Restructure entity storage from per-chapter subdirectories to a flat
canonical set in output/entities/. Each entity exists as a single file;
duplicates across chapters are detected by slug collision and skipped
(first occurrence wins). Chapter views use {{ include }} transclusion
to reference shared entity files.
Add @{existing_entities} macro to extract-entities template so the LLM
knows which entities already exist and focuses on genuinely new ones.
Refactor _call_llm() from _execute_llm() for callers that handle their
own file I/O. 41 unique entities from 4 chapters (2 duplicates removed).

# Manufactures
|
|
|
|
## Definition
|
|
|
|
The sector of production in which raw materials are transformed into finished
|
|
goods through a series of distinct operations, each typically performed by
|
|
specialised workers. Smith contrasts manufactures with agriculture, noting that
|
|
the former admits of far greater subdivision of labour and separation of trades,
|
|
and therefore exhibits far greater improvements in productive power.

## Source Chapter
|
|
|
|
Book I, Chapter 1: "Of the Division of Labour"
|
|
|
|
## Context
|
|
|
|
Manufactures serve as the primary setting for Smith's analysis of the division
|
|
of labour. The pin factory is a manufacture; so are the linen, woollen, and
|
|
hardware trades he references. Smith uses the greater divisibility of
|
|
manufacturing work to explain why rich countries excel more conspicuously over
|
|
poor countries in manufactures than in agriculture.
