 **dotmd-parser** solves this by parsing your `.md` files into a dependency graph — automatically detecting directives, runtime references, and template placeholders. One function call gives you the full picture.
 
+## Token savings — measured
+
+The single biggest reason to reach for `dotmd-parser` in an agent loop is
+that it lets Claude understand a folder **without reading every file**.
+The numbers below are produced by `tests/test_token_savings.py` (run
+with `DOTMD_TOKEN_REPORT=1 pytest -s`) using `tiktoken`'s `cl100k_base`
+encoding (a close proxy for Claude's tokenizer family):
+
+| Folder profile | Files | Naive read of every `.md` | `dotmd-index.md` | `digest` |
+|---|---:|---:|---:|---:|
+| Small skill (each file ~2 KB) | 4 | 1,610 tokens | **605 (0.38×)** | 174 (0.11×) |
+| Medium docs (each file ~2 KB) | 31 | 15,855 tokens | **2,837 (0.18× → 5.6× cheaper)** | 1,285 (0.08×) |
+| Large docs (each file ~2 KB) | 111 | 58,171 tokens | **9,535 (0.16× → 6.3× cheaper)** | 4,606 (0.08×) |
+
+**Takeaway**: at ~30 files dotmd-parser already cuts Claude's reading
+cost by **~5.6×**, and the savings *grow* with folder size. At 100+
+files the same context window now fits **6× more conversation**, or
+serves the same prompt at **1/6 the input-token spend**.
+
+The persistent `dotmd-index.md` artifact pays a fixed frontmatter
+overhead, so for *very small* folders (a handful of files of a few
+hundred bytes) the naive read can still win. The `digest` output is
+even more compact (~12× cheaper at scale) but isn't persisted on disk —
+use `dotmd-index.md` for stable navigation, `digest` for one-shot
+summaries.
+
+The break-even is around **4 files × 1 KB each**: above that,
+`dotmd-index.md` is always cheaper than reading the folder by hand.

+## `dotmd-index.md` — folder overview in a single file
+
+`dotmd-parser dotmd-index <path>` writes `<path>/dotmd-index.md`, a
+self-contained Markdown file that combines `inventory()` and
+`build_index()` into one artifact Claude can read **instead of**
+grep-scanning every file in the folder.
+
+The file contains:
+
+- YAML frontmatter (`schema`, `content_hash`, `stats`, RAG `chunks[]`)
+- `## Summary` (file counts, total size, health)
+- `## Folder Map` (depth-limited ASCII tree)
+- `## Files` (markdown: title + desc + deps; other: kind + size)
+- `## Dependency Tree` (`@include` / `@delegate` / `@ref` graph as ASCII)
+- `## Placeholders` (unresolved `{{...}}` variables)
+- `<!-- chunk:id -->` HTML markers so any RAG tool can split deterministically
+
+Re-running on an unchanged folder writes nothing (`content_hash` matches).
+The command refuses to overwrite a hand-written `dotmd-index.md` unless
+`--force` is passed.
+
+### Aggregating across nested folders
+
+Run with `--aggregate` to roll up descendant artifacts:
+
+```bash
+dotmd-parser dotmd-index ./project/ --aggregate
+# project/dotmd-index.md now references project/docs/dotmd-index.md and
+# project/src/dotmd-index.md without duplicating their file listings.
+```
+
+Each child is discovered, its frontmatter is read, and a one-line
+summary (file count, edges, health) appears under `## Sub-Indexes`.
+The `aggregates[]` frontmatter array records each child's `content_hash`
+so staleness is easy to detect. User-authored `dotmd-index.md` files
+that lack `generated_by: dotmd-parser` are silently skipped.
+
+This is a **reference**, not a merge — Claude reads the parent to learn
+which subfolders exist, then drills into the relevant child file. The
+parent stays token-efficient even with deeply nested trees.
+
+### OpenRAG integration
+
+[OpenRAG](https://github.com/langflow-ai/openrag) is a self-hosted RAG
+platform built on Langflow + Docling + OpenSearch. dotmd-parser can ship
+the artifact straight into it:
+
+```bash
+pip install dotmd-parser[openrag]       # adds openrag-sdk
+export OPENRAG_URL=http://localhost:3000
+export OPENRAG_API_KEY=...              # if your instance requires auth
+
+dotmd-parser dotmd-index ./docs/ --push-openrag
+# 1. Writes ./docs/dotmd-index.md
+# 2. Calls OpenRAGClient.documents.ingest(file_path=...)
+# 3. Records {document_id, base_url, pushed_at} in exports.openrag
+```
+
+`dotmd-index.md` is the **map** (one-shot overview); OpenRAG is the
+**search index** (full-content semantic retrieval). Register OpenRAG's
+MCP server with Claude Code to use both surfaces from the same client.
