This manual lives at manual/ as GNU TexInfo source. Build:
cd manual make # HTML, output to manual/html/ make pdf # PDF (requires texi2pdf + a TeX install) make info # GNU info reader format
The multi-page HTML output under manual/html/ is committed alongside the source, so anyone browsing the repo on disk can read it without installing texinfo. When you edit a chapter, rebuild and commit both the .texi change and the regenerated HTML.
Short-form reference docs at the repo root (README.md, INSTALL.md, CLI.md, REEMBED.md, MCPServer.md, OPENAI.md, OWNSONA_SPEC.md) are maintained alongside the manual. They are concise quick-references; the manual is the long-form authoritative version. If they disagree, the manual wins — update the short-form doc to match.
