AI Parsing Rules

Guidelines for AI agents consuming StratMD documents:

Parsing Strategy

1. Use YAML parser for frontmatter
2. Extract H2 sections as primary structure
3. Parse tables as array-of-objects
4. Resolve [[links]] via filename graph
5. Prefer structured tables over narrative mining

Table Parsing

Tables should be parsed with:

• Headers as object keys
• Each row as an object
• IDs preserved for cross-referencing

Link Resolution

[[filename]]           → Find file by name
[[filename#Heading]]   → Find file + section
[[filename#ID]]        → Find file + element ID

Confidence and Status Fields

When present, these fields indicate:

• Confidence - Certainty level (0-100%)
• Status - Current state (untested, validated, invalidated)
• Trend - Direction (up, down, stable)
