-
-## ⚠️ MANDATORY: GitHub agent disclosure
-
-**Always required. No exceptions.**
-
-Whenever you perform **any** GitHub action on behalf of the user, you **must** disclose that an AI agent (Cursor) wrote the content and is acting on the user's behalf — **not the user personally**. Do this **before** submitting; never post first and add the disclosure later.
-
-Applies to **all** GitHub interactions, including:
-
-- Pull requests (titles, descriptions, and reviews)
-- PR comments and inline review comments
-- Issues (new issues, comments, and updates)
-- Any other post or reply on GitHub
-
-**How to disclose:** Put it prominently at the **top** of every PR description, review body, comment, or issue. Use wording like:
-
-
-Inline review comments must include a short disclosure too (e.g. `> Generated by Cursor acting on the user's behalf, not the user personally.`).
-
-**Never** submit a GitHub action without this disclosure.
-
----
-
-Always run the spellcheck before raising a PR:
-
-```bash
-bash scripts/spelling.sh
-```
-
-This is also included in the full CI pipeline via `make local test`.
-
-## Cursor Cloud specific instructions
-
-### Overview
-
-**yq** is a Go CLI for querying and transforming YAML, JSON, XML, INI, and other structured formats. There are no long-running services — development is build-and-test against a local `./yq` binary.
-
-### Prerequisites
-
-- **Go ≥ 1.25** (see `go.mod`)
-- **Bash** (acceptance tests)
-- **Docker/Podman** is optional; use `make local <target>` to run natively when containers are unavailable
-
-### PATH
-
-After `scripts/devtools.sh`, add Go tool binaries to PATH:
-
-```bash
-export PATH="$HOME/go/bin:$PATH"
-```
-
-`golangci-lint` and `typos` install to `$HOME/go/bin`; `gosec` installs to `./bin/gosec` in the repo root.
-
-### Common commands (local, no Docker)
-
-| Task | Command |
-|------|---------|
-| Install dev tools | `bash scripts/devtools.sh` |
-| Vendor dependencies | `make local vendor` |
-| Build binary | `go build -o yq .` or `make local build` |
-| Format | `make local format` |
-| Lint | `make local check` |
-| Unit tests | `make local test` or `bash scripts/test.sh` |
-| Acceptance (E2E) | `bash scripts/acceptance.sh` (requires `./yq` built first) |
-
-`make local build` runs the full CI chain (format → spelling → gosec → lint → unit tests → build → acceptance). For a faster loop, build with `go build -o yq .` and run `bash scripts/acceptance.sh`.
-
-### Caveats
-
-- **`make` without `local`** tries Docker/Podman (`Dockerfile.dev`). In Cloud Agent VMs without Docker, always prefix with `make local`.
-- **Spelling step** uses `typos` (installed by `scripts/devtools.sh`).
-- **`make local test` / `scripts/check.sh`** require `golangci-lint` on PATH (`devtools.sh`).
-
----
-
-# General rules
-✅ **DO:**
-- You can use ./yq with the `--debug-node-info` flag to get a deeper understanding of the ast.
-- run ./scripts/format.sh to format the code; then ./scripts/check.sh lint and finally ./scripts/spelling.sh to check spelling.
-- Add comprehensive tests to cover the changes
-- Run test suite to ensure there is no regression
-- Use UK english spelling
-- **Follow the mandatory GitHub agent disclosure rule above** on every GitHub action — no exceptions
-
-❌ **DON'T:**
-- Git add or commit
-- Add comments to functions that are self-explanatory
-- **Post to GitHub without the mandatory agent disclosure** (PRs, reviews, comments, issues, or any other GitHub interaction)

-# Adding a New Encoder/Decoder
-
-This guide explains how to add support for a new format (encoder/decoder) to yq without modifying `candidate_node.go`.
-
-## Overview
-
-The encoder/decoder architecture in yq is based on two main interfaces:
-
-- **Encoder**: Converts a `CandidateNode` to output in a specific format
-- **Decoder**: Reads input in a specific format and creates a `CandidateNode`
-
-Each format is registered in `pkg/yqlib/format.go` and made available through factory functions.
