figrecover
==========

``figrecover`` recovers approximate source tables from scientific and
professional figures when the original data were not published.

The package is pre-release. The current implementation supports deterministic
calibrated extraction from prepared image crops, deterministic PDF preparation,
review bundles, corpus orchestration, local VLM metadata proposals, and
downstream modelling exports.

The public-alpha contract is conservative: recovered values are approximate
and should be reviewed before they become scientific or operational model
inputs. Deterministic calibrated extraction is preferred for numeric recovery;
VLM outputs are metadata and calibration proposals unless a caller explicitly
chooses an experimental VLM-only path.
