+#### BIP388 Wallet Policy Backup Content
+
+When `CONTENT` is `TYPE = 0x01` with `DATA = 0x0184` (BIP388), `PLAINTEXT` is a
+UTF-8 JSON wallet policy backup document. A BIP388 wallet policy is a descriptor
+template plus a vector of key information items, as defined in BIP388.
+
+Test vectors are in
+[`bip388.json`](./bip-0138/test_vectors/bip388.json).
+
+The document is one of two forms:
+
+- A single policy, a JSON object `{ "keys": [...], "policy": "<template>" }`.
+- Multiple policies, a JSON object `{ "version": 1, "policy_sets": [...] }`.
+
+Parsers select the form by structure: an object with a `policy_sets` field is the
+multiple form, an object with a `policy` field is the single form.
+
+##### Policy Fields
+
+`keys` is a required array of BIP388 key information items, each a serialized
+extended public key with optional key origin (`[fingerprint/path]xpub`). It MUST
+contain at least one key. Keys MUST NOT contain private key material.
+
+`policy` is a required non-empty string containing a BIP388 wallet descriptor
+template, with `@i` key placeholders referring to `keys`.
+
+##### Policy Set Fields
+
+A policy set has the same `keys` and `policy` fields as the single form, plus the
+optional metadata fields:
+
+If optional boolean `archived` is `true`, importing wallets SHOULD NOT use the
+policy for new address generation.
+
+`range` is an optional two-element array `[start, end]`, inclusive, describing the
+ranged derivation indexes covered by the policy.
+
+`birth_time` is an optional integer Unix timestamp in seconds, indicating a lower
+bound for when the policy may have received funds. Importing wallets MAY use this
+value as a scanning hint.
+
+##### Multiple Policies Document
+
+The multiple form is a JSON object with the following fields:
+
+- `version`: integer. This specification defines version `1`.
+- `policy_sets`: array of policy set objects.
+
