|
.SH NAME
|
|
markitect \- high-performance markdown processing engine with AST caching
|
|
|
|
.SH SYNOPSIS
|
|
.B markitect
|
|
[\fIOPTION\fR]... [\fICOMMAND\fR] [\fIFILE\fR]...
|
|
|
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
MarkiTect is a high-performance markdown processing engine that implements a "parse-once, manipulate-many" architecture with intelligent AST caching and database-first metadata management.
|
|
|
|
The core innovation is that markdown files are parsed once and stored in multiple fast-access representations: JSON-serialized AST cache files, structured database metadata, and original content preservation. This enables complex document workflows without performance penalties.

.SH PERFORMANCE GUARANTEES
|
|
|
|
MarkiTect provides documented performance contracts:
|
|
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B Cache Loading Time
|
|
AST cache loading guaranteed to be < 50% of original markdown parsing time.
|
|
This is validated by automated tests and can be verified with \fBmarkitect benchmark\fR.
|
|
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B Database Queries
|
|
Metadata queries typically complete in sub-millisecond time for collections up to 10,000 documents.
|
|
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B Memory Usage
|
|
Constant memory usage for cache operations regardless of document size.
|
|
Memory scaling is linear with the number of documents processed simultaneously.
|
|
|
|

.B Parse-Once, Manipulate-Many
|
|
Source files are parsed once to create multiple fast-access representations:
|
|
.RS
|
|
- AST Cache: JSON-serialized Abstract Syntax Tree
|
|
.br
|
|
- Database Metadata: Structured front matter and document metadata
|
|
.br
|
|
- Original Content: Preserved for integrity validation
|

|
|
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B Intelligent Cache Invalidation
|
|
Cache files are automatically invalidated based on source file modification times.
|
|
No manual cache management required.
|
|
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B Database-First Metadata
|
|
Front matter becomes queryable relational data with full SQL capabilities.
