:icons: font

Complete tooling ecosystem for A2ML development and deployment.

== Overview

The A2ML tooling suite provides:

1. **CLI** - Command-line validator and converter
2. **LSP Server** - Editor integration (VS Code, Neovim, Emacs)
3. **REPL** - Interactive A2ML development
4. **Converters** - A2ML ↔ Markdown/HTML/Djot/LaTeX
5. **Build Tools** - Compilation and packaging scripts

== CLI Tool (a2ml)

=== Installation

[source,bash]
----
cd a2ml/cli
./build.sh

# Install system-wide
sudo cp ../build/exec/a2ml /usr/local/bin/

# Or user-local
cp ../build/exec/a2ml ~/.local/bin/
----

=== Commands

==== Validate

[source,bash]
----
$ a2ml validate paper.a2ml
✓ Valid A2ML document: paper.a2ml
  IDs: 12
  Refs: 5
----

**Checks:**
- Unique IDs across all elements
- Reference resolution (all @refs resolve)
- Required sections (if specified)
- Directive syntax
- Structural integrity

**Exit codes:**
- `0` - Valid document
- `1` - Validation errors
- `2` - Parse errors
- `3` - File not found

==== Quick Check

[source,bash]
----
$ a2ml check draft.a2ml
✓ Valid A2ML syntax: draft.a2ml
  Blocks: 23
----

Faster than full validation - only checks syntax, not semantic properties.

==== Format

[source,bash]
----
$ a2ml format messy.a2ml > clean.a2ml
----

Formats according to A2ML style guide:
- Consistent indentation
- Canonical directive ordering
- Normalized whitespace

==== Convert

[source,bash]
----
# A2ML → Markdown
$ a2ml convert a2ml md paper.a2ml > paper.md

# A2ML → HTML
$ a2ml convert a2ml html paper.a2ml > paper.html

# A2ML → Djot
$ a2ml convert a2ml djot paper.a2ml > paper.dj

# A2ML → LaTeX
$ a2ml convert a2ml tex paper.a2ml > paper.tex
----

**Supported formats:**
- `a2ml` - Attested Markup Language
- `md` / `markdown` - CommonMark Markdown
- `html` / `htm` - HTML5
- `djot` - Djot markup
- `tex` / `latex` - LaTeX
- `txt` / `text` - Plain text

==== Statistics

[source,bash]
----
$ a2ml stats paper.a2ml
Statistics for: paper.a2ml

  Lines: 342
  Bytes: 12456

  Total blocks: 45
  IDs defined: 12
  References: 5

  Block types:
    Sections: 8
    Paragraphs: 25
    Bullets: 7
    Figures: 3
    Tables: 2
----

== LSP Server (a2ml-lsp)

=== Features

**Real-time diagnostics:**
```
document.a2ml:15:3: error: Unresolved reference 'fig:missing'
document.a2ml:23:1: error: Duplicate ID 'intro'
```

**Auto-completion:**
- Directive completion: `@` triggers `@abstract:`, `@refs:`, etc.
- ID completion: Shows available IDs for references

**Go-to-definition:**
- Click on reference → Jump to ID definition

**Find references:**
- Right-click on ID → Find all uses

**Hover information:**
```
ID: intro
Type: Section
References: 3 locations
```

**Code actions:**
- "Create missing section" for unresolved refs
- "Rename ID" for duplicate IDs
- "Add required section" for missing sections
