 Each `llms-full.txt` entry states its scanner risk label; a `danger` listing keeps its
 entry but its body is replaced by a warning. An embedded body is fenced with more
 backticks than its longest backtick run, so it cannot close its own block.
+Name, author, category and description are flattened to one line with a leading `#` or `>`