-
-## Architecture
-
-### Key Files
-
-- `pkg/yqlib/encoder.go` - Defines the `Encoder` interface
-- `pkg/yqlib/decoder.go` - Defines the `Decoder` interface
-- `pkg/yqlib/format.go` - Format registry and factory functions
-- `pkg/yqlib/operator_encoder_decoder.go` - Encode/decode operators
-- `pkg/yqlib/encoder_*.go` - Encoder implementations
-- `pkg/yqlib/decoder_*.go` - Decoder implementations
-
-### Interfaces
-
-**Encoder Interface:**
-```go
-type Encoder interface {
-    Encode(writer io.Writer, node *CandidateNode) error
-    PrintDocumentSeparator(writer io.Writer) error
-    PrintLeadingContent(writer io.Writer, content string) error
-    CanHandleAliases() bool
-}
-```
-
-**Decoder Interface:**
-```go
-type Decoder interface {
-    Init(reader io.Reader) error
-    Decode() (*CandidateNode, error)
-}
-```
-
-## Step-by-Step: Adding a New Encoder/Decoder
-
-### Step 1: Create the Encoder File
-
-Create `pkg/yqlib/encoder_<format>.go` implementing the `Encoder` interface:
-- `Encode()` - Convert a `CandidateNode` to your format and write to the output writer
-- `PrintDocumentSeparator()` - Handle document separators if your format requires them
-- `PrintLeadingContent()` - Handle leading content/comments if supported
-- `CanHandleAliases()` - Return whether your format supports YAML aliases
-
-See `encoder_json.go` or `encoder_base64.go` for examples.
-
-### Step 2: Create the Decoder File
-
-Create `pkg/yqlib/decoder_<format>.go` implementing the `Decoder` interface:
-- `Init()` - Initialize the decoder with the input reader and set up any needed state
-- `Decode()` - Decode one document from the input and return a `CandidateNode`, or `io.EOF` when finished
-
-See `decoder_json.go` or `decoder_base64.go` for examples.
-
-### Step 3: Create Tests (Mandatory)
-
-Create a test file `pkg/yqlib/<format>_test.go` using the `formatScenario` pattern:
-- Define test scenarios as `formatScenario` structs with fields: `description`, `input`, `expected`, `scenarioType`
-- `scenarioType` can be `"decode"` (test decoding to YAML) or `"roundtrip"` (encode/decode preservation)
-- Create a helper function `test<Format>Scenario()` that switches on `scenarioType`
-- Create main test function `Test<Format>FormatScenarios()` that iterates over scenarios
-- The main test function should use `documentScenarios` to ensure testcase documentation is generated.
-
-Test coverage must include:
-- Basic data types (scalars, arrays, objects/maps)
-- Nested structures
-- Edge cases (empty inputs, special characters, escape sequences)
-- Format-specific features or syntax
-- Round-trip tests: decode → encode → decode should preserve data
-
-See `hcl_test.go` for a complete example.
-
-### Step 4: Register the Format in format.go
-
-Edit `pkg/yqlib/format.go`:
-
-1. Add a new format variable:
-   - `"<format>"` is the formal name (e.g., "json", "yaml")
-   - `[]string{...}` contains short aliases (can be empty)
-   - The first function creates an encoder (can be nil for encode-only formats)
-   - The second function creates a decoder (can be nil for decode-only formats)
-
-2. Add the format to the `Formats` slice in the same file
-
-See existing formats in `format.go` for the exact structure.
-
-### Step 5: Handle Encoder Configuration (if needed)
-
-If your format has preferences/configuration options:
-
-1. Create a preferences struct with your configuration fields
-2. Update the encoder to accept preferences in its factory function
-3. Update `format.go` to pass the configured preferences
-4. Update `operator_encoder_decoder.go` if special indent handling is needed (see existing formats like JSON and YAML for the pattern)
-
-This pattern is optional and only needed if your format has user-configurable options.
