+For `lang="ts"` components, `sveld` keeps source-level prop type annotations when it can, instead of forcing JSDoc. That covers legacy `export let` props, typed `$props()` destructuring (whole-object and per-prop), local `interface`/`type`/`enum` declarations, and TypeScript signatures on accessor exports (`export function`). Any type a prop annotation or accessor signature depends on — whether imported with `import type` or as a plain value import used only in a type position — is re-emitted as an `import type` at the top of the generated `.d.ts`, and local `interface`/`type`/`enum` declarations it depends on are copied alongside it. Everything stays textual: no semantic expansion, and `satisfies`/`as` are treated alike. A `const enum` is widened to a literal union of its member values instead of being re-declared, since `const enum` isn't supported by common bundlers under `isolatedModules`.
 
 By default, generated `.d.ts` files extend `SvelteComponentTyped` from `svelte`, so TypeScript and the Svelte Language Server work whether consumers use Svelte 3, Svelte 4, or Svelte 5. Set `typesOptions.format: "component"` to instead emit the Svelte 5 `Component` type; see [`typesOptions.format`](#typesoptionsformat).

+`sveld` statically analyzes exported components and emits docs for consumers. Template parsing runs through sveld's own parser rather than `svelte/compiler`; `svelte/compiler` is imported only for its types, and `svelte/package.json` is read for the installed Svelte version. A differential test (`tests/svelte-template-parse-shim.test.ts`) parses every fixture `.svelte` file with both parsers and asserts the resulting ASTs match, and a weekly `svelte-canary` workflow re-runs that comparison against `svelte@latest` ahead of the lockfile pin.

They are always returned from the programmatic `sveld()` API in `SveldResult.diagnostics`. Each diagnostic carries an optional `source` range (the same `{ start: { line, column }, end: { line, column } }` shape as JSON output source ranges) whenever the parser holds a stable position for it.

