hallouminate 0.2.1

A markdown corpus indexer for LLMs to build and query their own per-repo wikis.
Documentation
//! Optional page-level YAML frontmatter (lifecycle + provenance).
//!
//! Hallouminate enforces no markdown schema, so frontmatter is *optional*: a
//! leading `---…---` block is parsed when present and stripped before the body
//! reaches the chunker, summary, and keyword passes — it must never pollute
//! retrieval. Absence is the normal case and every recognized field is
//! optional. Parsing is fail-soft: a malformed, unterminated, or non-mapping
//! block is treated as plain body content rather than rejecting the file, since
//! the corpus stores the author's bytes verbatim.
//!
//! Only recognized fields are read; unknown YAML keys are ignored (the file on
//! disk stays the source of truth). The parsed fields are serialized to a
//! single canonical JSON string that the storage layer denormalizes onto every
//! chunk row, where the downstream lint pass (E2) can consume them.
