-Graph-based route extraction and bidirectional lookup enabling Actor Authority over navigation.

-Part of the [xmachines-js monorepo](../../README.md).
+This package extracts the routes from a machine graph and looks them up in both directions. The Actor therefore keeps the authority over the navigation.

- * **Pattern syntax** (`:param` / `:param?` / `*`):
- * - `:param` — required segment, matches exactly one non-`/` segment
- * - `:param?` — optional segment, matches zero or one non-`/` segment
- * - `*` — wildcard, matches any number of segments (URLPattern semantics)
+ * **The syntax of a pattern** (`:param`, `:param?`, and `*`):

+ * - `*` — a wildcard. It matches each number of segments, as URLPattern defines
  *
- * **StateId forms:** stateIds may be registered and looked up in either
- * `"#stateId"` or `"stateId"` form — `RouteMap` canonicalizes internally.
- * `getStateIdByPath` returns the stateId exactly as registered;
