+"""Generate llms.txt, llms-full.txt, and per-page markdown (https://llmstxt.org/).
+
+The hook publishes three artifacts into the built site:
+
+- `llms.txt`: a markdown index of the documentation, one link per page,
+  grouped by nav section.
+- a `.md` rendition of every prose page next to its HTML (e.g.
+  `server/index.md`), which is what the llms.txt links point at.
+- `llms-full.txt`: every prose page concatenated for single-fetch consumption.
+
+Page markdown is the source markdown with `--8<--` snippet includes resolved
+and relative links rewritten to absolute URLs. The API reference page
+(`api.md`) is a mkdocstrings stub with no markdown source, so it is linked as
+rendered HTML from an Optional section instead of being embedded.
+
+Incremental builds (`mkdocs build --dirty`) are rejected: they skip unmodified
+pages, which would silently truncate the generated artifacts.
