+"""Generate and audit a closed obligation-preservation ledger.
+
+The row set is derived from every pre-existing ``skills/**/*.md`` path changed
+against an explicit base revision.  Humans bind each derived row to one exact
+current carrier in a JSONL mapping; this program never guesses or fuzzily binds
+carriers.  Line ranges in the reader-facing ledger are derived from the current
+files, so stale locators are detectable without putting a dirty-tree digest in
+the generated document.
