+Wine currently returns success from `UiaRaiseNotificationEvent` without
+delivering its text. The native application hooks redirect direct imports of
+that function to the reader. This works with both 32-bit and 64-bit applications;
+it requires no application files or per-game DLL overrides. Notifications from
+background processes are ignored. Important notifications interrupt speech,
+and an empty important notification cancels speech. Each notification is
+bounded to 4095 UTF-16 code units without splitting surrogate pairs.
+
+The bridge covers direct named imports, rather than calls obtained dynamically
+with `GetProcAddress`. It leaves implementations that reject a missing provider
+untouched. The hook DLL remains mapped until the application exits so redirected
+imports remain valid across reader restarts. Close and reopen applications after
+updating Wine Access to load the new hooks. `--no-dialog-reader` disables these
+hooks along with standard control reading.

 The executable is named `cthulhu-wine-access.exe` for compatibility with the
 Cthulhu-Go supervisor.