+#### Diagnostic codes
+
+Every diagnostic carries a stable, namespaced `code` (`"sveld/<kind>"`) alongside the older `kind`, so CI config and `diagnostics.ignore` matchers (below) have something that won't shift if the human-readable `message` text changes:
+
+| Code | Severity | Fix |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| `sveld/prop-unknown-type` | `warning` | Add a native TypeScript annotation, a `@type` JSDoc tag, or an initializer sveld can infer a type from. |
+| `sveld/context-any-type` | `warning` | Annotate the `setContext` value's declaration with `@type` or a native TypeScript type. |
+| `sveld/slot-missing-type` | `warning` | Add the required `{Type}` annotation to the `@slot`/`@snippet` tag (e.g. `@slot {{}} name`); until then it falls back to `Record<string, never>`. |
+| `sveld/event-no-source` | `warning` | Dispatch the event (`createEventDispatcher`/`dispatch`), forward it (`on:name`), or add a matching `on<Name>` callback prop; otherwise remove the stale `@event` tag. |
+| `sveld/example-compile-error` | `error` | Fix the `@example` TS/JS code block so it type-checks, or remove the broken example. |
+| `sveld/example-syntax-error` | `error` | Fix the `@example` `svelte`/`html` markup so it parses, or remove the broken example. |
+| `sveld/syntax-skipped` | `error` | Rewrite the flagged syntax in a form sveld can model (see the diagnostic's `message` for what was skipped). |
+| `sveld/rest-props-unresolved` | `warning` | Spread `$$restProps` onto a plain element (or `svelte:element`) instead of a component, or add an `@restProps` tag to type it manually. |
+| `sveld/context-duplicate-key` | `warning` | Remove the duplicate `setContext` call, or give it a distinct key; only the first call's shape is used. |
+| `sveld/spread-unresolved` | `warning` | Spread a local object literal or a variable with a resolvable type instead; otherwise the spread widens the generated type to `Record<string, any>`. |
+| `sveld/export-unresolved` | `warning` | Export a local declaration directly instead of re-exporting an import or a binding from another file; sveld only resolves exports of a local declaration. |
+| `sveld/extend-props-target-missing` | `error` | Point `@extends`/`@extendProps` at a file that exists, and (for a bundled `.svelte` target) name its generated `<Name>Props` interface exactly. |
+| `sveld/extend-props-duplicate` | `warning` | Remove the extra `@extends`/`@extendProps` tag; only the last one is used. |
+| `sveld/extend-props-override` | `warning` | Rename the own prop, or accept that it intentionally overrides the `@extends` target's prop of the same name. |
+| `sveld/jsdoc-unknown-tag` | `warning` | Fix the tag name if it's a typo (e.g. `@depreacted` → `@deprecated`); otherwise no action needed, the tag still passes through unchanged. Only surfaced under `--strict`/`--report-diagnostics`. |
+| `sveld/typedef-duplicate` | `warning` | Rename one of the `@typedef`/`@callback` declarations; only the later one is kept. |
+| `sveld/property-duplicate` | `warning` | Remove the duplicate `@property`; only the later one is kept. |
+| `sveld/generics-conflict` | `warning` | Rename one of the `@generics`/`@template` declarations to a distinct generic name. |
+| `sveld/jsdoc-tag-dropped` | `warning` | Move the tag next to a `@slot`/`@snippet`/`@event`/`@typedef`/`@callback` tag in the same comment block so it has something to attach to. |
+| `sveld/internal-typedef-referenced` | `error` | Remove `@internal`/`@ignore` from the referenced typedef, or stop referencing it from public type text (inline the shape, or make the referencing item `@internal` too). |
+
+#### Severity and `--strict=errors`
+
+Each diagnostic's `severity` is `"error"` (`example-compile-error`, `example-syntax-error`, `syntax-skipped`, `extend-props-target-missing`, `internal-typedef-referenced` — sveld emitted broken or unmodeled output) or `"warning"` (`prop-unknown-type`, `context-any-type`, `slot-missing-type`, `event-no-source`, `rest-props-unresolved`, `context-duplicate-key`, `spread-unresolved`, `export-unresolved`, `extend-props-duplicate`, `extend-props-override`, `jsdoc-unknown-tag`, `typedef-duplicate`, `property-duplicate`, `generics-conflict`, `jsdoc-tag-dropped` — a type fell back to `any`). Plain `strict: true` / `--strict` fails on both, unchanged from before. Pass `strict: "errors"` (or `--strict=errors`) to fail CI only on `error`-severity diagnostics, letting `any`-fallback warnings through:
+
+```sh
+npx sveld --json --strict=errors
+```
+
+```ts
+await sveld({ json: true, strict: "errors" });
+```
+
+#### Ignoring diagnostics
+
+Two ways to suppress a diagnostic without disabling `strict` for the whole run. Either way, the diagnostic still appears in `SveldResult.diagnostics` (with `ignored: true`) and is still counted in the text summary (`sveld: 2 unresolved types found (1 ignored).`), but never fails `--strict` / `--strict=errors`.
+
+**Config matchers** (`diagnostics.ignore`, an array of `{ code?, component?, name? }`): every field you set on a matcher must match for it to apply; an omitted field matches anything. `component` is a glob (`*` within a path segment, `**` across segments):
+
+```ts
+// sveld.config.js
+export default defineConfig({
+  diagnostics: {
+    ignore: [
+      // Every prop-unknown-type diagnostic under legacy/.
+      { code: "sveld/prop-unknown-type", component: "./legacy/**" },
+      // One named symbol, anywhere.
+      { name: "internalOnly" },
+    ],
+  },
+});
+```
+
+**Inline `@sveld-ignore <code>`**, on the same JSDoc comment as the prop, `@event` tag, or context variable it applies to:
+
+```svelte
+<script>
+  /**
+   * @sveld-ignore sveld/prop-unknown-type
+   */
+  export let value;
+</script>
+```
+
+```svelte
+<script>
+  /**
+   * @event {CustomEvent<null>} legacyEvent
+   * @sveld-ignore sveld/event-no-source
+   */
+  export let label;
+</script>
+```
+
+A bare `@sveld-ignore` (no code) suppresses every diagnostic for that symbol.

