 - cmark allocates via C malloc, not the arena. HTML output leaks until process exit.
 - CSS/JS cache busting uses manual `?v=N` query params instead of content hashing.
-- The `shrug` emoji has a backslash that may not display correctly.
 - `json.Value` params require 64-byte aligned arena (workaround for `dynamic_arena_allocator_proc` ignoring per-allocation alignment).
 - Tree-sitter grammar/query paths hardcoded in `tree_sitter.odin` (Nix store hashes, Helix-version-dependent).
 - `TSQueryCapture` needs explicit `_padding: u32` field for C ABI compatibility (40-byte sizeof).
