Context: #10 exposed that configured prefix values are interpolated directly into several regular expressions in src/spec.ts and src/annotations.ts. Prefixes containing regex metacharacters can be misinterpreted or cause regex construction failures.
Source: deferred item in the final dual-review triage: #10 (comment)
Why deferred: The behavior predates PR #10 on origin/main and is separate from the file-scoped-ID feature's approved scope.
Implementation outline:
- Introduce a shared regex-escaping helper for literal configured prefixes.
- Apply it consistently to spec classification, legacy heading parsing, annotation scanning, and hash classification.
- Add tests using metacharacter-bearing prefixes, including one that would otherwise throw.
