+`topdata.class_feat_injections` controls generated rows for every
+`classes/feats/*.json` table. `global_feats` injects concrete `feat:*`
+references unless the class already authors that feat; `require_present` and
+`unless_present` can make a rule conditional on other feat references already
+present in the same class feat table. `class_skill_masterfeats` expands a
+`masterfeats:*` family once for each class skill, using the configured
+`list`, `granted_on_level`, and `on_menu` values. When this block is omitted,
+the toolkit keeps its legacy default injections for compatibility.
+
 `topdata.wiki.alignment_links.target_pattern` controls whether formatted
 alignment names become internal wiki links. The pattern may use `{alignment}`
 for the title-shaped alignment segment with spaces converted to underscores, and
