Research direction

Start by locating the existing schema-fetching and diff-function entry points in the Go repository. Define the user-facing schema representation around the two stated requirements: it must be directly fetchable and accepted by the differ. Done means one ergonomic mapping supports both operations, with its behavior documented and tested.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

  1. This should be directly fetchable
  2. This should be inputtable into the diff function

This suggests that we just need one mapping of ergnomic user-facing schema to something the differ can leverage
