Research direction

Start by reading the linked OpenAI Cookbook example and commit, then inspect the cl100k_base implementation in tiktoken. Confirm how im_start and im_end are represented and determine what tests or encoding checks are needed; done means cl100k_base handles both tokens consistently with the referenced behavior.
