Structured data serialization format and reference implementation.

Only detectable signal is a dev.to search page (rank 14) with zero presence on GitHub, Hacker News, or social platforms. For a repository, the absence of native GitHub traction strongly suggests limited organic developer adoption.

Why now: Indexed by dev.to search; no release, event, or viral discussion detected.

• Single external source: dev.to rank 14 out of 45 items; no GitHub, HN, X, Reddit, or ProductHunt signals.
• Only citation is a dev.to search results page, not a specific article or discussion thread.
• Repository entity shows no native GitHub trending signal despite GitHub having 100 tracked items in the pool.

Considerations: Dev.to mentions often reflect author self-promotion; without GitHub velocity, HN discussion, or package manager downloads, this is likely a single-author project with no production traction.

EMERGING SIGNAL · Ignore: Monitor for GitHub or HN emergence over the next two weeks; do not allocate resources now.
