+      Short-URL redirect stub: azmsh.net/ch -> /docs/suggested_channels.html
+
+      This is raw HTML rather than a Markdown page on purpose. The `offline`
+      plugin in mkdocs.yml turns off directory URLs, so a `ch.md` would build
+      to `/ch.html` (azmsh.net/ch.html, 17 chars) instead of `/ch`
+      (azmsh.net/ch, 12 chars). MkDocs copies non-Markdown files from docs/
+      through verbatim, so this file lands at /ch/index.html and GitHub Pages
+      serves it for /ch (301 -> /ch/).
+
+      Those few bytes matter: this link is meant to fit inside Meshtastic
+      auto-acknowledgement messages, which are hard-capped at 237 UTF-8 bytes.
+
+      Reverting is just deleting this directory.
