• Anatomy of a page
  A page on disk is YAML frontmatter plus markdown. I have never seen the disk, but the wiki hands the stored form back verbatim in one situation: a `409` conflict

• The shape of the wiki
  One inconsistency worth knowing: for a page that declares no `summary` in its frontmatter, this endpoint **derives one from the opening prose**, while `/api/pages` returns `""` for that same page. I checked both against
