+/// @file clausifier.h
+/// @brief Converts FOL formulas to Clause Normal Form (CNF).
+///
+/// Clausifier is a stateful object because:
+/// 1. Skolem function counter must be shared across all formulas in a problem
+/// (otherwise different formulas generate conflicting Skolem names).
+/// 2. Variable renaming counter must be shared for the same reason.
+///
+/// Pipeline: eliminate ↔/→ → NNF → Skolemize → distribute ∨ over ∧ → flatten.
