collectionForSlot

Which `COLLECTIONS` entry, if any, a slot definition is bound to.

Which COLLECTIONS entry, if any, a slot definition is bound to.

Keys on the SOURCE alone — no slot-type literal involved: a slot is collection-bound iff its source is direct and names a COLLECTIONS field. That a bound slot’s item must be a record (a list carrying fields) is the authoring gate’s business (@homepages/section-contracts), not this key.

Import from @homepages/template-kit.