-
-## Build Tags
-
-Use build tags to allow optional compilation of formats:
-- Add `//go:build !yq_no<format>` at the top of your encoder and decoder files
-- Create a no-build version in `pkg/yqlib/no_<format>.go` that returns nil for encoder/decoder factories
-
-This allows users to compile yq without certain formats using: `go build -tags yq_no<format>`
-
-## Working with CandidateNode
-
-The `CandidateNode` struct represents a YAML node with:
-- `Kind`: The node type (ScalarNode, SequenceNode, MappingNode)
-- `Tag`: The YAML tag (e.g., "!!str", "!!int", "!!map")
-- `Value`: The scalar value (for ScalarNode only)
-- `Content`: Child nodes (for SequenceNode and MappingNode)
-
-Key methods:
-- `node.guessTagFromCustomType()` - Infer the tag from Go type
-- `node.AsList()` - Convert to a list for processing
-- `node.CreateReplacement()` - Create a new replacement node
-- `NewCandidate()` - Create a new CandidateNode
-
-## Key Points
-
-✅ **DO:**
-- Implement only the `Encoder` and `Decoder` interfaces
-- Register your format in `format.go` only
-- Keep format-specific logic in your encoder/decoder files
-- Use the candidate_node style attribute to store style information for round-trip. Ask if this needs to be updated with new styles.
-- Use build tags for optional compilation
-- Add comprehensive tests
-- Run the specific encoder/decoder test (e.g. <format>_test.go) whenever you make ay changes to the encoder_<format> or decoder_<format>
-- Handle errors gracefully
-- Add the no build directive, like the xml encoder and decoder, that enables a minimal yq builds. e.g.  `//go:build !yq_<format>`. Be sure to also update the build_small-yq.sh and build-tinygo-yq.sh to not include the new format.
-
-❌ **DON'T:**
-- Modify `candidate_node.go` to add format-specific logic
-- Add format-specific fields to `CandidateNode`
-- Create special cases in core navigation or evaluation logic
-- Bypass the encoder/decoder interfaces
-- Use candidate_node tag attribute for anything other than indicate the data type
-
-## Examples
-
-Refer to existing format implementations for patterns:
-
-- **Simple encoder/decoder**: `encoder_json.go`, `decoder_json.go`
-- **Complex with preferences**: `encoder_yaml.go`, `decoder_yaml.go`
-- **Encoder-only**: `encoder_sh.go` (ShFormat has nil decoder)
-- **String-only operations**: `encoder_base64.go`, `decoder_base64.go`
-
-## Testing Your Implementation (Mandatory)
-
-Tests must be implemented in `<format>_test.go` following the `formatScenario` pattern:
-
-1. **Create test scenarios** using the `formatScenario` struct with fields:
-   - `description`: Brief description of what's being tested
-   - `input`: Sample input in your format
-   - `expected`: Expected output (typically in YAML for decode tests)
-   - `scenarioType`: Either `"decode"` or `"roundtrip"`
-
-2. **Test coverage must include:**
-   - Basic data types (scalars, arrays, objects/maps)
-   - Nested structures
-   - Edge cases (empty inputs, special characters, escape sequences)
-   - Format-specific features or syntax
-   - Round-trip tests: decode → encode → decode should preserve data
-
-3. **Test function pattern:**
-   - `test<Format>Scenario()`: Helper function that switches on `scenarioType`
-   - `Test<Format>FormatScenarios()`: Main test function that iterates over scenarios
-
-4. **Example from existing formats:**
-   - See `hcl_test.go` for a complete example
-   - See `yaml_test.go` for YAML-specific patterns
-   - See `json_test.go` for more complex scenarios
-
-## Common Patterns
-
-### Format with Indentation
-Use preferences to control output formatting:
-```go
-type <format>Preferences struct {
-    Indent int
-}
-
-func (prefs *<format>Preferences) Copy() <format>Preferences {
-    return *prefs
-}
-```
-
-### Multiple Documents
-Decoders should support reading multiple documents:
-```go
-func (dec *<format>Decoder) Decode() (*CandidateNode, error) {
-    if dec.finished {
-        return nil, io.EOF
-    }
-    // ... decode next document ...
-    if noMoreDocuments {
-        dec.finished = true
-    }
-    return candidate, nil
-}
-```

-# Adding a New Operator
-
-This guide explains how to add a new operator to yq. Operators are the core of yq's expression language and process `CandidateNode` objects without requiring modifications to `candidate_node.go` itself.
