docs/API.md is 18.7k lines and its anchors are signature slugs, so editing a signature breaks the 281 internal and 88 README links into it. Blizzard solved the same problem by shipping the API as data plus a browser addon, and warcraft.wiki.gg renders those same tables. One set of descriptors can feed all three. Each registration now carries one next to it: typed arguments and returns, nilability, defaults, and a sentence. Events, enumerations and returned table shapes are described the same way. No Script_* body changed. Game.h gains namespace Game::Doc (Field with Req/Opt/Vararg, FieldList, Function, Method, Structure, Event) and a trailing descriptor argument on all six Game::Lua::Register* plus Event::Custom::AutoReserve. api/Documentation.cpp records every registration on the first pass of each Lua state and seals it, so /reload re-registers but records nothing and the environment comes from which pass saw the name. Export is lazy: nothing is materialized until C_APIDocumentation.GetSystem asks for one system, because eager export would build thousands of tables per reload for a slash command. _classicapi_UndocumentedAPI lists what still has no descriptor. AddOns/!!!ClassicAPI/APIDocumentation/ ports Blizzard_APIDocumentation's eight files. Named /classicapi, not /api: the browser holds only what ClassicAPI adds, so /api would have implied the whole 1.12 surface. Two deliberate differences from the retail source, both noted in the file headers: a system search also matches its namespace, since that is the name people type; and an undocumented function says so, because an empty signature otherwise reads as a real one. LinkUtil gains the SetItemRef to LinkUtil.ProcessLink dispatch. That handler registry was dead code; a new link type now registers a handler instead of stacking another SetItemRef override. Also defines assertsafe there, which was undefined and only mattered once the function went live. Documented: the C_Spell and C_SpellBook surface, the spell globals, both spellbook enumerations, the 13 UNIT_SPELLCAST_* events, GameTooltip as the widget-method example and C_Glue as the glue and mixed-environment example. 66 of 692 function registrations. tools/New-ApiDocSkeletons.ps1 emits paste-ready skeletons to make the rest of the sweep tractable. Verified in game: the browser lists, searches, and prints detail; links render and click through; right-click copies and shift-click dumps.
