### Features

- **Fast Lookup**: O(1) hash-based term retrieval
- **Flexible Search**: Case-insensitive partial matching
- **Categorized Organization**: 8 categories with indexing
- **Extensible**: Easy to add new terms and categories
- **Statistics**: Comprehensive vocabulary analytics

### Usage Example

```idris
-- Create enhanced system with full vocabulary
system = defaultEnhancedSystem

-- Analyze a theorem
theorem = "For all x, the derivative of x squared is 2x"
enhanced = enhanceTheorem theorem system

-- Get recommendations
recommendedProvers = enhanced.recommendedProvers
bestProver = selectBestProver enhanced system.provers

-- Format the theorem
formatResult = formatTheorem enhanced system
```

## 🤖 Prover System

### Core Provers (Type-Safe)

10 well-known provers with full type safety:
- Z3, CVC5 (SMT solvers)
- Agda, Coq (dependent type)
- Lean 4/3 (theorem provers)
- Isabelle (higher-order logic)
- Vampire, E (ATP systems)
- TLC, Alloy (model checkers)

### Scalable Registry

Architecture that supports thousands of provers:
- **Modular design**: Each prover in separate module
- **Dynamic registration**: Avoids compiler limitations
- **Categorized**: Organized by prover type
- **Priority-based**: Ranking system for recommendations

### Intelligent Selection

```idris
-- The system automatically:
1. Analyzes theorem text
2. Extracts vocabulary terms
3. Suggests appropriate categories
4. Recommends optimal provers
5. Provides confidence scores
```

## 📈 Performance

### Benchmark Results (Initial)

| Operation | Time | Throughput |
