Implementation Notes

Keep implementation notes explicit.

Use the manifest endpoint for deterministic fixture selection in CI, then validate MIME/type detection against actual parser output.

If this format appears in multiple categories, prefer category-specific hub pages to keep test assumptions aligned with real usage.
