binaries (both debug + release variants)

+## Usage
+
+```sh
+dcr test
+dcr test --release
+dcr test --target linux
+dcr test --init
+```
+
+## What `test` does
+
+1. Builds the project with the specified profile/target.
+2. Compiles test files in `tests/` (e.g., `tests/test.c`) into a test binary.
+3. Runs the test binary and parses output for PASS/SKIP/FAIL results.
+4. Reports summary with colored output.
+
+## Test Structure
+
+DCR uses a simple test framework:
+
+- Header: `tests/dcr_test.h` (generated by `dcr test --init`)
+- Test file: `tests/test.c` (template generated by `dcr test --init`)
+- Macros: `TEST(name)`, `TEST_CASE(name)`, `EXPECT(condition)`, `SKIP(reason)`

 ## Fields
 
-- `language` (string, required): `c`, `c++`, `cpp`, `cxx`, or `asm`.
+- `language` (string or array, required): `c`, `c++`, `cpp`, `cxx`, or `asm`.
+  Mixed languages can be specified as an array, for example `["c", "c++", "asm"]`.
 - `standard` (string, required): language standard passed to compiler.
 - `compiler` (string, required): compiler command (for example `clang`, `gcc`, `cl`).
 - `kind` (string, required): `bin`, `staticlib`, or `sharedlib`.
+- `inherit` (bool, optional): inherit settings from base `[build]` (default `true`). If `false`, only use target/profile specific settings.
+- `targets` (string array, optional): list of targets to build simultaneously. Supports short names (`linux`, `macos`, `windows`).
 - `target` (string, optional): custom output directory for final artifact.
 - `platform` (string, optional): architecture hint for compiler (used for `-march` or `/arch`).
 - `cflags` (string array, optional): extra compile flags.
 - `ldflags` (string array, optional): extra link flags.
+- `exclude` (string array, optional): paths or glob patterns to skip during source/header collection.
+- `include` (string array, optional): allowlist paths or globs that override `exclude`.
+- `include` directory entries (non-glob) are also passed to the compiler as `-I` include paths.
+- `roots` (string array, optional): additional source roots to scan instead of `src/`.
+- `src_disable` (bool, optional): disables default `src/` root when true.
+- `pkg_config` (string array, optional): packages used to append `pkg-config --cflags/--libs`.

+- `clean` (string array, optional): additional paths removed by `dcr clean` and `--clean`.
+
+Notes for `exclude`/`include`:
+- Supports `*` and `**` glob patterns.
+- If `include` is set, it has priority over `exclude`.
+- Use `include` to re-allow nested paths, for example exclude `src/boot` but allow `src/boot/arch/**`.
+When using glob patterns in `exclude`, DCR converts them internally, so `exclude` globs still work as expected.
+
+### Build steps
+
+Build steps run shell commands before compilation. Post steps run after linking.
+
+```toml

+in = "target/{profile}/boot/*.bin"
+out = "/tmp/image/os-{version}.img"
+cmd = "dd if=/dev/zero of={out} bs=1M count=8"
+```
+
+Step notes:
+- `in` supports glob patterns.
+- If `in` expands to multiple files, `out` must include `{stem}`.
+- Steps run only when inputs are newer than outputs.
+- Variables: `{in}`, `{out}`, `{stem}`, `{cflags}`, `{uic}`, `{moc}`, `{rcc}`, `{profile}`,
+  `{version}`, `{version_major}`, `{version_minor}`, `{version_patch}`, `{version_suffix}`, `{version_suffix_dash}`.
+
+`build.clean` supports `{profile}` and version placeholders (`{version}`, `{version_major}`, ...).
+
+### Profile overrides
+
+Profile tables inherit all values from `[build]`. Any field present in the profile table replaces the base value.
+Array fields (like `cflags`/`ldflags`) are appended to the base array.
+
+Target tables override profile and base settings for specific targets. Full inheritance order:
+1. `[build.<target>.<profile>]`
+2. `[build.<profile>.<target>]`
+3. `[build.<target>]`
+4. `[build.<profile>]`
+5. `[build]`
+
+If custom `cflags` are set (non-empty), default compiler flags are disabled.

