 ### Register A Custom Backend
 
-Register a reusable OpenAI-compatible connection once, then select it from a
-profile. This local backend limits model generation to two simultaneous calls;
-because `QueueCapacity` is omitted, the engine admits up to 1024 additional
-calls waiting behind them:
+Choose the smallest configuration that fits how the endpoint will be reused.
+
+#### Use An Endpoint-Only Profile
+
+Put the endpoint directly on an in-memory profile when only that profile needs
+it and shared backend identity or capacity policy is unnecessary:
 
 ```go
 engine, err := promptkit.NewEngine(promptkit.Config{
 	PromptDir: "prompts",
 },
-	promptkit.WithBackend(promptkit.Backend{
-		ID:        "local",
-		Endpoint:  "http://localhost:8000/v1",
-		APIKeyEnv: "LOCAL_LLM_API_KEY",
-		ConcurrencyLimit: 2,
+	promptkit.WithProfiles(promptkit.Profile{
+		ID:       "local-summary",
+		Endpoint: "http://localhost:8000/v1",
+		Model:    "example-model",
 	}),
+)
+```
+
+Endpoint-only profiles have an empty backend ID and remain unrestricted by
+backend capacity policy.
+
+#### Use The Conventional Local Backend
+
+Use `LocalBackend` when profiles should share the conventional `local`
+identity, endpoint, and concurrency limit:
+
+```go
+engine, err := promptkit.NewEngine(promptkit.Config{
+	PromptDir: "prompts",
+},
+	promptkit.WithBackend(
+		promptkit.LocalBackend("http://localhost:8000/v1", 2),
+	),
 	promptkit.WithProfiles(promptkit.Profile{
 		ID:        "local-summary",
-		BackendID: "local",
+		BackendID: promptkit.BackendLocal,
 		Model:     "example-model",
 	}),
 )
 ```
 
+The helper is explicit: it does not pre-register a backend or read environment
+variables. Supplying a positive limit leaves queue capacity omitted, so normal
+backend registration selects the existing default waiting capacity of 1024.
+The returned value still enters the engine through `WithBackend`.
+
+#### Configure A Complete Backend
+
+Use a keyed `Backend` value for authentication, extra request parameters, an
+explicit queue capacity, a custom ID, or multiple local endpoints:
+
+```go
+noWaiting := 0
+engine, err := promptkit.NewEngine(promptkit.Config{
+	PromptDir: "prompts",
+},
+	promptkit.WithBackend(promptkit.Backend{
+		ID:               "local-gpu",
+		Endpoint:         "http://gpu-host:8000/v1",
+		APIKeyEnv:        "LOCAL_GPU_API_KEY",
+		ExtraParams:      map[string]any{"provider_option": "enabled"},
+		ConcurrencyLimit: 2,
+		QueueCapacity:    &noWaiting,
+	}),
+	promptkit.WithProfiles(promptkit.Profile{
+		ID:        "gpu-summary",
+		BackendID: "local-gpu",
+		Model:     "example-model",
+	}),
+)
+```
+
+Use distinct custom IDs when registering multiple local endpoints.
 Registrations belong to one engine and custom IDs cannot replace built-ins.

-copying, uniqueness, exact concurrency-field semantics, and request-default
-behavior.
