Generating Lattice

Generate and maintain lat.md/ knowledge graphs — structured, cross-referenced markdown anchored to source code symbols. The output is validated by the lat CLI, which catches documentation drift whenever code or docs change.

The core mechanism is bidirectional linking:

• Top-down (docs → code): [[src/auth.js#getValidToken]] wiki links in lat.md/ files point to specific symbols in source. When a symbol is renamed or deleted, lat check catches the broken link.
• Bottom-up (code → docs): // @lat: [[auth#Token Refresh]] comments in source point back to the concept they implement. When a section is renamed or removed, lat check catches the dangling reference.

Without both directions, the lattice is a static essay that drifts silently. With both, lat check enforces consistency.
