Drop the strict/widened aliases from src/index.ts so the factories are
exported under their own names, and align the type tests, the autocomplete
probe (which now imports the public surface from ./index.ts) and library.md
with them.
Also correct the widened-overload comment: the excess-property check does not
apply to a generic P, so MatcherWidening's keyof guard — not the closed
constraint — is what rejects keys outside T/_, as library.md already
documented.
The matcher is now two three-overload factories; library.md documents why
the union merge, inferred universe, conditional RequireKeys and cases-first
paths were rejected, and lists the two open issues (the fallback sees all of
T; a redundant _ is still accepted). testing.md records the language server
as the autocomplete oracle, and CONTRIBUTING points the exception at the
matcher's own test file.
The backlog marks the design-doc and autocomplete groundwork done alongside
the adoption.
Same decisions, rationale, rejected alternatives and known issues, said with
less padding: ~5,530 -> ~4,730 words (-15%). Every fact from the first draft is
kept; only the wording, duplicated lead-ins and restated context are cut.
Category files under development/ replace the decision prose that was
scattered through README.md and CONTRIBUTING.md. Each decision is a block with
Decision (YYYY-MM) / Why / Rejected / Known issue; the new library.md records
the public API contract and its limitations. AGENTS.md and backlog.tasks now
point at the new home.
