+Suck data up through a channel
+
+## Features
+
+- Pull-based communication: Consumers request values on-demand
+- Contextual values: Designed for current state rather than event streams
+- Flexible sources: Support both static values and dynamic closures
+
+## Installation
+
+Add this to your `Cargo.toml`:
+
+```toml
+[dependencies]
+suck = "*"
+```
+
+## Quick Start
+
+```rust
+use suck::SuckPair;
+
+fn main() -> Result<(), Box<dyn std::error::Error>> {
+    // Create a pair
+    let (sucker, sourcer) = SuckPair::<i32>::pair();
+
+    // Start producer in a thread
+    let producer = std::thread::spawn(move || {
+        // Set a static value
+        sourcer.set_static(42).unwrap();
+
+        // Or set a dynamic closure
+        sourcer.set(|| {
+            // Generate fresh values each time
+            42 * 2
+        }).unwrap();
+
+        // Run the producer loop
+        sourcer.run().unwrap();
+    });
+
+    // Consumer pulls values
+    let value = sucker.get()?;
+    println!("Got value: {}", value);
+
+    // Clean up
+    sucker.close()?;
+    producer.join().unwrap();
+
+    Ok(())
+}
+```
