Purpose

Create comprehensive, accurate API reference documentation by reading source code and extracting exact method signatures. Follows the Diátaxis Reference pattern for information-oriented documentation with zero tolerance for fabricated methods or incorrect signatures.

Diátaxis Framework: Reference Documentation

Reference Type Characteristics:

• Information-oriented - Describes the machinery, not how to use it
• Technical descriptions - Facts about APIs, parameters, return types
• Complete coverage - Every public method and type documented
• Structured consistently - Same format for all entries
• Exact signatures - Verified against source code
• Minimal examples - Usage demonstrations, not step-by-step tutorials
