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).

The Workman
Definition
The individual labourer who performs productive work, whether in manufacturing or agriculture. In the context of the division of labour, the workman is the operative unit whose dexterity, time, and inventiveness are the channels through which specialisation increases output. Smith portrays the workman both as a beneficiary of the division of labour (higher output) and as its agent (inventing machinery through focused attention).
Source Chapter
Book I, Chapter 1: "Of the Division of Labour"
Context
The workman appears throughout the chapter as the primary actor: the pin-maker, the nailer, the country weaver, the boy at the fire engine. Smith attributes both the productive gains and many mechanical inventions to ordinary workmen.
