# Use Markitect Context Packages

## Context

The problem is that the engine needs Markdown-native structure and context
packages without owning a second Markdown parser or selector language.

## Decision

We will use markitect-tool as the Markdown syntax, selector, deterministic
operation, snapshot, and context-package layer for Markdown-backed assets.

## Consequences

- Engine assets stay cross-format and durable.
- Markdown selectors stay Markitect-owned.
- Adapter provenance can be stored with engine transformation runs.
