Workflow
- Open
references/INDEX.md(orreferences/topics.json) and pick the one file that matches. - Read only that file; open another only if the task spans subjects. Grep across files when needed:
rg -n "PATTERN" references/*.md. - Treat every identifier as an exact reference fact — never invent or paraphrase.