 ## Requirements
 
-- Node 22+. CI tests against Node 22 on Linux, Windows, and macOS; earlier LTS versions are not verified.
+- Node 22+ if your config is `sveld.config.js` or `sveld.config.mjs` — `sveld` declares no `engines.node` floor. A `sveld.config.ts` file loads via a raw `import()`, with no transpile step, so it only works if the runtime strips TypeScript itself: on Node this needs unflagged type stripping (Node 22.18 / 23.6+; on older Node 22 patches it's behind `--experimental-strip-types`, so use a `.js`/`.mjs` config instead), which is why Node 24 — the first current major where type stripping is always on — is the only reason to require it. Bun (see `.bun-version`) loads `.ts` configs without Node at all. CI runs on Bun and does not pin a Node version; the release workflow pins Node 24 for `actions/setup-node` on the npm publish job only, not a requirement for consumers.
 - `sveld` is ESM-only. `require("sveld")` does not work — use `import` or dynamic `import()`.
-- `sveld` bundles its own Svelte 5 compiler to parse `.svelte` files. Parsing does not depend on the Svelte version installed in your project, so Svelte 3 and Svelte 4 codebases parse the same way Svelte 5 codebases do — there is no compiler version to match up.

Ignored diagnostics and changes below `--check-level` produce no annotation. When the `GITHUB_STEP_SUMMARY` env var is set (GitHub Actions sets it automatically), sveld also appends a Markdown table mirroring the same rows to that file, so the job summary shows them even for someone not reviewing the diff. A minimal workflow step:
+

+- run: npx sveld --json --check --report-diagnostics --strict=errors --format=github

 Run `npx sveld --help` for the full flag list with descriptions, or `npx sveld --version` to print the installed version.
 
+Pass `--glob` with a directory as `--entry` (no barrel file) to document every `.svelte` file under it directly, with no re-export needed: each component's sanitized filename becomes its module name in JSON, Markdown, and the generated `index.d.ts`, in addition to the per-component `.d.ts` every `--glob` run already produces. This is the same set `mergeGlobbedComponents` discovers when `--glob` is combined with a file entry; a directory entry just has no barrel to layer it onto.

 `--check` does not write the snapshot. Run `sveld --json` (or `sveld --json --check`) and commit the file when you want to update it. If there is no snapshot yet, `--check` prints a notice and exits `0`.
 
 Use `--check=<path>` to diff against a snapshot at a custom location (defaults to `jsonOptions.outFile`, or `COMPONENT_API.json`).
 
+By default `--check` only fails the run (exit `3`) on a `major` bump; `minor` and `patch` changes are still reported but don't fail CI. Pass `--check-level=minor` or `--check-level=patch` to fail the run at a lower threshold, e.g. to gate a package that promises no additive changes without a minor release.
+
+If the committed snapshot's `schemaVersion` doesn't match the version `sveld` currently emits, `--check` reports a `kind: "schema"` entry instead of diffing (a version mismatch isn't a semver bump) and exits `1` (usage error): regenerate the snapshot with `sveld --json`.
+
 The CLI exits non-zero on any fatal error (an unreadable entry, a config file that throws, etc.), not just on `--strict`/`--check` findings, so it's safe to use either flag as a CI gate. See [Exit codes](#exit-codes) for how these are differentiated.
 
 Pass `--format=json` for a machine-readable report on `stdout` instead of the prose above, e.g. `sveld --check --format=json | jq '.bump'` or `sveld --check --format=json | jq '.changes[] | select(.bump == "major")'`.