-
-## Overview
-
-Operators transform data by implementing a handler function that processes a `Context` containing `CandidateNode` objects. Each operator is:
-
-1. Defined as an `operationType` in `operation.go`
-2. Registered in the lexer in `lexer_participle.go`
-3. Implemented in its own `operator_<type>.go` file
-4. Tested in `operator_<type>_test.go`
-5. Documented in `pkg/yqlib/doc/operators/headers/<type>.md`
-
-## Architecture
-
-### Key Files
-
-- `pkg/yqlib/operation.go` - Defines `operationType` and operator registry
-- `pkg/yqlib/lexer_participle.go` - Registers operators with their syntax patterns
-- `pkg/yqlib/operator_<type>.go` - Operator implementation
-- `pkg/yqlib/operator_<type>_test.go` - Operator tests using `expressionScenario`
-- `pkg/yqlib/doc/operators/headers/<type>.md` - Documentation header
-
-### Core Types
-
-**operationType:**
-```go
-type operationType struct {
-    Type                 string          // Unique operator name (e.g., "REVERSE")
-    NumArgs              uint            // Number of arguments (0 for no args)
-    Precedence           uint            // Operator precedence (higher = higher precedence)
-    Handler              operatorHandler // The function that executes the operator
-    CheckForPostTraverse bool            // Whether to apply post-traversal logic
-    ToString             func(*Operation) string // Custom string representation
-}
-```
-
-**operatorHandler signature:**
-```go
-type operatorHandler func(*dataTreeNavigator, Context, *ExpressionNode) (Context, error)
-```
-
-**expressionScenario for tests:**
-```go
-type expressionScenario struct {
-    description      string
-    subdescription   string
-    document         string
-    expression       string
-    expected         []string
-    skipDoc          bool
-    expectedError    string
-}
-```
-
-## Step-by-Step: Adding a New Operator
-
-### Step 1: Create the Operator Implementation File
-
-Create `pkg/yqlib/operator_<type>.go` implementing the operator handler function:
-- Implement the `operatorHandler` function signature
-- Process nodes from `context.MatchingNodes`
-- Return a new `Context` with results using `context.ChildContext()`
-- Use `candidate.CreateReplacement()` or `candidate.CreateReplacementWithComments()` to create new nodes
-- Handle errors gracefully with meaningful error messages
-
-See `operator_reverse.go` or `operator_keys.go` for examples.
-
-### Step 2: Register the Operator in operation.go
-
-Add the operator type definition to `pkg/yqlib/operation.go`:
-
-```go
-var <type>OpType = &operationType{
-    Type:       "<TYPE>",          // All caps, matches pattern in lexer
-    NumArgs:    0,                 // 0 for no args, 1+ for args
-    Precedence: 50,                // Typical range: 40-55
-    Handler:    <type>Operator,    // Reference to handler function
-}
-```
-
-**Precedence guidelines:**
-- 10-20: Logical operators (OR, AND, UNION)
-- 30: Pipe operator
-- 40: Assignment and comparison operators
-- 42: Arithmetic operators (ADD, SUBTRACT, MULTIPLY, DIVIDE)
-- 50-52: Most other operators
-- 55: High precedence (e.g., GET_VARIABLE)
-
-**Optional fields:**
-- `CheckForPostTraverse: true` - If your operator can have another directly after it without the pipe character. Most of the time this is false.
-- `ToString: customToString` - Custom string representation (rarely needed)
-
-### Step 3: Register the Operator in lexer_participle.go
-
-Edit `pkg/yqlib/lexer_participle.go` to add the operator to the lexer rules:
-- Use `simpleOp()` for simple keyword patterns
-- Use object syntax for regex patterns or complex syntax
-- Support optional characters with `_?` and aliases with `|`
-
-See existing operators in `lexer_participle.go` for pattern examples.
-
-### Step 4: Create Tests (Mandatory)
-
-Create `pkg/yqlib/operator_<type>_test.go` using the `expressionScenario` pattern:
-- Define test scenarios with `description`, `document`, `expression`, and `expected` fields
-- `expected` is a slice of strings showing output format: `"D<doc>, P[<path>], (<tag>)::<value>\n"`
-- Set `skipDoc: true` for edge cases you don't want in generated documentation
-- Include `subdescription` for longer test names
-- Set `expectedError` if testing error cases
-- Create main test function that iterates over scenarios
-- The main test function should use `documentScenarios` to ensure testcase documentation is generated.
