+# Context propagation
+
+Your service was handed a request carrying `x-request-id: rid-1`. servicewright's
+transports bind that id — and the user, tenant and trace ids next to it — into
+its request context for the whole unit of work. Every outgoing call that request
+makes should carry the same ids, or the trail stops at your service.
+
+`clientwright[servicewright]` wires that. servicewright's `propagation_metadata`
+already satisfies the `HeaderProvider` protocol as it is; the contrib module
+names the join so no service writes it by hand.
+
+## Wiring it
+
+```python
+from clientwright import AdapterDeps, ClientConfig, build
+from clientwright.contrib.servicewright import servicewright_headers
+
+deps = AdapterDeps(header_providers=servicewright_headers())
+client = build("httpx", ClientConfig(service_name="orders"), deps)
+
+# inside a unit of work the transport has bound (or your own bind_context block):
+await client.get("/inventory")  # x-request-id, x-user-id, x-tenant-id, x-trace-id
+```
+
+Only the ids actually bound travel: outside any bound context the provider
+returns nothing and the request goes out unchanged. A header the caller set
+explicitly is never overwritten — providers fill in what is missing.
+
+## Composing
+
+`servicewright_headers()` returns the providers tuple rather than a whole
+`AdapterDeps`, so it sits next to everything else you inject:
+
+```python
+from clientwright.adapters.observability import PrometheusClientMetrics
+from clientwright.contrib.deadline import AmbientDeadlineSource
+from clientwright.contrib.servicewright import servicewright_headers
+
+deps = AdapterDeps(
+    metrics=PrometheusClientMetrics(),
+    header_providers=servicewright_headers(),
+    deadline_source=AmbientDeadlineSource(),
+)
+```
+
+Your own providers go in the same tuple: `(*servicewright_headers(), my_provider)`.
+
+## A different header mapping
+
+`propagation_metadata` takes a `{context_key: header_name}` mapping; the helper
+uses servicewright's standard one. For another, build the tuple yourself:
+
+```python
+from functools import partial
+
+from servicewright import propagation_metadata
+
+deps = AdapterDeps(header_providers=(partial(propagation_metadata, {"request_id": "X-Correlation-ID"}),))
+```
+
+## Why an extra
+
+Unlike `contrib.deadline`, this module imports servicewright at import time —
+the real function is the point, there is nothing structural to type — so a
+missing extra fails at `import clientwright.contrib.servicewright` with an
+install hint. The extra pins `servicewright>=0.1,<1`; the export has not changed
+since 0.1.0.
