How does the skill handle new kanji detected in the project?

The skill identifies characters missing from the master list and guides the user through assigning a specific ID that includes on'yomi, kun'yomi, and an English gloss.

Can this skill rebuild the entire dictionary front-end?

Yes, it provides commands to rebuild individual kanji JSON data, update HTML index pages, and trigger a full flat-site build.

What are the rules for romaji conversion within the index?

It follows specific formatting such as using 'ou' for long vowels, excluding okurigana from kun'yomi, and using ASCII-safe file names for portability.

How are entries sorted on the generated index pages?

Entries are automatically organized by their hiragana reading order (gojuon), ensuring a natural and consistent navigation experience for Japanese learners.

Why does the index use invisible links in headwords?

This design choice preserves a clean visual appearance while allowing users to discover the kanji lookup feature via tooltips without visual clutter.
