Idea	Status	Tags	Summary	Katz
wildcard_references	done		Qualified path + idea-pattern references match multiple ideas across files. Surface forms: bracket `[…]` and wikilink `[[…]]` ( same `WildcardReference` target ). Path is a quoted string that may include shell-style globs ( ``, ``, `?` ) and `@/` import-root aliases ( [configuration_import_root_alias] ). Relative globs resolve against the defining document directory; `.` / `..` segments are collapsed before matching. Idea pattern is an unquoted `WILDCARD_NAME` that must contain at least one `` or `?` Exact quoted-path plus idea stays ["./syntax.rq".reference_qualified]. Matching uses anchored globs ( not full JS regex ): path `` is one segment, `` crosses segments; idea `` / `?` match within the idea name. Zero matches produce a warning diagnostic. One match also produces a warning — a wildcard is for many ideas; use a concrete ["./syntax.rq".reference_qualified] when only one idea matches ( ["../core_analysis/check.rq".check_wildcard_one] ). Path segment `/*/` must not be lexed as an empty block comment — see ["./syntax.rq".comments]. Lexer note: `ID` is a prefix of many wildcard names ( `import_` vs `import_` ); the token builder sets `ID.LONGER_ALT = WILDCARD_NAME` so `import_` is one token. Body prose `` tokens are accepted via `WILDCARD_NAME` in PlainText so ordinary `*` characters still parse. Without that longer-alt, a live wildcard inside a block body can fail Idea recovery and leave later top-level ideas unindexed ( soft mtime sync will not rebuild until the `.rq` file changes ). Navigation does not emit N LocationLinks. A document-link click opens `reqlan.openWildcardReference` with `{ pathPattern, ideaPattern, fromUri }` ( see [wildcard_references_webview] ). Go-to-definition does not open that panel. Indexing fans out per ["../indexer/indexer.rq".wildcard_reference_edges] ( owned under ["../indexer/indexer.rq".index] ): native extract writes one `wildcard_reference` edge per catalog match; empty catalog / zero matches → one unresolved edge of that kind labeled with the pattern text. ["../core_analysis/check.rq".check] handles 0 - match and 1 - match fan-out through ["../core_analysis/check.rq".check_wildcard_zero] and ["../core_analysis/check.rq".check_wildcard_one] ( ["../core_analysis/check.rq".check_wildcard_sparse] ). Ideas Summary graph toggles those edges via ["../extension/workspace-summary/ideas_summary/graphical_graph.rq".wildcard_refs_toggle]. The server can answer `reqlan/wildcardReferenceAt`. Go-to-definition does not call it.