+# Cross-compilation and Targets
+
+DCR supports cross-compilation to different platforms using the `--target` flag. This allows building your project for architectures and operating systems different from the host.
+
+## Basic Usage
+
+```bash
+# Build for a specific target
+dcr build --target x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu --release
+
+# Short names for common platforms
+dcr build --target linux --release    # x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu
+dcr build --target macos --release    # x86_64-apple-darwin
+dcr build --target windows --release  # x86_64-pc-windows-msvc
+
+# Run for a specific target
+dcr run --target linux --release
+```
+
+## Supported Targets
+
+### Short Names
+- `linux` → `x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu`
+- `macos` → `x86_64-apple-darwin`
+- `windows` → `x86_64-pc-windows-msvc`
+
+### Full Target Triples
+DCR supports any valid target triple in the format `<arch>-<vendor>-<os>-<abi>`. Common examples:
+- `x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu`
+- `aarch64-linux-gnu`
+- `x86_64-apple-darwin`
+- `aarch64-apple-darwin`
+- `x86_64-pc-windows-msvc`
+- `i686-pc-windows-gnu`
+
+## Configuration
+
+### Multiple Targets
+
+Configure multiple targets to build simultaneously:
+
+```toml
+[build.targets]
+targets = ["linux", "macos", "windows"]
+
+# Or per profile
+[build.release.targets]
+targets = ["linux", "macos"]
+```
+
+If no `--target` is specified, DCR builds for all targets in `build.targets` (or native if empty).
+
+### Target-Specific Settings
+
+Override settings for specific targets:
+
+```toml
+[build.linux]
+compiler = "gcc"
+cflags = ["-Wall", "-O2"]
+
+[build.macos]
+compiler = "clang"
+cflags = ["-Wall", "-O2", "-arch", "x86_64"]
+
+[build.windows]
+compiler = "x86_64-w64-mingw32-gcc"
+ldflags = ["-static"]
+```
+
+### Target-Specific Toolchain
+
+Configure toolchain per target:
+
+```toml
+[toolchain.linux]
+cc = "gcc"
+ld = "ld"
+
+[toolchain.macos]
+cc = "clang"
+ld = "ld"
+
+[toolchain.windows]
+cc = "x86_64-w64-mingw32-gcc"
+ld = "x86_64-w64-mingw32-ld"
+```
+
+### Target-Specific Run Commands
+
+Use custom run commands per target:
+
+```toml
+[run.linux]
+cmd = "./target/linux/release/myapp"
+
+[run.macos]
+cmd = "open ./target/macos/release/myapp.app"
+
+[run.windows]
+cmd = "wine ./target/windows/release/myapp.exe"
+```
+
+## Workspace and Dependencies Inheritance
+
+Workspace and dependencies sections also support target/profile inheritance:
+
+```toml
+[workspace.linux]
+members = [
+  { name = "lib1", path = "libs/lib1" },
+]
+
+[dependencies.linux]
+sdl2 = { system = true, include = ["/usr/include/SDL2"] }
+
+[dependencies.windows]
+sdl2 = { system = true, include = ["C:/SDL2/include"] }
+```
+
+Order: `workspace.target.profile` → `workspace.profile.target` → `workspace.target` → `workspace.profile` → `workspace`.
+
+Add `inherit = false` to disable inheritance in any section.
+
+Settings are applied in order:
+1. `[build.<target>]`
+2. `[build.<profile>]`
+3. `[build]`
+

+
+For cross-compilation, configure toolchains:
+
+```toml
+[toolchain]
+cc = "aarch64-linux-gnu-gcc"
+cxx = "aarch64-linux-gnu-g++"
+ar = "aarch64-linux-gnu-ar"
+ld = "aarch64-linux-gnu-ld"
+```
+
+## Output Structure
+
+Build outputs are organized by target:
+
+```
+target/
+├── native/
+│   ├── debug/
+│   └── release/
+├── x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/
+│   ├── debug/
+│   └── release/
+└── aarch64-linux-gnu/
+    ├── debug/
+    └── release/
+```
+
+## Requirements
+
+- Cross-compilation requires appropriate toolchains installed (e.g., `aarch64-linux-gnu-gcc` on Arch Linux).
+- For Windows targets on Linux, install MinGW: `pacman -S mingw-w64-gcc`.
+- For macOS targets on Linux, use `osxcross` or similar.
+
+## Examples
+
+### ARM Linux Build
+
+```bash
+# Install toolchain (Arch Linux)
+pacman -S aarch64-linux-gnu-gcc
+
+# Configure
+echo '[build.aarch64-linux-gnu]
+compiler = "aarch64-linux-gnu-gcc"' >> dcr.toml
+
+# Build
+dcr build --target aarch64-linux-gnu --release
+```
+
+### Windows Build on Linux
+
+```bash
+# Install toolchain (Arch Linux)
+pacman -S mingw-w64-gcc
+
+# Configure
+echo '[build.windows]
+compiler = "x86_64-w64-mingw32-gcc"' >> dcr.toml
+
+# Build
+dcr build --target windows --release
+```
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+- **Toolchain not found**: Ensure the compiler is installed and in PATH, or configure `[toolchain]` in `dcr.toml`. For Arch Linux: `pacman -S aarch64-linux-gnu-gcc` for ARM, `pacman -S mingw-w64-gcc` for Windows cross-compilation.
+- **Linking errors**: Check `ldflags` and library paths for cross-compilation.
+- **Header issues**: Include paths may differ; use target-specific `cflags`.

