+## What's Changed
+* **MCP — API reference links in docs:** Infragistics API documentation links embedded in the docs served by the MCP server are now rewritten to deterministic `get_api_reference` tool references (e.g. `mcp:get_api_reference?platform=webcomponents&component=IgcCheckboxComponent&member=checked`). AI assistants reading the docs resolve API links through the in-tool API lookup instead of fetching external HTML pages.
+* **MCP `get_api_reference` — member-level lookup:** The `get_api_reference` tool now accepts an optional `member` parameter to return a single property, method, or event entry instead of the full component (for example `member="checked"`). It takes precedence over `section`, tolerates `Component#member` fragment-style references, reports the canonical member-name casing in the response, and returns a clear error when the requested member does not exist on the component.

 **Inject** — Replaces `<code-view>` HTML tags with actual component source code from the platform's examples repository. Resolves samples via the `github-src` attribute. Includes a post-inject data trimming step that keeps only 3 representative items from large data arrays and replaces the rest with `// ... N more items`, preventing individual files from exceeding 300KB.
 
-**Compress** — Sends each doc through an LLM with a platform-specific system prompt to reduce size by ~50% while preserving structure, code examples, and API references. Each platform's prompt specifies the correct component prefix (`Igx`/`Igr`/`Igc`/`Igb`), naming conventions, code block languages, and comment syntax. Counts tokens per file via `js-tiktoken` and writes `_compression_log.csv` and `_compression_stats.json` alongside output. When run with `--manifest`, only processes files listed as changed or added.
+**Rewrite API Links** — Deterministically replaces `https://www.infragistics.com/.../classes/...html` URLs with `mcp:get_api_reference?platform=<p>&component=<C>[&member=<m>]` references that the MCP server resolves at call time. Handles all four URL shapes per platform (bare `/docs/` and `/api/docs/` with package prefixes, Blazor FQN `.html`, Web Components `dock-manager` subpath) and decodes docfx synthetic anchors (e.g. `#IgniteUI_Blazor_Controls_IgbGrid_Sort` → `member=Sort`). Recovers PascalCase canonical names from lowercased URL segments via the `ApiDocLoader` index. Sass/theming mixin URLs, MDN, and other non-API links pass through untouched. Writes `_rewrite_log.csv` listing any unknown-component skips. See `docs/url_rewrite_plan.md`.

+### rewrite-api-links.ts

+Deterministically rewrites `infragistics.com` API documentation URLs in the prepared docs into `mcp:get_api_reference?...` references resolvable by the MCP server's `get_api_reference` tool. One shared script handles all four platforms; only the URL regex differs per platform. Loads the platform's `ApiDocLoader` once to build a `lowercase → canonical` component-name index, so lowercased URL segments like `igxgridcomponent` come back as `IgxGridComponent`. Fragments are passed through as `&member=<name>` (Blazor docfx synthetic anchors are decoded to bare member names — `#IgniteUI_Blazor_Controls_IgbGrid_Sort` → `member=Sort`). Sass/theming mixin URLs, MDN, and other non-API links pass through untouched. Doc-page URLs under `/components/...` are also skipped — only `/classes/`, `/interfaces/`, and `/enums/` paths are matched.

+| `--dry-run` | Count and print rewrites without writing files | off |
+
+**Output:** rewrites files in place. Writes `_rewrite_log.csv` listing any URLs that were skipped because their component segment could not be resolved against the API index (columns: `file,url,reason`). Prints a summary line: `rewrote <N> links across <K> files; <M> skipped (unknown component)`.

Each script has a platform-specific system prompt (Angular uses `Igx` prefix, React uses `Igr`, WebComponents uses `Igc` + `Component` suffix, Blazor uses `Igb`). All compress scripts count tokens per file using `js-tiktoken` (o200k_base encoding). Requires `OPENAI_API_KEY` in `.env`.

+#### get_api_reference — member-targeted lookup
+
+`get_api_reference` accepts an optional `member` parameter that returns just one property, method, or event line from the API entry instead of the full document. This is what the `rewrite-api-urls` step generates refs for — `mcp:get_api_reference?platform=webcomponents&component=IgcCheckboxComponent&member=checked` resolves to a ~130-character response instead of the ~1.2 KB full entry.
+
+| Parameter | Required | Description |
+|-----------|----------|-------------|
+| `platform` | Yes | `angular`, `react`, `webcomponents`, or `blazor` |
+| `component` | Yes | Exact component or class name (case-insensitive). Also accepts `Name#member` shorthand — the `#member` suffix is split off into the `member` field when `member` is not already supplied. |
+| `section` | No | `properties`, `methods`, `events`, or `all` (default). Ignored when `member` is set. |
+| `member` | No | Property/method/event name (e.g. `checked`, `click`, `igcChange`). Returns one line. Returns `isError` if the member is not found. |
+
+**Examples:**
+
+```json
+// Full entry
+{ "platform": "webcomponents", "component": "IgcCheckboxComponent" }
+
+// One section only
+{ "platform": "angular", "component": "IgxGridComponent", "section": "events" }
+
+// One member only
+{ "platform": "webcomponents", "component": "IgcCheckboxComponent", "member": "checked" }
+
+// Shorthand — same effect as the previous example
+{ "platform": "webcomponents", "component": "IgcCheckboxComponent#checked" }
