 ### `engine.systemBlock`
 
 The per-system frontmatter block: how one note feeds more than one game system through properties named after that system (`<system>.system`, `<system>.type`, `<system>.img`, `<system>.items` on actors). Resolves a field's value through the block, the shared top level, and a retiring position in that order, and merges an authored `<system>.system` onto a compiler-built one without disturbing what the builder already wrote.

 ### `engine.noteDates`
 
-A date on a note is one authored string. `<year>.<day>[:HHMMSS]` names a calendar-neutral day; `VR(720/5/14)` names an era marker and a date in that era's calendar. A marker is resolved from calendar notes in the corpus and contributes a canonical year, day, and sort key. Print `text`, order on `sort`, and do arithmetic on `canonicalYear`. The literal `unknown` has no sort key or canonical year. Unmarked slash dates and the addressed era qualifier are also accepted by the parser; a caller supplies the corpus marker map and world year length when it needs a marker resolved.
+A date on a note is one authored string. `<year>.<day>[:HHMMSS]` names a calendar-neutral day; `datefrom vrcal 23 Taranis 326 VR` names a calendar, a named month, and an era. Either form may begin with `~` for an approximate date. A resolved calendar date carries a canonical year, day, span and sort key. Print `prose ?? text`, order on `sort`, and do arithmetic on `canonicalYear`. The literal `unknown` has no sort key or canonical year. `resolvedDateFields` supplies identical derived records to JSONL and generated page frontmatter.

+### `engine.dateConversion`
+
+The exact-day conversion functions use the corpus reckoning context. A calendar with several eras requires an era in the named date. They reject dates outside the selected calendar and gaps between its eras. Approximate input keeps its `~` prefix in the result.

+### `engine.markdownExpressions`
+
+`renderMarkdownExpressions(body, { fm, dates, sqlResults, file, bodyLine })` expands scalar frontmatter references and registered Handlebars helpers outside Markdown code. The `dateformat` helper uses `formatDateInCalendar`; `gt`, `gte`, `lt`, `lte`, `eq`, `and`, `or`, and `not` evaluate explicit comparisons. The `sql` helper reads a prepared scalar result, which must contain one row and one column. `sqlQueriesInMarkdown` discovers SQL calls, including nested calls; `prepareInlineSqlExpressions` evaluates them through the same DuckDB connection as SQL tables. The renderer returns `{ markdown, findings }`, with source positions for invalid expressions. Site, Foundry and PDF passes invoke it after generated tables expand and before links resolve. Hugo shortcodes remain literal for the site renderer.

 ### `engine.reckoningMarkers`
 
-The corpus registry maps each declared marker to exactly one era and its calendar. An era start may use the canonical axis or a marker already resolvable from the corpus; duplicate markers and cycles are findings.
+The corpus registry maps every declared era to its calendar and each marker to exactly one era. Era starts may use the canonical axis or another declared era. Within one calendar, starts increase; the next start bounds the preceding era unless an explicit end leaves a gap. The first era also covers dates before its start and counts them with negative years. Later eras accept only forward year counts. Unknown eras, duplicate markers, invalid bounds, overlapping eras and dependency cycles are findings. Short qualifiers are ambiguous when they name eras in several packages; a full address selects one. This registry governs note dates; calendar definitions emitted for Foundry retain their consumer format.

 ### `engine.foundryEntries`
 
 Emitting this package's cross-package link manifest. `engine/content-address.mjs` owns the address _grammar_ — how a key is version is read, how a foreign file resolves. This module owns the _pass_: walking a content tree and deriving, for every note it publishes, the addresses that entry states. The two halves were split across the format module and a hand-written script in each consuming repository, which is how the two scripts came to differ in ways nobody chose — one routes its UUIDs through the pack router and one does not, and neither knew.

 ### `engine.contentIndex`
 
 Emitting this package's content index. Every content build already walks the whole note tree and parses every note's frontmatter — the pack compilers, the site build, and the content-table expander each do it — and every one of them throws the result away when it finishes. So nothing outside a build can ask a question about the content: "which beings carry no `kbcat`?", "what does this table actually select?", "did that type rename leave anything behind?" have no answer short of writing a throwaway script that re-walks the tree. Eight dead Bestiary tables shipped for weeks behind exactly that gap.

 ### `engine.siteBuild`
 
-Publishing a content tree as a website. Compiling a content tree into compendium packs is `content-build package compile`. Publishing the _same tree_ as a website was a script each consumer wrote for itself — 473 code lines in `sohl` and 462 in `sohl-thalorna`, 87 of them identical — and the copies drifted in ways neither repository could see. `sohl-thalorna` reimplemented four things this package already exported, not because it needed different behaviour but because its script predates the extraction. That is the failure a command removes: a consumer cannot accidentally reimplement one.

 Linting a content tree's **addresses** — the rules every package's notes are authored against, wherever those notes live. These rules do not live in a consumer's `utils/`, which has two consequences and no upside. `thalorna` and `kethira` notes were checked by nothing at all, so the packages most likely to carry authoring mistakes were the ones nothing inspected. And one rule with two implementations can disagree without anything detecting it, which the canonical-separator handling already did once on each side.

 ### `engine.contentCharset`
 
 The charset authored content is held to, so a book can choose its face. The packs and the website render in whatever font the reader's browser or Foundry supplies, and a glyph nobody has is somebody else's problem. **A book is not that.** A PDF embeds the faces it sets, so every character in the corpus is a claim on the book's typeface — and the claim is silent, which is what makes it expensive.

 ### `engine.contentIcons`
 
 Naming an interface icon in a note, without drawing it there. The user guide describes Foundry's interface, and it did so by pasting Unicode lookalikes of the icons the sheets actually draw: `☆` for the improve flag, `✎` for the formula editor, `◆` in the success-value table, `★★★` for mastery. The system renders every one of those with **Font Awesome** — a `fa-regular fa-star`, a `fa-solid fa-pen-to-square` — so the note and the screen it describes were drawing different pictures, and drifting apart with every sheet change.

 ### `engine.contentEmbeds`
 
 `![[address|label]]` — the wikilink that renders a picture where it stands. An embed is the wikilink the syntax module defines, with `!` meaning _render it here_, and the syntax supplying the default type `image`. It resolves to an ordinary markdown image before any surface renders it, so the figure, the staging list and the directive all come from the image machinery that already exists. An embed reaches asset types only.

 ### `engine.contentTables`
 
-Generated content tables from fenced `dataview` `TABLE` queries. A catalog table (every cloth armour, every animal's abilities) is data that already lives in the frontmatter of the notes it describes. Authoring such a table by hand duplicates that data and guarantees drift, so a content body instead declares what it wants tabulated, in a fenced `dataview` block:
+Prepared SQL content tables are expanded into Markdown before link resolution.
+A query selecting no rows reports an error unless its fence states
+`{allow-empty=true}`.

 ### `engine.helpers`
 
-Shared helpers for the pack compilers in `packages/content-build/`. The HeroicLands vault is authoritative for compendium item data. Pack compilers walk the vault, read markdown files with YAML frontmatter, and emit Foundry-compatible JSON. These helpers handle the common shape: markdown parsing, frontmatter access (including the nested `sohl:` block), filename generation, and slug normalization.

+Shared helpers for the pack compilers in `packages/package-build/`. The HeroicLands vault is authoritative for compendium item data. Pack compilers walk the vault, read markdown files with YAML frontmatter, and emit Foundry-compatible JSON. These helpers handle the common shape: markdown parsing, frontmatter access (including the nested `sohl:` block), filename generation, and slug normalization.
