2026-02 Docs Foundation

Scope: documentation platform and public docs delivery.

Shipped

  • Added top-level docs sections with section-scoped left navigation.
  • Introduced build-time markdown compilation with deterministic heading IDs and right-rail TOC generation.
  • Established public_docs/ as the public content source with frontmatter validation.

Impact

  • Faster and more predictable docs rendering.
  • Better discoverability for growing docs volume.
  • Cleaner separation between public docs and internal engineering docs.

Operator / contributor action

  • Follow required frontmatter contract for new public docs pages.
  • Keep public docs in public_docs/; keep internal contracts in docs/.