+
+CI and local runs usually want a different bundle of `strict`, `reportDiagnostics`, `check`, and `checkExamples` flags, previously assembled by hand. `--strict=ci`/`strict: "ci"` and `--strict=local`/`strict: "local"` are shorthands for two common bundles. Bare `--strict`/`strict: true` (and `--strict=errors`) are unchanged.
+
+`--strict=ci` expands to `{ strict: true, reportDiagnostics: true, check: true, checkExamples: true }` — the full gate for a CI job:
+
+```sh
+npx sveld --json --strict=ci
+```
+
+`--strict=local` expands to `{ reportDiagnostics: true }` — diagnostics printed for a developer to see, without failing the command or requiring a committed `COMPONENT_API.json` snapshot:
+
+```sh
+npx sveld --json --strict=local
+```
+
+The profile's keys are applied first, then any other key set alongside `strict` overrides it, so you can opt back out of one piece:

 Each exported component becomes one `javascript-module` with a class declaration:
 
-- **Members** — every prop becomes a `ClassField` (`name`, `type.text`, `default`, `description`, `deprecated`).
-- **Attributes** — derived conservatively from props: only props with a bare primitive type (`string`, `number`, or `boolean`) become attributes, using the same default name Svelte's custom-element runtime uses (`prop.toLowerCase()`, unless the tool's own `attribute` override applies). Props whose lowercased name collides with another prop are dropped from `attributes` on both sides, since which one wins at runtime is ambiguous. Complex types (arrays, objects, unions, custom types) never become attributes.
+- **Members** — every `export let`/`const` prop becomes a `ClassField` (`name`, `type.text`, `default`, `description`, `deprecated`; `readonly: true` for an `export const`). An accessor prop (`export function`) becomes a `ClassMethod` (`name`, `static: false`, `parameters`, `return.type.text`) instead — see [Accessor methods](#accessor-methods) below.
+- **Attributes** — every prop becomes an attribute (Svelte's custom-element runtime observes one for every prop by default), excluding `export function` accessors. The attribute name is `prop.toLowerCase()` by default, or the `customElement.props.<name>.attribute` config when set — see [Object-form `customElement` config](#object-form-customelement-config) below. Props that collide on the same attribute name keep the first (in declaration order); the rest are skipped with a console warning, since which one wins at runtime is ambiguous.
 - **Events** — dispatched events (`createEventDispatcher()`, and `$host().dispatchEvent(...)` from inside a custom element) become `{ name, type: { text: "CustomEvent<...>" } }`. Forwarded (`on:click`) events are left out, since they aren't dispatched by the component's own class.
 - **Slots** — named and default slots, with descriptions. The default slot's `name` is `""`, matching the CEM convention.
+- **`cssParts`/`cssProperties`** — from `@csspart`/`@cssprop` JSDoc tags — see [CSS parts and custom properties](#css-parts-and-custom-properties) below.
 
 When a component sets `<svelte:options customElement="x-foo" />` (or the object form, `<svelte:options customElement={{ tag: "x-foo" }} />`), its declaration gets `tagName: "x-foo"` and `customElement: true`, and the module's `exports` include a `custom-element-definition` export alongside the plain `js` export.
 
 Components without `customElement` still emit a plain class declaration (no `tagName`/`customElement`) — useful for documenting the class shape even before it's compiled as a custom element, but the manifest is most useful for `customElement`-compiled builds, where downstream tooling can resolve `tagName`, `attributes`, and `events` for actual custom-element usage.

+
+An `export function` prop (a Svelte accessor, e.g. `export function focus() { ... }`) becomes a `ClassMethod`, not a `ClassField`, and is excluded from `attributes` (accessors aren't part of Svelte's props definition). `parameters`/`return` come from `@param`/`@returns` JSDoc when present, otherwise from splitting the function's TypeScript signature text (e.g. `(id: string) => boolean`).

+ * @cssprop {Color} [--card-background=white] - Background color of the card.

