do we need completion? probably not. I think this just complicates the extension, as it is not meant to be used for writing .endf but just inspecting/reading them.

All notable changes to this extension will be documented in this file.

## Unreleased

- Added manual-backed ENDF reference hovers for `NSUB`, `NLIB`, `INT`, `LR`, and
common record types such as `TAB1`, `CONT`, and `SEND`.
- Expanded `MF` and `MT` descriptions through a shared curated reference module.
- Added lightweight completions for common ENDF lookup codes.
- Added Node-based unit tests for reference lookup behavior and ENDF number
parsing.

## 0.0.2

- Updated the extension icon package asset to preserve transparent rounded corners.

`MT=52-82` are also explained

`SEND`, `FEND`, `MEND`, and `TEND` are explained in hovers

## Reference Completions

The extension provides lightweight completions for common ENDF manual lookup
codes. In ENDF documents, type a supported key followed by `=` or a space to see
curated suggestions:

- `MF=` for file-type numbers
- `MT=` for common reaction type numbers and important ranges
- `NSUB=` for sublibrary numbers
- `NLIB=` for library identifiers
- `INT=` for interpolation laws
- `LR=` for residual breakup flags

Payload field meanings are often record-specific, so the hover reports the
reliable fixed-field role unless a standard `MF`/`MT` code description applies.
