* [AI] docs: fix broken blog links and add enforce-doc-links remark plugin - Fix three docs/ pages that linked to blog posts using URL slugs instead of file paths, with an extra ../ level in the relative path - Add src/remark/enforce-doc-links.js: remark plugin that enforces link hygiene in docs/ and blog/ at build time (no absolute internal links, .md extension required, slug-style links caught via frontmatter cache) - Upgrade onBrokenMarkdownLinks from 'warn' to 'throw' so broken .md file-path links fail the build rather than being silently ignored * [autofix.ci] apply automated fixes * [AI] docs: add vfile to spell-check allowlist * [AI] docs: fix build failures from cross-plugin and absolute links - Revert docs→blog links to URL-slug style (Docusaurus cannot resolve .md file paths across content plugins — blog is a separate plugin from docs) - Fix absolute /docs/... links in two blog posts to relative URL form - Fix generate-upcoming-release-notes.mjs hardcoded /docs/releases absolute URLs to relative ./releases.md paths - Update enforce-doc-links plugin: exempt docs→blog URL-slug links from Rule 3 (cross-plugin constraint means slug URLs are the required format there); improve Rule 1 error hint to distinguish docs vs blog context * [AI] docs: fix blog→docs links to use absolute URLs Blog posts are embedded in multiple Docusaurus URL contexts (individual post, paginated list pages, tag pages), so relative URLs resolve differently per context. Blog→docs links must use absolute URLs (/docs/...) — relative URLs like ../docs/... incorrectly resolve to /blog/docs/... on list pages. Update enforce-doc-links plugin to exempt blog files from Rule 1 (absolute link check) since absolute URLs are the required format for blog→docs links. --------- Co-authored-by: autofix-ci[bot] <114827586+autofix-ci[bot]@users.noreply.github.com>
