Every API doc that declares frontmatter (method/path/auth/area) is now
checked by a unit test against three sources of truth:
1. Route registration: internal/router/*.go is parsed the way echo resolves
it (group prefixes concatenate; scanner.go's parameterized groups seeded).
Doc paths that no longer exist fail. (This is the check that would have
caught the /api/api/admin/hash-conflicts split.)
2. Auth: frontmatter auth label must match the middleware chain
(none|jwt|jwt+admin|device-token|optional-jwt).
3. Shapes: internal/docs/schema.go registry — example-request decoded with
unknown fields DISALLOWED (typo guard), required-by-validate fields must
appear (staleness guard), example-response top-level key set compared
both directions against the marshaled handler type (or a RawMessage pin
for hand-built map responses).
Five collections docs are the pilots with real handler shapes; notable
corrections they pin: update returns 201 (not 200), list excludes smart
collections unless include_auto=true, rule priority is 1-10 higher-wins
(docs claimed 1=highest), created_at is Go time.String() not RFC3339,
hide_finished/show_up_next toggles documented. CollectionResponse hoisted
out of GetCollections/GetBookCollections as CollectionSummary /
BookCollectionSummary so the registry can pin real types.
The gate fails on missing registry entries by design — that is the
maintenance contract. Known pre-existing (not this commit): vet copy-lock
warnings in media.go.
BREAKING CHANGE: Documentation URLs have changed
New structure:
- user/ - End-user documentation (device setup, sync guides, frontend)
- developer/ - Developer documentation (API reference, protocols, specs)
- operations/ - Operations documentation (deployment, troubleshooting)
- contributing/ - Contribution guides
Changes:
- Created portal INDEX.md files for each audience section
- Moved device guides to user/devices/ (kobo-setup.md, koreader-setup.md)
- Moved API docs to developer/ (api-reference.md, collections-api.md)
- Moved sync guide to user/sync-guide.md
- Moved troubleshooting to operations/troubleshooting.md
- Moved all split API docs to developer/api/
- Renamed protocol files (kobo-protocol.md, koreader-protocol.md)
- Added placeholder user guides (frontend, user-areas, settings, admin)
- Updated all internal links to new paths
- Updated Go code (http_handler.go, navigation.go) for new paths
- Updated main INDEX.md for audience-based navigation
Benefits:
- Clear separation of user and developer documentation
- Scalable structure for future user guide expansion
- Better organization and discoverability
- Audience-specific landing pages
