-    Returns merged dict with nodes, edges, hyperedges, input_tokens, output_tokens.
+    Chunking strategy:
+        - If `token_budget` is set (default 60_000), files are packed to fit
+          the budget and grouped by parent directory. This avoids the worst
+          case where 20 randomly-grouped files exceed a model's context
+          window in a single request.
+        - If `token_budget=None`, falls back to the legacy fixed-count
+          `chunk_size` packing for backwards compatibility.
+
+    Concurrency:
+        - Chunks run in parallel via a thread pool capped at `max_concurrency`
+          (default 4 — conservative to stay under provider rate limits).
+        - Set `max_concurrency=1` to force sequential execution.
+
+    Adaptive retry on truncation:
+        - When the LLM returns `finish_reason="length"` (output truncated at
+          `max_completion_tokens`), the chunk is split in half and each half
+          re-extracted recursively, up to `max_retry_depth` levels deep
+          (default 3 → max 8x expansion of one chunk).
+        - This is signal-driven: chunks too dense to fit in one response
+          self-heal by splitting until they do, while well-sized chunks pay
+          no extra cost. Set `max_retry_depth=0` to disable retries.
+
+    `on_chunk_done(idx, total, chunk_result)` fires once per chunk as it
+    completes (in completion order, not submission order). `idx` is the
+    chunk's submission index so callers can correlate progress. The
+    callback fires once per top-level chunk; recursive splits are merged
+    transparently before the callback is invoked.
+
+    Returns merged dict with nodes, edges, hyperedges, input_tokens,
+    output_tokens. Failed chunks are logged to stderr and skipped — one bad
+    chunk does not abort the run.
