Second step of the versioned docs archive for v1.0. This adds everything needed to archive a release line's docs and verify the archive, and it's inert until one exists. There are zero archives in this PR and the exported docs are unchanged.

How an archive works

An archive is docs/content/docs/vX.Y/, a byte-for-byte copy of docs/content/docs/current as it was at the last release tag of that line. It serves at /docs/vX.Y/<page>. Because it's an exact copy, proving it is one tree-hash comparison against the tag.

What's here

  • npm run docs:archive -- <tag> cuts an archive from a tag through git, never from the working tree. It validates every input before writing and undoes its own writes if a step fails.
  • docs/content/archive-provenance.json records the tag, commit, path and tree for each archive.
  • scripts/docs-archive-config-test.sh is the contract, with a self-test beside it. Archive directories and provenance entries must match one to one, the tag must resolve to the recorded commit, the committed tree must equal the tree at the tag, the tag must be the last of its line, the current line can't have an archive, and once the line advances the previous line's archive has to exist. It runs in Release Contract, pre-push and the release cut.
  • A remark plugin scopes root-relative links inside archive pages to their version at build time, so the archived files stay untouched.
  • Archive pages are noindex, carry the version in the title, and show a callout linking to the current page.
  • The stale-version grep in the release contract skips archives, since they name old versions on purpose.
  • RELEASING.md and docs/content/README.md describe the layout and the cut.

A line can only be archived from a tag that already has docs/content/docs/current, so v0.9 gets archived from a tag cut after the docs move, not from v0.9.24.

Verification

  • Built with a temporary v0.9 copy and read the export: pages land at docs/out/v0.9/<slug>.html, the version index at docs/out/v0.9.html, archive pages have the robots tag and callout, and markdown and Card links resolve under /docs/v0.9/. One archive adds 6,978 bytes per page.
  • With the copy removed, the exported page list equals dev's (19 files).
  • Each contract assertion has a mutation in the self-test that fails when the assertion is removed.
  • Web tests, lint, knip, the docs type check, the page-weight budget, actionlint, zizmor, qlty and every scripts/*-test.sh pass. Full pre-push hook passed.

Not proven here: Vercel serving the dotted /docs/v0.9 route. Previews are off, so the first real archive is the first proof.

Review

Codex reviewed the contract and tooling, and separately the rendering. No blockers, eight should-fix findings, all fixed in the three fix(docs) commits. One more came from the pre-push hook itself: the cut script's tests inherited GIT_DIR from the hook and ran their fixture commits against the real repo. The fixture tests now drop every GIT_* variable and check they're inside the fixture before committing.

Changelog

  • ✨ Added npm run docs:archive -- <tag> to create a versioned docs archive from a release tag and update provenance and page metadata.
  • ✨ Added archive contract checks for archive layout, provenance, tag and commit identity, tree equality, release-line ordering, and required archives.
  • ✨ Added archive-aware link scoping, versioned page metadata, noindex settings, and a callout to current documentation.
  • ✨ Added export-contract support for versioned archive pages and tests for archive creation, validation, and link handling.
  • 🔧 Integrated the archive contract into Release Contract, the release-cut workflow, and pre-push checks.
  • 🔧 Updated release and docs-content guidance. Excluded archived docs from the stale-version scan.
  • 🐛 Added rollback handling for failed archive writes and isolated fixture repositories from inherited Git environment variables.
  • 🗑️ No archives are included. docs/content/archive-provenance.json is empty, so this change does not add documentation pages.

Concerns

  • ⚠️ Vercel serving of dotted routes such as /docs/v0.9 remains unverified. The first real archive is needed to confirm production routing.

Leave native <a> and /docs-prefixed targets alone, scope string-literal
expression hrefs, validate cross-version links against the version they
name, and add content tests forbidding the two link forms that cannot work.
Walk the CHANGELOG past patch releases on the current line, compare lines
numerically, and skip lines whose last tag predates the current/ layout.
…hemselves

Validate every input before writing, roll back on a failed write, suggest the
numerically newest patch tag, and remove the temp repos the tests create.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The changes add tooling to create documentation archives from release tags and validate their provenance. The archive contract runs in CI, release-cut, and pre-push checks. Documentation rendering now identifies archived pages and scopes eligible links to their version. Export and link checks include archived content, and archived routes receive dedicated security-header tests.

Suggested labels: second-opinion


Priority: ⬇️ Low

Change: Feature

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 4d799

This adds archive tooling and contracts that do nothing until an archive is cut. Two small fixes are worth making before merge: the cut script should ignore inherited Git environment variables, and the canonical URL should be built so a trailing slash in the site URL does not produce a double slash. Neither affects existing docs behavior.

Docs archive cut, provenance and contract. 14 required checks and Web Contract green on 4725b35. Codex reviewed in two scoped runs (eight should-fix findings, all fixed), CodeRabbit raised two minor findings (both fixed). CodeQL still annotates one file-race note in the maintainer-run cut script (alert 407), tracked as a follow-up.