+#### Detail inference without `@event`
+
+Without an `@event` tag or a typed dispatcher, `sveld` infers a dispatched event's detail type from the `dispatch()` call site itself:
+
+- A scalar literal argument narrows to its literal type: `dispatch("count", 5)` types the detail as `5`, not `number`. Use `@event` or a typed dispatcher (below) to widen it.
+- An object or array literal argument infers a structural type per field/element: `dispatch("save", { id })` types the detail as `{ id: string }` (resolving the `id` variable's own type), and `dispatch("items", [1, 2])` types it as `number[]`. Fields or elements sveld can't resolve fall back to `any` individually, not for the whole detail.
+
+#### Typed dispatchers
+
+`createEventDispatcher<T>()`'s generic argument (`lang="ts"`, or the JSDoc `/** @type {import('svelte').EventDispatcher<T>} */` cast form) works like an `@event` block for every member of `T`, including ones never actually dispatched in the file:
+
+```svelte
+<script lang="ts">
+  import { createEventDispatcher } from "svelte";
+
+  const dispatch = createEventDispatcher<{ save: { id: string }; cancel: null }>();
+</script>
+```
+
+`T` may also be a reference to a local `type`/`interface`. An `@event` tag for the same name still overrides the generic's detail type.
+
 #### Using `@property` for complex event details
 
 For events with complex object payloads, use `@property` to document individual fields. The main comment becomes the event description. See the [`@property`](#property) reference for the tag's valid contexts.

 Any free-text prose after the tags is attached to the event description, not to a property doc.
 
+### `@ignore` / `@internal`
+
+`@ignore` and `@internal` are equivalent aliases: either one excludes a prop, event, slot, typedef, module export, entry export, or context from every output — JSON, Markdown, `.d.ts`, and the Custom Elements Manifest. Use them for implementation details that would otherwise leak into the public API docs.
+
+The tag's position mirrors [`@deprecated`](#deprecated): before `@slot`/`@snippet`/`@typedef`/`@callback`, alongside the description, and after the `@event` line.
+
+```svelte
+<script>
+  /** The visible label. */
+  export let label = "";
+
+  /**
+   * Implementation detail; not part of the public API.
+   * @internal
+   */
+  export let debugId = "";
+
+  /**
+   * Fired when the value changes.
+   * @event {{ value: string }} change
+   */
+
+  /**
+   * Fired for internal diagnostics only.
+   * @event {{ reason: string }} debug
+   * @internal
+   */
+
+  /**
+   * @internal
+   * @slot {{}} debug-panel
+   */
+</script>
+```
+
+`debugId`, the `debug` event, and the `debug-panel` slot never appear in `COMPONENT_INDEX.md`, `COMPONENT_API.json`, the generated `.d.ts`, or the Custom Elements Manifest — as if they were never declared. Internally, the parser still records them (with an `internal: true` flag) on the raw parsed component; only `buildComponentApiDocument` — the shared step every writer runs through — filters them out, so a custom writer built on the raw parse result can still see them if it chooses to.
+
+For a context (`setContext(key, value)`), tag the JSDoc on the *value* variable, the same place its type annotation and description already live:
+
+```svelte
+<script>
+  /**
+   * @type {{ token: string }}
+   * @internal
+   */
+  let authContext = { token: "" };
+
+  setContext("auth", authContext);
+</script>
+```
+
+A whole inline object literal passed directly to `setContext` (no intermediate variable) has no JSDoc position of its own, so `@internal` isn't supported there. An individual property *inside* one can be marked `@internal`, though, as long as its value is an identifier carrying its own JSDoc:
+
+```svelte
+<script>
+  /**
+   * @type {string}
+   * @internal
+   */
+  let debugToken = "";
+
+  let publicUser = { name: "" };
+
+  setContext("session", { user: publicUser, debug: debugToken });
+</script>
+```
+
+Only the `debug` property is excluded from `session`'s generated shape; `user` and the context itself are unaffected.
+
+Because an internal member never appears in output, adding `@internal` to a previously-public prop, event, slot, or typedef is a breaking change for `--check` purposes (it disappears from the generated `.d.ts` just like an outright removal). Removing an already-`@internal` member, by contrast, is not breaking — it was never part of the committed public snapshot to begin with.
