  extended_description: |
    Razobill is a high-performance C++20 log parsing and analytical database compaction engine grounded in "Latitude and Doubt" (M. M. Atta, 2026).
    It provides exact byte-for-byte lossless log reconstruction while reducing raw log storage by 45%+ in DuckDB and 93.8% in columnar cloud storage (AWS S3 Parquet).
