+## Request/Response Format
+
+### Standard Response Structure
+```json
+{
+  "success": true,
+  "data": { ... },
+  "message": "Operation completed successfully",
+  "error": ""
+}
+```
+
+### Error Response Structure
+```json
+{
+  "success": false,
+  "error": "Error description",
+  "message": "User-friendly error message"
+}
+```
+
+## Example Usage
+
+### Create a Filesystem
+```bash
+curl -X POST http://localhost:8080/api/fs \
+  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+  -d '{
+    "name": "my_filesystem",
+    "description": "My test filesystem",
+    "quota_bytes": 1073741824
+  }'
+```
+
+### Create a Directory
+```bash
+curl -X POST http://localhost:8080/api/dirs \
+  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+  -d '{
+    "name": "documents",
+    "fs_id": 1,
+    "parent_id": 0,
+    "description": "Documents directory"
+  }'
+```
+
+### Find Files
+```bash
+curl -X POST http://localhost:8080/api/tools/find \
+  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+  -d '{
+    "fs_id": 1,
+    "pattern": "*.txt",
+    "recursive": true
+  }'
+```
+
+### Import File
+```bash
+curl -X POST http://localhost:8080/api/tools/import/file \
+  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+  -d '{
+    "fs_id": 1,
+    "real_path": "/path/to/local/file.txt",
+    "vfs_path": "/imported/file.txt",
+    "overwrite": false
+  }'
+```
+
+## HTTP Status Codes
+
+- `200 OK` - Successful operation
+- `201 Created` - Resource created successfully
+- `400 Bad Request` - Invalid request format or parameters
+- `404 Not Found` - Resource not found
+- `500 Internal Server Error` - Server error
+
+## CORS Support
+
+The server supports CORS for frontend integration. Configure allowed origins when creating the server:
+
+```v
+mut server := herofs_server.new(
+    cors_enabled: true
+    allowed_origins: ['http://localhost:3000', 'https://myapp.com']
+)!
+```
+
+## Error Handling
+
+The API provides comprehensive error handling with:
+- Input validation for all parameters
+- Proper HTTP status codes
+- Detailed error messages
+- Consistent error response format
+
+## Integration with HeroFS
+
+The server integrates seamlessly with the HeroFS module, providing:
+- Full access to all HeroFS functionality
+- Proper factory pattern usage
+- Data integrity through BLAKE3 hashing
+- Efficient Redis-based storage
+- Complete filesystem operations
+
+## Production Deployment
+
+For production use:
+1. Configure appropriate CORS origins
+2. Set up proper logging
+3. Configure Redis connection
+4. Set appropriate quotas and limits
+5. Monitor server performance
+
+The server is designed to be production-ready with proper error handling, validation, and performance considerations.
