docs: verify the base path on the real host
The real-host smoke test was the migration's #1 production-only failure mode and
had never run. It has now run, without taking the site down: the Astro dist was
published to `pages` additively under two previously-unused paths (`_astro/` and
`_verify/summary/`), so all ten live pages stayed up, then force-pushed away.

Astro's base-prefixed absolute asset URLs resolve on the Pages Server — that was
the actual risk, and it is now proven rather than assumed. Trailing-slash
redirects match `trailingSlash: 'always'`.

Also corrects two things the guide got wrong:

- a `?v=$(git rev-parse --short HEAD)` cache-busting idiom. The Pages Server
  caches for ten minutes keyed on path, so a query string never busted it; the
  guide was telling operators to trust a check that could not work. A file you
  just deleted keeps serving 200 until the cache expires.
- the claim that a push to `main` publishes. It no longer does, and must not
  until cutover.

Astro refactor — plan

Status: not started. These are briefs, not work. Nothing in this plan has been implemented.

Goal: move ai-for-dummies from ten hand-written HTML pages to Astro, so that adding a chapter is a component and a content entry rather than a copy-pasted file — without changing how the site looks, what it says, or what it costs a visitor to load.

Session state: see HANDOVER.md. Phase 0 is done and green on four branches; nothing is merged or pushed.

Read before starting anything

File Why
../../AGENTS.md entry point
../../.agents/context/design-system.md three drifting palettes, a font that has never rendered
../../.agents/context/verification.md 42 assertions that will all break, and must not be deleted
../../.agents/context/publishing.md Gitea Pages serves a branch and cannot build

The three things most likely to go wrong

  1. Content loss that nobody notices. 50 KB of bilingual copy moves between files. Snapshot every route before migrating it — task 03 exists to make that possible and blocks all page work.
  2. Assertions deleted to make a red suite green. That converts a content-loss bug into a passing build. gate.sh refuses a coverage drop.
  3. Base-path bugs. The site lives at /ai-for-dummies/. It will work perfectly in pnpm run preview and 404 in production. Verify on the real host.

Phase 1  content           05 ∥ 06                    after 04

Phase 3  pages             12 ∥ 13 ∥ 14 ∥ 17, then 15 ∥ 16
Phase 4  polish            18 ∥ 19, then 20

Widest parallelism: four agents (tasks 0811, then 12/13/14/17). More than that and they start contending on review capacity, not on files.

Running a task

.agents/scripts/worktree.sh start 08 route-cards
cd ../af-task-08
# agent reads: plans/astro-refactor/task-08-route-cards.md
#              .agents/agents/component-builder.md  (+ the skills it names)

The script runs pnpm install --frozen-lockfile and verify-hooks.sh for you. That matters: .husky/_ is generated, not committed, so a hand-made worktree has hooks configured but silently not running.

Finishing:

pnpm run gate                       # tier 2, same as pre-push
# reviewer agent reads the diff against .agents/checklists/before-merge.md
.agents/scripts/worktree.sh finish 08 route-cards

Which model to run each task

See MODEL-ROUTING.md.

Worktrees check out tracked files. If this plan stays untracked, every worktree you create will be missing it. Commit plans/ and .agents/ before fanning out.
