IntelliSense

What it is for

The IntelliSense JSON file is a compact index of every utility class your config generates. It is the file the EmilyUI VS Code extension reads to provide autocomplete suggestions, hover docs, and unknown-class warnings in your templates.

It mirrors the manifest but excludes full CSS declaration maps to keep the file small. Regenerate it after any config change by running npx emily-css build or npx emily-css manifest.

    "enabled": true,

Shape (schema v2)

Each entry includes per-class metadata so tooling can surface the right information without reading the generated CSS directly.
