Compile raw sources into an interlinked markdown wiki. Inspired by Karpathy's LLM Wiki pattern: instead of re-discovering knowledge at query time, compile it once into a persistent, browsable artifact ...

Abstract: Code optimization is an essential feature for compilers and almost all software products are released by compiler optimizations. Consequently, bugs in code optimization will inevitably cast ...

OK, it seems to do the right thing (it’s just printing the number, not a newline). Let’s try to take a look at the code it produced!
