+# Compiler Versioning
+
+The SimplicityHL compiler enforces strict version compatibility to prevent contracts from silently breaking due to compiler updates, semantic changes, or new language features. 
+
+Every `.simf` file must begin with a compiler version directive:
+```rust
+simc ">=0.6.0";
+```
+
+## Semantic Versioning (SemVer)
+
+The compiler uses standard Semantic Versioning rules to evaluate whether a file is compatible with the currently running compiler. You can use operators to define acceptable ranges:
+
+* **Caret (`^`) or Bare strings:** `^0.6.0` or `0.6.0`. Allows patch-level and minor-level updates that do not modify the left-most non-zero digit. (e.g., `^0.6.0` allows `0.6.1`, but rejects `0.7.0`).
+* **Tilde (`~`):** `~0.6.0`. Allows only patch-level updates. (e.g., `~0.6.0` allows `0.6.1`, but rejects `0.6.2` if it introduces new minor features).
+* **Exact (`=`):** `=0.6.0`. Strictly requires this exact version of the compiler.
+* **Inequalities (`>`, `>=`, `<`, `<=`):** `>=0.6.0`. Allows any compiler version equal to or newer than `0.6.0`.
+* **Wildcards (`*`, `x`):** `0.x.x`. Allows any version matching the specified major release.
+* **Multiple Bounds:** `>=0.6.0, <1.0.0`. You can combine operators with a comma.
+
+### Pre-release versions
+If the compiler is currently on a pre-release version (e.g., `0.6.0-rc.0`), it will only match against contracts that explicitly request that exact pre-release base, or contracts that safely encompass the base version.
+
+## Multi-File Enforcement
+
+Version checking is performed eagerly immediately after the initial syntax parsing, before dependency resolution and semantic analysis occur. When building a multi-file project, the compiler driver evaluates the version directive of the `main.simf` entry point, as well as the directives of every external library file imported via the `--dep` flag.
+
+If *any* file in the dependency graph requires a compiler version that is incompatible with the currently running compiler, the driver immediately halts compilation. 
+
+This mathematical guarantee ensures that an older, stable library cannot be accidentally compiled with an incompatible compiler without the developer's explicit consent.
