# Feature Doc Entity

### Scope

- **Purpose**: Document every user-facing capability of `workspace_tools` so developers understand what the crate does and why.
- **Responsibility**: Define scope, design rationale, and cross-references for each implemented feature; serve as the navigational hub from feature to source, tests, and API.
- **In Scope**: Feature scope definitions, language-agnostic design decisions, and cross-reference tables linking source files, test files, tasks, and related docs for each capability.
- **Out of Scope**: API method signatures (see `api/`), test documentation, implementation algorithms, and speculative future features.