-
-Test coverage must include:
-- Basic data types and nested structures
-- Edge cases (empty inputs, special characters, type errors)
-- Multiple outputs if applicable
-- Format-specific features
-
-See `operator_reverse_test.go` for a simple example and `operator_keys_test.go` for complex cases.
-
-### Step 5: Create Documentation Header
-
-Create `pkg/yqlib/doc/operators/headers/<type>.md`:
-- Use the exact operator name as the title
-- Include a concise 1-2 sentence summary
-- Add additional context or examples if the operator is complex
-
-See existing headers in `doc/operators/headers/` for examples.
-
-## Working with Context and CandidateNode
-
-### Context Management
-- `context.ChildContext(results)` - Create child context with results
-- `context.GetVariable("varName")` - Get variables stored in context
-- `context.SetVariable("varName", value)` - Set variables in context
-
-### CandidateNode Operations
-- `candidate.CreateReplacement(ScalarNode, "!!str", stringValue)` - Create a replacement node
-- `candidate.CreateReplacementWithComments(SequenceNode, "!!seq", candidate.Style)` - With style preserved
-- `candidate.Kind` - The node type (ScalarNode, SequenceNode, MappingNode)
-- `candidate.Tag` - The YAML tag (!!str, !!int, etc.)
-- `candidate.Value` - The scalar value (for ScalarNode only)
-- `candidate.Content` - Child nodes (for SequenceNode and MappingNode)
-- `candidate.guessTagFromCustomType()` - Infer the tag from Go type
-- `candidate.AsList()` - Convert to a list representation
-
-## Key Points
-
-✅ **DO:**
-- Implement the operator handler with the correct signature
-- Register in `operation.go` with appropriate precedence
-- Add the lexer pattern in `lexer_participle.go`
-- Write comprehensive tests covering normal and edge cases
-- Create a documentation header in `doc/operators/headers/`
-- Use `Context.ChildContext()` for proper context threading
-- Handle all node types gracefully
-- Return meaningful error messages
-
-❌ **DON'T:**
-- Modify `candidate_node.go` (operators shouldn't need this)
-- Modify core navigation or evaluation logic
-- Bypass the handler function pattern
-- Add format-specific or operator-specific fields to `CandidateNode`
-- Skip tests or documentation
-
-## Examples
-
-Refer to existing operator implementations for patterns:
-
-- **No-argument operator**: `operator_reverse.go` - Processes arrays/sequences
-- **Single-argument operator**: `operator_map.go` - Takes an expression argument
-- **Complex multi-output**: `operator_keys.go` - Produces multiple results
-- **With preferences**: `operator_to_number.go` - Configuration options
-- **Error handling**: `operator_error.go` - Control flow with errors
-- **String operations**: `operator_strings.go` - Multiple related operators
-
-## Testing Patterns
-
-Refer to existing test files for specific patterns:
-- Basic expression tests in `operator_reverse_test.go`
-- Multi-output tests in `operator_keys_test.go`
-- Error handling tests in `operator_error_test.go`
-- Tests with `skipDoc` flag to exclude from generated documentation
-
-## Common Patterns
-
-Refer to existing operator implementations for these patterns:
-- Simple transformation: see `operator_reverse.go`
-- Type checking: see `operator_error.go`
-- Working with arguments: see `operator_map.go`
-- Post-traversal operators: see `operator_with.go`

-# Before you begin 
-Not all new PRs will be merged in 
-
-It's recommended to check with the owner first (e.g. raise an issue) to discuss a new feature before developing, to ensure your hard efforts don't go to waste.
-
-PRs to fix bugs and issues are almost always welcome :pray: please ensure you write tests as well.
-
-The following types of PRs will _not_ be accepted:
-- **Significant refactors** take a lot of time to understand and can have all sorts of unintended side effects. If you think there's a better way to do things (that requires significant changes) raise an issue for discussion first :)
-- **Release pipeline PRs** are a security risk - it's too easy for a serious vulnerability to sneak in (either intended or not). If there is a new cool way of releasing things, raise an issue for discussion first - it will need to be gone over with a fine tooth comb.
-- **Version bumps** are handled by dependabot, the bot will auto-raise PRs and they will be regularly merged in. 
