+## Now Playing Notifications
+
+Kaset posts a distributed notification named `com.sertacozercan.Kaset.playerInfo`
+whenever discrete playback state changes (current track, play/pause, like status,
+shuffle, or repeat). External now-playing surfaces — menu-bar widgets, or notch apps
+such as boring.notch — can observe it to refresh reactively instead of polling on a
+timer.
+
+The notification is a **bare, change-only trigger**:
+
+- It carries no payload (the App Sandbox strips `userInfo` from a sandboxed sender),
+  so observers read the current state with `get player info`.
+- It fires only on a *change*; there is no initial snapshot and a missed notification
+  is not resent. Observers should call `get player info` once on startup for the
+  initial state and keep a low-frequency poll as a fallback.
+- High-frequency values — **playback position and volume** — are intentionally not
+  triggers (they would flood the notification during playback and volume drags). Read
+  `position` and `volume` from `get player info`, polling if you need them live.
+
 ## Error Handling
 
 If the player service is not yet initialized (e.g., during app launch), commands will return AppleScript error `-1728` with the message "Player service not initialized."
