Details
How this should help in practice
These sections explain the job in plain language and set expectations for what the tool should do well.
Why this is better than a generic word counter
Markdown content usually needs more than one number. Headings, links, and list density often matter just as much as total words when you are checking docs, README sections, or content drafts.
