Documentation snippets now live as importable modules under `docs/examples/` and are pulled into the docs with `literalinclude`, so every prose example is type-checked, linted, and imported by the test suite instead of drifting silently. - add `docs/examples/version_lookup.py` and reference it from `usage.rst` - add `tests/test_docs_examples.py` (importability + behaviour coverage) - widen ruff/mypy/basedpyright/ty/pyrefly/pylint/zuban scope to `docs/examples` - add a `docs-doctest` tox env (sphinx doctest builder) to `env_list` and a matching `mise` task, plus `sphinx.ext.doctest` - document the rationale in ADR-028 and refresh golden files + render tests
📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughThe template adds an executable version lookup example, renders it in usage documentation, enables Sphinx doctests, expands quality-tool scopes, and generates tests for documentation examples when documentation is enabled. ChangesDocumentation example validation
Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~25 minutes Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to The PR can generate documentation example files even when documentation is disabled and may fail static type checking because the dynamically loaded example has no declared interface. Merge should wait for these bounded correctness and validation issues to be fixed. 🚥 Pre-merge checks | ✅ 5✅ Passed checks (5 passed)

When include_docs=true, an unpacked sdist cannot run its shipped test suite: [tool.hatch.build.targets.sdist] includes /tests but not /docs, so this test finds no files under docs/examples and always fails (and the behavior test would likewise try to load a missing file). Include docs/examples in the sdist or avoid shipping a test whose required inputs are excluded.
Useful? React with 👍 / 👎.

Add a typed interface for the dynamically loaded module. _load_example() returns ModuleType, which does not declare version_lookup(). Define a Protocol with version_lookup() -> str and cast the loaded module before calling it.

Pull request overview
This PR strengthens the include_docs subsystem by turning documentation examples into real, importable Python modules and adding CI gates to keep both example modules and inline doctest snippets from drifting over time.
Changes:
- Add
docs/examples/example modules and include them in Sphinx vialiteralinclude. - Add a generated test suite that imports all
docs/examples/*.py(and asserts behavior for theversion_lookupexample). - Expand static-analysis and lint scopes to include
docs/examples, and add adocs-doctesttox env (wired into defaulttox runwhen docs are enabled).
