It's paired with a pattern that locates a line like `export const meta = {...}` in a file's source and pulls out just that object.\n\nThis looks like the machinery used to read `meta` information out of things like skill or command files.\n\n**Why**\n\nExtracting this kind of data without using `eval` (a way of running arbitrary code found in a string) is safer, since it avoids executing anything from the file being read.\n\n- Area: Elsewhere\n- Tier: Under the hood\n- Useful: 2\/5\n- Signal: 2\/5"}
