Review Change Stack

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The plugin documentation path changed from PLUGINS to PLUGINS_OVERVIEW. Navigation, generated pages, repository documentation, plugin references, and MkDocs deployment configuration were updated. A redirect preserves the previous path.

Changes

Plugin documentation migration

Layer / File(s) Summary
Canonical page and MkDocs routing
docs/PLUGINS_OVERVIEW.md, docs/gen_plugin_pages.py, mkdocs.yml, .github/workflows/mkdocs.yml
The canonical links, generated plugin index, MkDocs navigation, redirect configuration, and deployment dependencies now support PLUGINS_OVERVIEW.
Repository documentation references
README.md, docs/*.md
Repository documentation links now point to PLUGINS_OVERVIEW, including setup, integration, operational, and plugin-specific guides.
Plugin and skill references
.claude/skills/..., .gemini/skills/..., .github/skills/..., front/pluginsCore.php, server/plugins/**/README.md
Skill instructions, the plugin help icon, and plugin README notes now reference the new plugin overview path.

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to ba007

The plugin documentation migration updates the canonical page and redirects, but some repository links lead users to an invalid repository path or nonexistent page section. Fixing these links will ensure plugin documentation remains reachable from repository READMEs.

Fix the heading level on this changed line.

Line [10] uses an H3 immediately after the document H1. markdownlint MD001 expects an H2. Change ### to ##, or add the missing H2 heading.

Replace the stale #readme fragments with relevant anchors.

docs/PLUGINS_OVERVIEW.md has no readme heading. Use #available-plugins at line 86. At line 95, remove the fragment or link to the custom-plugin section; #enabling-plugins describes loading existing plugins, not building scanners.

Use a URL that resolves from server/plugins/README.md.

The /docs/PLUGINS_OVERVIEW.md link is host-root-relative. On GitHub, it does not point to this repository's docs directory. Use the canonical documentation URL instead.
