title: "Reference"
---

Placeholder for auto-generated variable catalog.

Planned approach: build script pulls `/metadata` from a local Microsimulation, groups variables by `gov/agency/program` path, renders each as a `.qmd` page with label, entity, unit, documentation, and source references drawn directly from the Python class attributes. Pages regenerate on each release so reference docs never drift from the code.

For now, the authoritative listing is `policyengine_us/programs.yaml` at the repo root.
