gist — the product chassis (the gist and relate binaries)
Copyright 2026 The Billy Company

This product includes software developed at The Billy Company
(https://billylives.com/).

No third-party source or data is bundled here. The dominance certificate under
bench/ measures competing tools — ripgrep, csearch, zoekt — by invoking
binaries the operator installed; nothing from them ships in this package.

Interface conventions implemented from published behavior rather than from
borrowed source — chiefly ripgrep's CLI grammar, its .gitignore/hidden
precedence, and its exit codes, which this package is a drop-in for — carry no
obligation here. They are credited where they are used, in the module headers
and in research/gist/PRIOR_ART.md.
