Maintainer index

This section is for people changing the codebase and trying to keep the contract intact.

If you are a user of the CLI/API, you probably want docs/user/usage.md instead.

Non-negotiables

• Preserve the spec (docs/spec/*) unless you intentionally version a breaking change.
• Preserve the documentation checksum invariant (docs/doc_checksums.json + docs/index.md list).
• Do not add hidden behavior (silent retries, implicit state, non-auditable side effects).
