A summary of changes implemented:

Original Managing (pipeline) secrets page-related changes (since the current content organisation on this page is a little messy and unclear):

  • Add a new Secrets section with a Secrets overview page (preview here) to contain all new secrets-related content (in child pages) for Buildkite Pipelines. Provide overview that this section contains details on how to manage secrets in Buildkite Pipelines for both Buildkite hosted and self-hosted agent setups. Add links to all child pages with brief, relevant explanations.

  • Move current anti-pattern content from here onwards on the original Managing (pipeline) secrets page onto its own Risk considerations page (preview here), and modify its headings' intro sections to add more context to the page and each revised heading. (That is, remove the term 'anti-pattern' from each heading as it's jargon and adds no value now that they appear on their own page.)

  • Make the Managing (pipeline) secrets page a child of the new Secrets section and update its URL path to match its sibling pages (preview here).

  • Add intro sections to the relevant top-half sections of the Managing (pipeline) secrets page (preview here) to clarify which sections of this page are relevant to Buildkite hosted agents, self-hosted agents, or both.

  • Move the original Buildkite secrets page from its Hosted agents section to this new Security > Secrets section as this feature is applicable to both Buildkite hosted agents and self-hosted agents. (I.e. It doesn't make sense and is confusing housing this page within the Hosted agents section of the docs.) Therefore, The Buildkite secrets page's URL path is updated to match its sibling pages (preview here).

As part of changing URLs, URL redirects were also implemented, as well as page links to this content from elsewhere throughout the Buildkite Docs, which the muffet job would have picked up.

There is a 2nd part to this work which is being covered in a separate PR (#2878).