-- **New release platforms** At this stage, yq is not going to maintain any other release platforms other than GitHub and Docker - that said, I'm more than happy to put in other community maintained methods in the README for visibility :heart:
-
-
-# Development
-
-## Initial Setup
-
-1. Install [Golang](https://golang.org/) (version 1.24.0 or later)
-2. Run `scripts/devtools.sh` to install required development tools:
-   - golangci-lint for code linting
-   - gosec for security analysis
-3. Run `make [local] vendor` to install vendor dependencies
-4. Run `make [local] test` to ensure you can run the existing tests
-
-## Development Workflow
-
-1. **Write unit tests first** - Changes will not be accepted without corresponding unit tests (see Testing section below)
-2. **Make your code changes**
-3. **Run tests and linting**: `make [local] test` (this runs formatting, linting, security checks, and tests)
-4. **Create your PR** and get kudos! :)
-
-## Make Commands
-
-- Use `make [local] <command>` for local development (runs in Docker container)
-- Use `make <command>` for CI/CD environments
-- Common commands:
-  - `make [local] vendor` - Install dependencies
-  - `make [local] test` - Run all checks and tests
-  - `make [local] build` - Build the yq binary
-  - `make [local] format` - Format code
-  - `make [local] check` - Run linting and security checks
-
-# Code Quality
-
-## Linting and Formatting
-
-The project uses strict linting rules defined in `.golangci.yml`. All code must pass:
-
-- **Code formatting**: gofmt, goimports, gci
-- **Linting**: revive, errorlint, gosec, misspell, and others
-- **Security checks**: gosec security analysis
-- **Spelling checks**: misspell detection
-
-Run `make [local] check` to verify your code meets all quality standards.
-
-## Code Style Guidelines
-
-- Follow standard Go conventions
-- Use meaningful variable names
-- Add comments for public functions and complex logic
-- Keep functions focused and reasonably sized
-- Use the project's existing patterns and conventions
-
-# Testing
-
-## Test Structure
-
-Tests in yq use the `expressionScenario` pattern. Each test scenario includes:
-- `expression`: The yq expression to test
-- `document`: Input YAML/JSON (optional)
-- `expected`: Expected output
-- `skipDoc`: Whether to skip documentation generation
-
-## Writing Tests
-
-1. **Find the appropriate test file** (e.g., `operator_add_test.go` for addition operations)
-2. **Add your test scenario** to the `*OperatorScenarios` slice
-3. **Run the specific test**: `go test -run TestAddOperatorScenarios` (replace with appropriate test name)
-4. **Verify documentation generation** (see Documentation section)
-
-## Test Examples
-
-```go
-var addOperatorScenarios = []expressionScenario{
-    {
-        skipDoc:    true,
-        expression: `"foo" + "bar"`,
-        expected: []string{
-            "D0, P[], (!!str)::foobar\n",
-        },
-    },
-    {
-        document:   "apples: 3",
-        expression: `.apples + 3`,
-        expected: []string{
-            "D0, P[apples], (!!int)::6\n",
-        },
-    },
-}
-```
-
-## Running Tests
-
-- **All tests**: `make [local] test`
-- **Specific test**: `go test -run TestName`
-- **With coverage**: `make [local] cover`
-
-# Documentation
-
-## Documentation Generation
-
-The project uses a documentation system that combines static headers with dynamically generated content from tests.
-
-### How It Works
-
-1. **Static headers** are defined in `pkg/yqlib/doc/operators/headers/*.md`
-2. **Dynamic content** is generated from test scenarios in `*_test.go` files
-3. **Generated docs** are created in `pkg/yqlib/doc/*.md` by concatenating headers with test-generated content
-4. **Documentation is synced** to the gitbook branch for the website
-
-### Updating Operator Documentation
-
-#### For Test-Generated Documentation
-
-Most operator documentation is generated from tests. To update:
-
-1. **Find the test file** (e.g., `operator_add_test.go`)
-2. **Update test scenarios** - each `expressionScenario` with `skipDoc: false` becomes documentation
-3. **Run the test** to regenerate docs:
-   ```bash
-   cd pkg/yqlib
-   go test -run TestAddOperatorScenarios
-   ```
-4. **Verify the generated documentation** in `pkg/yqlib/doc/add.md`
-5. **Create a PR** with your changes
-
-#### For Header-Only Documentation
-
-If documentation exists only in `headers/*.md` files:
-1. **Update the header file directly** (e.g., `pkg/yqlib/doc/operators/headers/add.md`)
-2. **Create a PR** with your changes
-
-### Updating Static Documentation
-
-For documentation not in the master branch:
-
-1. **Check the gitbook branch** for additional pages
-2. **Update the `*.md` files** directly
-3. **Create a PR** to the gitbook branch
-
-### Documentation Best Practices
-
-- **Write clear, concise examples** in test scenarios
-- **Use meaningful variable names** in examples
-- **Include edge cases** and error conditions
-- **Test your documentation changes** by running the specific test
-- **Verify generated output** matches expectations
-
-Note: PRs with small changes (e.g. minor typos) may not be merged (see https://joel.net/how-one-guy-ruined-hacktoberfest2020-drama).
