• High-Level Request:

    • Ensure that there are no dead links in the new documentation site - at a minimum, every link should lead to a “Work in progress/Under construction” area.

  • Actions Taken:

    • Site Analysis: Thoroughly analyzed the Jekyll documentation site structure in /docs/ directory, examining all markdown files, navigation configuration, and link patterns
    • Dead Link Identification: Found one primary dead link - the API Reference page was referenced in /docs/documentation/index.md but the actual page /docs/documentation/api.md did not exist
    • API Reference Creation: Created a comprehensive “Under Construction” page at /docs/documentation/api.md with:
      • Clear indication that API docs are being developed
      • Detailed description of what content will be included when complete
      • Alternative resources for immediate developer needs (architecture, agent guidelines, contributing guide)
      • Community support channels for getting help
      • Proper Jekyll front matter with correct permalink (/documentation/api/)
    • Link Validation: Developed and ran validation scripts to systematically check all internal links, verifying that Jekyll’s permalink structure correctly routes all page-to-page navigation
    • Structure Verification: Confirmed all navigation links in _config.yml point to valid pages, all documentation cross-references work correctly, and all external links point to valid GitHub repository URLs

  • Friction/Success Points:

    • Success: Jekyll’s permalink system made the fix straightforward - once the missing api.md file was created with the correct permalink, all existing links automatically resolved properly
    • Success: The documentation site structure was already well-designed with consistent patterns, making it easy to create a matching “Under Construction” page
    • Learning: Understanding Jekyll’s routing vs. file structure is crucial - the site serves pages based on permalink definitions rather than actual file paths, so link validation needs to account for this
    • Success: Created reusable validation scripts that can be used for future site maintenance to catch dead links early
