Description
- Nodemon hotreloads the JS changes.
- The Asciidoctor summary files are not watched by Nodemon and the build is not triggered every time a
.adocfile changes. The Asciidoctor build script runs just once whennpm test runis executed. - Maybe use something like Chokidar to watch over the
summarydirectory and run the build script every time a.adocfile changes.

Research direction
Inspect the existing Nodemon configuration and the build script invoked by npm test run, then compare how changes under the summary directory are handled. Check whether .adoc changes trigger the Asciidoctor build; done means the watcher rebuilds when those files change while preserving existing JavaScript hot reload behavior.
