docs/ and README.md carry 85 fenced blocks. Every one was checked by hand exactly once, when it was written, which is not a standard that survives a changing interpreter -- and four were already wrong: two transcripts showing a leading space PRINT does not emit, akbasic_TextSink in README.md missing the two members it had grown hours earlier, and FILTER's refusal quoted with wording the code does not use. tests/docs_examples.sh reads a fence-tag vocabulary and runs what it finds. BASIC programs and transcripts run and are byte-compared against an `output` block; C snippets compile with -fsyntax-only against the real include path, which CMake writes out because it is transitive through akerror, akstdlib and akgl; shell blocks run in a sandbox. Anything that would reconfigure the build tree, hit the network or re-enter the suite is tagged norun with the reason in MAINTENANCE.md, and the two cmake blocks stay hand-maintained by decision. An untagged block is a failure rather than a default, and the pass line reports what it executed by kind. Both exist because the way a harness like this dies is by quietly matching nothing and passing -- which it duly did on the first CTest run, where a generator expression evaluating to nothing still contributed an empty argument that the script read as a filename. The count is what caught it. The excerpt check earns its own mention: a block tagged `c excerpt=include/akbasic/sink.h` must still appear in that header, comments and whitespace ignored. Compiling it would only redefine the type, so a compile check could not have found the stale struct, and did not. Registered as the CTest case docs_examples in both configurations. Fixing the four wrong examples turned up two interpreter defects, fixed in the previous commit and recorded in TODO.md section 8. MAINTENANCE.md is new: the fence-tag reference, what to do when the case fails, and the conventions that until now only existed inside source comments -- the three test lists and how two of them invert "passed", the sorted verb table, that a golden file is never edited to suit this interpreter, and that a fix gets mutation-checked with a file copy rather than git checkout.

wanted the effect — assign the result somewhere to throw it away.
