npx legal-md --debug examples/example.md examples/debug-output.md

# Export metadata
npx legal-md --export-yaml examples/example.md

# Using external metadata files

## Creating Your Own Examples

1. Start with YAML front matter (optional)
2. Use header notation: `l.`, `ll.`, `lll.`, etc.
3. Add optional clauses with `[clause]{condition}`
4. Include imports with `@import filename.md`
5. Reference other sections with `{{reference}}`
