One record, one file. The jurisdiction tree is now real: us/people/ 542 federal us/states/<xx>/people/ 7,561 state us/states/fl/counties/<c>/people/ 1,058 county .../municipalities/<m>/people/ 2,124 municipal (67 FL counties) Each file is OKF markdown + YAML frontmatter: fixed key order, field-level source provenance, Atlas UUIDs for round-tripping, deterministic paths and slugs. Converter passes the determinism test: two runs, byte-identical tree. Generated by scripts/convert_officeholders.py from data/officeholders-v2.jsonl (unchanged).
