+# ZIO Blocks Schema Iron
+
+Integration between ZIO Blocks Schema and [Iron](https://github.com/Iltotore/iron) for type-safe refinement types.
+
+## Installation
+
+```scala
+libraryDependencies += "dev.zio" %% "zio-blocks-schema-iron" % "0.0.1"
+```
+
+## Usage
+
+```scala
+import zio.blocks.schema.*
+import zio.blocks.schema.iron.given
+import io.github.iltotore.iron.*
+import io.github.iltotore.iron.constraint.numeric.*
+
+case class Person(name: String, age: Int :| Positive)
+
+object Person:
+  given Schema[Person] = Schema.derived
+
+// Now you can use Person with any format
+val jsonCodec = Schema[Person].derive(JsonFormat)
+
+// Decoding with validation
+val validJson = """{"name":"Alice","age":25}"""
+val invalidJson = """{"name":"Bob","age":-5}"""
+
+jsonCodec.decode(validJson.getBytes)   // Right(Person(Alice,25))
+jsonCodec.decode(invalidJson.getBytes) // Left(SchemaError: Should be strictly positive at: .age)
+```
+
+The integration automatically derives `Schema[A :| C]` from `Schema[A]` with runtime validation using Iron's constraints.
+
+## Known Limitations
+
+Due to how ZIO Blocks handles opaque types in derived schemas, encoding refined types may not work correctly in all cases. Decoding and validation work as expected.
