Hi there your regex logic in snippet() looks like more brittle:

p= re.compile("^#+")
m= p.search(section_name)

some thing like these it is used

*you're treating section_name(a string passed by the user , like "## section") as if it's markdown content.
but in reality , we want to find the section header inside the file , not check the input string format , also headers and spacing , which often fails.

The change that can be done 👍

    1. Accept just the plain title text(e.g " Introduction") instead of forcing "## Introduction" .
    2. Build the regex dynamically to match headings in the file.

for example

@env.macro
def snippet(file_path, section_name, num_sections=1):
root = env.variables['config']['docs_dir']
full_path = os.path.join(root, file_path)

with open(full_path, 'r') as myfile:
    content = myfile.read()

# Match a heading that contains the given text
heading_pattern = re.compile(r'^(#+)\s+' + re.escape(section_name) + r'\s*$', re.MULTILINE)
start = heading_pattern.search(content)

if not start:
    return f"Section '{section_name}' not found in {file_path}"

section_level = len(start.group(1))  # number of '#' determines level
start_index = start.end()

# Find the next heading of same or higher level
next_heading_pattern = re.compile(r'^(#{1,' + str(section_level) + r'})\s+', re.MULTILINE)
following = [m for m in next_heading_pattern.finditer(content[start_index:])]

if len(following) == 0 or (num_sections - 1) >= len(following):
    result = content[start.start():]
else:
    end = following[num_sections - 1]
    result = content[start.start(): start_index + end.start()]

return result

• These change can make the macro more robust and user-friendly.

please let me know i am right on wrong about these concept
