I am not sure if I understand the details of what you are referring to.

Can you please illustrate how to use the described AST markup for the
following Texinfo snippet:

    By convention, the dynamic library for @var{language} is
    @code{libtree-@{sitter@}-@var{"language"}.@var{ext}}, where @var{ext} is the
    system-specific extension for dynamic libraries.