-
-# Troubleshooting
-
-## Common Setup Issues
-
-### Docker/Podman Issues
-- **Problem**: `make` commands fail with Docker errors
-- **Solution**: Ensure Docker or Podman is running and accessible
-- **Alternative**: Use `make local <command>` to run in containers
-
-### Go Version Issues
-- **Problem**: Build fails with Go version errors
-- **Solution**: Ensure you have Go 1.24.0 or later installed
-- **Check**: Run `go version` to verify
-
-### Vendor Dependencies
-- **Problem**: `make vendor` fails or dependencies are outdated
-- **Solution**: 
-  ```bash
-  go mod tidy
-  make [local] vendor
-  ```
-
-### Linting Failures
-- **Problem**: `make check` fails with linting errors
-- **Solution**: 
-  ```bash
-  make [local] format  # Auto-fix formatting
-  # Manually fix remaining linting issues
-  make [local] check   # Verify fixes
-  ```
-
-### Test Failures
-- **Problem**: Tests fail locally but pass in CI
-- **Solution**: 
-  ```bash
-  make [local] test    # Run in Docker container
-  ```
-
-- **Problem**: Tests fail with a VCS error:
-  ```bash
-  error obtaining VCS status: exit status 128
-  Use -buildvcs=false to disable VCS stamping.
-  ```
-- **Solution**:
-  Git security mechanisms prevent Golang from detecting the Git details inside
-  the container; either build with the `local` option, or pass GOFLAGS to
-  disable Golang buildvcs behaviour.
-  ```bash
-  make local test
-  # OR
-  make test GOFLAGS='-buildvcs=true'
-  ```
-
-### Documentation Generation Issues
-- **Problem**: Generated docs don't update after test changes
-- **Solution**: 
-  ```bash
-  cd pkg/yqlib
-  go test -run TestSpecificOperatorScenarios
-  # Check if generated file updated in pkg/yqlib/doc/
-  ```
-

-## Quick Usage Guide
+## V4 released!
+V4 is now officially released, it's quite different from V3 (sorry for the migration), however it is much more similar to ```jq```, using a similar expression syntax and therefore support much more complex functionality! 
 
-### Basic Operations
+If you've been using v3 and want/need to upgrade, checkout the [upgrade guide](https://mikefarah.gitbook.io/yq/v/v4.x/upgrading-from-v3).
 
-**Read a value:**
-```bash
-yq '.a.b[0].c' file.yaml
-```
-
-**Pipe from STDIN:**
-```bash
-yq '.a.b[0].c' < file.yaml
-```
-
-**Update a yaml file in place:**
-```bash
-yq -i '.a.b[0].c = "cool"' file.yaml
-```
-
-**Update using environment variables:**
-```bash
-NAME=mike yq -i '.a.b[0].c = strenv(NAME)' file.yaml
-```
-
-### Advanced Operations
-
-**Merge multiple files:**
-```bash
-# merge two files
-yq -n 'load("file1.yaml") * load("file2.yaml")'
-
-# merge using globs (note: `ea` evaluates all files at once instead of in sequence)
-yq ea '. as $item ireduce ({}; . * $item )' path/to/*.yml
-```
-
-**Multiple updates to a yaml file:**
-```bash
-yq -i '
-  .a.b[0].c = "cool" |
-  .x.y.z = "foobar" |
-  .person.name = strenv(NAME)
-' file.yaml
-```
-
-**Find and update an item in an array:**
-```bash
-# Note: requires input file - add your file at the end
-yq -i '(.[] | select(.name == "foo") | .address) = "12 cat st"' data.yaml
-```
-
-**Convert between formats:**
-```bash
-# Convert JSON to YAML (pretty print)
-yq -Poy sample.json
-
-# Convert YAML to JSON
-yq -o json file.yaml
-
-# Convert XML to YAML
-yq -o yaml file.xml
-```
-
-See [recipes](https://mikefarah.gitbook.io/yq/recipes) for more examples and the [documentation](https://mikefarah.gitbook.io/yq/) for more information.
