Read vs interpret
Read (this repo): extract facts, metadata, transcripts, regions, and timelines with provenance — no generative LLM required.
Interpret (out of scope): summarize, classify, or answer open questions — belongs in the agent or an optional remote provider adapter.

Primary tool: read_path
