 ### Organization of the circuit code
 
+- `codex` - the storage proof circuit
+- `poseidon2` - Poseidon2 hash function
+- `lib` - general purpose, reusable circom templates ("circuit library")
+
+In `codex`:
+
 - `sample_cells.circom` - compute cell indices to sample, and prove those cells
 - `single_cell.circom` - prove a single cell
 - `merkle.circom` - Merkle inclusion proof (using our custom Merkle tree convention)
+
+In `poseidon2`
+
+- `poseidon2_hash.circom` - compute Poseidon2 hash with sponge construction
+- `poseidon2_sponge.circom` - generic sponge construction
+- `poseidon2_perm.circom` - the Poseidon2 permutation
+- `poseidon2_compr.circom` - the compression function
+
+In `lib`:
+
 - `extract_bits.circom` - extract lower bits of the *standard representation* of a field element
 - `binary_compare.circom` - compare numbers given in binary representation (the point is that they can be bigger than the field size!)
 - `log2.circom` - circom code for computing base 2 logarithm
 - `misc.circom` - miscellaneous helper funtions
-- `poseidon2_hash.circom` - compute Poseidon2 hash with sponge construction
+
-- `poseidon2_sponge.circom` - generic sponge construction
+
-- `poseidon2_perm.circom` - the Poseidon2 permutation
+### Main component
 
 Note: the main component is not included in the above, as it depends on the
 parameters. You can use one of the reference input generators to create one;
-or look at `deprecated/slot_main.circom` for an example.
+if you want to do manually, it should look like this:
+
+    pragma circom 2.0.0;
+    include "sample_cells.circom";
+    
+    // argument conventions:
+    // SampleAndProven( maxDepth, maxLog2NSlots, blockTreeDepth, nFieldElemsPerCell, nSamples )
+    component main {public [entropy,dataSetRoot,slotIndex]} = SampleAndProve(32, 8, 5, 67, 100);

+//   - whether the node we are dealing with has 1 or 2 children (odd or even node)
+// 
+// These are two bits, encoded as numbers in the set {0,1,2,3} 
+// (the lowest bit is 1 if it's the bottom layer, 0 otherwise; the next bit 
+// is 1 if it's an odd node, 0 if even node). Furthermore:
+// 
+//   - in case of an odd node with leaf x, we apply the compression to the pair (x,0)
+//   - in case of a singleton input (the whole Merkle tree is built on a single field element), we also apply one compression
+//   - the keyed compression is defined as applying the permutation to the triple (x,y,key), and extracting the first component of the resulting triple
