Why this extension exists

This archetype focuses on docs QA loops where broken links and heading drift hurt onboarding and release docs quality.

  • Heading hierarchy and duplicate heading checks
  • TOC insertion for long documents

Recommended workflow

  1. Run heading audit before merging docs-heavy PRs.
  2. Run link audit before creating releases.
  3. Insert TOC after large section edits.