+# Flags & environment
+
+This page summarizes runtime flags and environment variables that affect DCR behavior.
+
+## Build/run flags
+
+Used with `dcr build` and `dcr run`:
+
+- `--debug`: select debug profile.
+- `--release`: select release profile.
+- `--force`: ignore incremental cache checks and rebuild.
+- `--clean`: remove `target/<profile>` and `build.clean` paths before build.
+
+Notes:
+
+- Flags can be passed in any order.
+- Duplicate profile flags are rejected.
+
+## Clean flags
+
+Used with `dcr clean`:
+
+- `--debug` / `--release`: clean only selected profile directory.
+- `--all`: in workspace root, also clean all members.
+
+## Environment variables
+
+Tool selection overrides:
+
+- `DCR_COMPILER` (all languages)
+- `DCR_CC`, `DCR_CXX`, `DCR_AS`, `DCR_AR`, `DCR_LD`
+
+Diagnostics:
+
+- `DCR_DEBUG=1` enables verbose build logging.
+
+## Quick examples
+
+```sh
+# Force full release rebuild
+dcr build --release --force
+
+# Clean before debug run
+dcr run --clean --debug
+
+# Use custom compiler from env
+DCR_CC=clang-18 dcr build --debug

+# Troubleshooting map
+
+Fast mapping from symptom to likely cause and first action.
+
+## `dcr.toml file not found`
+
+Likely cause:
+- you are outside project root (or member root).
+
+First action:
+```sh
+pwd
+ls
+```
+Run DCR from directory that contains `dcr.toml`.
+
+## `Invalid config: missing [package]` / `missing [build]`
+
+Likely cause:
+- incomplete config in root project.
+
+First action:
+- ensure root `dcr.toml` includes `[package]`, `[build]`, and `[dependencies]`.
+- for workspace setups, keep these sections in root and add `[workspace]` additionally.
+
+## `Unknown build flag` or profile-flag errors
+
+Likely cause:
+- typo in flag or duplicate profile flag.
+
+First action:
+```sh
+dcr --help
+```
+Use only supported flags and at most one of `--debug` / `--release`.
+
+## Dependency include/lib path errors
+
+Likely cause:
+- path in `[dependencies]` does not exist.
+
+First action:
+- verify `path`, `include`, `lib` values.
+- if using profile placeholders, confirm expanded paths exist for selected profile.
+
+## `Cannot run library build`
+
+Likely cause:
+- `build.kind` is `staticlib` or `sharedlib`.
+
+First action:
+- switch `build.kind` to `bin`, or set `[run].cmd` if you intentionally need custom run command.
+
+## Build succeeds but output is stale
+
+Likely cause:
+- stale artifacts or generated files from previous runs.
+
+First action:
+```sh
+dcr clean --all
+dcr build --force
+```
+
+## `dcr --update` suggests package manager update
+
+Likely cause:
+- DCR binary is managed by pacman/AUR.
+
+First action:
+```sh
+yay -Syu dcr
+# or
+paru -Syu dcr
+```

+# Workspace guide
+
+`[workspace]` lets you build related DCR projects in dependency order from one root.
+
+## Important rule
+
+Workspace root still needs a valid root project config:
+
+- `[package]`
+- `[build]`
+- `[dependencies]`
+
+`[workspace]` augments that root config; it does not replace required root sections.
+
+## Minimal example
+
+```toml
+[package]
+name = "root-app"
+version = "0.1.0"
+
+[build]
+language = "c"
+standard = "c11"
+compiler = "clang"
+kind = "bin"
+
+[dependencies]
+
+[workspace]
+core = { path = "./modules/core", deps = [] }
+net = { path = "./modules/net", deps = ["core"] }
+app = { path = "./modules/app", deps = ["core", "net"] }
+```
+
+Each member path must point to a directory containing its own `dcr.toml`.
+
+## Build behavior
+
+- Running `dcr build` in workspace root builds members in topological dependency order, then builds the root project.
+
+- Running `dcr clean --all` in workspace root cleans all members too.
+
+- `dcr gen` in workspace root includes root + members in generated outputs.
+
+## Common errors
+
+- `workspace.<name>.path does not contain dcr.toml`:
+  member path is wrong or config is missing.
+- `workspace dependency '<name>' not found`:
+  `deps` references unknown member.
+- `workspace dependency cycle at <name>`:
+  cyclic dependencies in member graph.