-
-Take a look at the discussions for [common questions](https://github.com/mikefarah/yq/discussions/categories/q-a), and [cool ideas](https://github.com/mikefarah/yq/discussions/categories/show-and-tell)
+Support for v3 will cease August 2021, until then, critical bug and security fixes will still get applied if required.

 #### Snap notes
 `yq` installs with [_strict confinement_](https://docs.snapcraft.io/snap-confinement/6233) in snap, this means it doesn't have direct access to root files. To read root files you can:
 
 ```
-sudo cat /etc/myfile | yq '.a.path'
+sudo cat /etc/myfile | yq e '.a.path' - 
 ```
 
 And to write to a root file you can either use [sponge](https://linux.die.net/man/1/sponge):
 ```
-sudo cat /etc/myfile | yq '.a.path = "value"' | sudo sponge /etc/myfile
+sudo cat /etc/myfile | yq e '.a.path = "value"' - | sudo sponge /etc/myfile
 ```
 or write to a temporary file:
 ```
-sudo cat /etc/myfile | yq '.a.path = "value"' | sudo tee /etc/myfile.tmp
+sudo cat /etc/myfile | yq e '.a.path = "value"' | sudo tee /etc/myfile.tmp
 sudo mv /etc/myfile.tmp /etc/myfile

-#### Running as root:
-
-`yq`'s container image no longer runs under root (https://github.com/mikefarah/yq/pull/860). If you'd like to install more things in the container image, or you're having permissions issues when attempting to read/write files you'll need to either:

-
-#### Missing timezone data
-By default, the alpine image yq uses does not include timezone data. If you'd like to use the `tz` operator, you'll need to include this data:

-
-USER root
-RUN apk add --no-cache tzdata

-## Troubleshooting
+Simple Example:
 
-### Common Issues
-
-**PowerShell quoting issues:**
-```powershell
-# Use single quotes for expressions
-yq '.a.b[0].c' file.yaml
-
-# Or escape double quotes
-yq ".a.b[0].c = \"value\"" file.yaml
+```bash
+yq e '.a.b | length' f1.yml f2.yml 
 ```

 ## Known Issues / Missing Features
 - `yq` attempts to preserve comment positions and whitespace as much as possible, but it does not handle all scenarios (see https://github.com/go-yaml/yaml/tree/v3 for details)
-- Powershell has its own...[opinions on quoting yq](https://mikefarah.gitbook.io/yq/usage/tips-and-tricks#quotes-in-windows-powershell)
-- "yes", "no" were dropped as boolean values in the yaml 1.2 standard - which is the standard yq assumes.

-# Security Policy
-
-## Reporting a Vulnerability
-
-Please **do not** report security vulnerabilities through public GitHub issues.
-
-Instead, use GitHub's private vulnerability reporting feature:
-👉 https://github.com/mikefarah/yq/security
-
-This allows vulnerabilities to be triaged and addressed confidentially before any public disclosure.
-
-## Scope
-
-### HTTP / TLS / Network vulnerabilities
-
-yq is a command-line YAML/JSON/TOML processor that reads from files or standard input and writes to standard output. **yq does not include any HTTP or network libraries** and makes no network connections at runtime. CVEs related to HTTP, TLS, or networking are therefore **not applicable** to yq.
-
-### Dependency version bumps
-
-yq uses [Dependabot](https://docs.github.com/en/code-security/dependabot) to automatically raise pull requests for:
-
-- Go module dependencies
-- Go toolchain version
-- Docker base images
-
-Please **do not** raise pull requests or issues solely to bump dependency or Go versions — Dependabot handles this automatically and the maintainers merge those PRs regularly.
