# Markdown Pipe Table Extraction

Build-time release reference. Runtime readiness, deployment, payment settlement and external indexing are not evaluated here. Prices are proposed; this file cannot authorize execution or payment.

Extract top-level pipe tables from supplied Markdown into bounded cell arrays with exact source offsets, alignment and width findings. Uses an explicit line-based subset: table starts at document start or after a blank line, three-hyphen delimiters, fences excluded, inline markup preserved.

Release: 0.29.0. Built: 2026-10-06T15:38:00Z.

## Choose for
- Extract structured rows and cell provenance from Markdown reports
- Check pipe table widths without silently dropping or padding cells

## Outside this profile
- Full CommonMark or GFM parsing, nested containers, HTML tables or inline rendering
- Automatic schema inference, typed values or ambiguous one-hyphen delimiters

Proposed nominal USD 0.005 per successful call; payer fees excluded. No verified runtime availability.
