Chronicle's docs were organised around the framework's own parts — nine pages, each named after a thing. A reader arriving with a job had to guess which noun held the answer. This rebuilds them around the jobs, and fixes the product bugs that writing them exposed.

The docs

Nine pages become twenty-four, in six groups: start here, writing docs, guides, themes, reference, deploy and operate.

features.mdx is gone. It had been doing three jobs at once — a marketing bullet list, a feature index, and the only documentation anywhere in the site for five topics. Sorting and meta.json moved to Navigation, redirects to Links and redirects, markdown URLs and llms.txt to Generated routes, the playground to API reference, health checks to Monitoring. What remained became an Introduction.

Versioning, API references and deployment each had a config key and a bullet and no guide, despite being three of the strongest reasons to pick Chronicle. Deployment was the sharpest case: the last step of the job was three words in a config reference. All three have guides now, alongside search, multiple content sections, and moving an existing docs site over.

configuration.mdx was 468 lines — nearly a third of the site, and where people were forced to learn versioning and API specs because there was nowhere else. It is a reference again, linking out to the guide for each large key.

Seven permanent redirects cover every URL that moved, so no existing link breaks. url is set, which the sitemap, canonical tags and social cards all needed and none of them had.

Product bugs found while writing

Writing a page means checking what actually happens, which turned up four bugs and several stale claims.

Versioned sites could not be built. chronicle build failed on any site with a versions: key — dev mode was fine, so it only appeared at deploy time. remarkResolveImages located a page's content root by looking for /content/ and returned when it found none; versioned pages live under versions/v1/docs/, so every one returned before setting file.data.images, and valueToExport then killed the build. build:examples:versioned goes from failing to passing.

The sidebar was empty, or wrong. filterPageTreeByContentDir ran twice on the same tree and could not tell an already-narrowed tree from a wide one. The docs site rendered nothing, the basic example showed only its guides folder, and a versioned site showed only its first content directory.

Previous and next walked out of the section. The last page of Docs offered the first page of Ops Guide. Both implementations — server and static build — now chain per section from shared helpers, so they cannot drift.

Every browser tab said "Chronicle". Two <title> tags reached the document and browsers read the first, which was the site-level one.

theme.colors did nothing. It was in the schema, documented as "custom color overrides", and read by no theme anywhere. Implemented rather than deleted — the schema is .strict(), so removing the key would take configs that set it from silently ignored to failing at startup. Values are validated against a colour-shaped pattern before reaching the stylesheet.

A folder's index page was unreachable. default and paper rendered a folder's children but never its index, and the group label is a collapse trigger rather than a link. fanfold already handled it; the other two now match.

Also corrected in the docs: three deploy presets were listed where the code has eight, four of them static; search was described two different ways on two pages; and a static build was documented as pre-rendered HTML when it is a single-page app needing a rewrite rule — the usual reason a deep link 404s.

Verification

  • 357 tests pass, tsc clean, lint unchanged at 35 warnings
  • All three sites build, including build:examples:versioned
  • Every one of the 24 pages returns 200 with a single heading; every internal link resolves; all seven redirects return 308
  • Checked in the browser across all three themes against three sites: docs (one section), basic (nested folders + two APIs), versioned (four sections × three versions)

Comment @coderabbitai help to get the list of available commands.

A content directory is a section: its own folder, its own URL prefix, its own
navigation. Four things were leaking across those boundaries or losing them.

`filterPageTreeByContentDir` was called twice on the same tree — once by
`entry-server` before serialising, once by `DocsLayout` on what it was handed —
and the second pass had no way to tell an already narrowed tree from a wide one.
It looked for a folder whose urls all start with the prefix, which on a narrowed
tree matches the first sub-folder instead. So the docs site rendered an empty
sidebar, the basic example showed only its `guides` folder, and a versioned site
showed only its first content directory.

Telling the two apart needs three signals, because url shapes alone are
ambiguous: `root → [folder Docs (/docs/*)]` and
`root → [folder guides (/docs/guides/*)]` look identical to a prefix test. A
folder is the content directory when every url inside it belongs to the
directory, when it holds every url in the tree that belongs to the directory,
and when it has a page directly below the prefix rather than only pages nested
deeper. A page sitting at the prefix settles it earlier: that is the directory's
own page, so the tree is already its contents.

`filterPageTreeByVersion` had the same double-call problem and now recognises an
already narrowed tree too.

Previous and next were chained across the whole site, so the last page of Docs
offered the first page of Ops Guide — walking a reader out of the section they
chose. Both implementations now chain per section, sharing
`contentSectionPrefixes` and `sectionOf` so the server and the static build
cannot drift apart.

The fanfold header printed "DOCS / DOCS / GETTING STARTED": `getBreadcrumbItems`
starts at the tree root, whose name is the section's own label. Any name that
repeats the one before it is dropped, which also covers a folder whose index
page carries the folder's title. Its workaround for the scoping bug goes with
it — the filters are safe to apply twice now.
`RootHead` rendered the site title and every route then rendered its own, so two
`<title>` tags reached the document. A browser reads the first one, and
`RootHead` renders before the page — so every tab in the site said "Chronicle"
no matter which page was open.

Dropped the one in `RootHead`, which keeps the site-level JSON-LD and nothing
else. Every real route already renders `<Head>`; the two that did not were the
404 and the render-error page, which showed whatever title the previous page had
left behind. Both name themselves now.
`chronicle build` failed on any site with a `versions:` key, so no versioned
site could ship. Dev mode was fine, which is why it went unnoticed — the error
only appears when the production bundle is assembled.

`remarkResolveImages` located a page's content root by looking for `/content/`
in its path and returned when it found none. Versioned pages live under
`versions/v1/docs/`, so every one of them took that path and returned before
setting `file.data.images`. The mdx config names `images` in `valueToExport`, so
the build then died with a missing-export error on the first versioned page it
reached.

It now recognises `versions/` as well. The path below the marker is also the
path under `/_content/` — `content/docs/` mirrors as `docs/` and
`versions/v1/docs/` as `v1/docs/` — so versioned pages get working image
resolution rather than only a build that finishes.

`images` is also initialised before any early return. A page that resolves to
neither root still exports an empty list, so a path shape nobody anticipated
cannot break a build again.
`theme.colors` has been in the config schema, documented as "custom color
overrides", and read by nothing. A site could set it, pass validation, and see
no change.

The alternative was deleting the key, but the schema is `.strict()` — a config
that sets it would go from silently ignored to failing at startup. Better to
make the promise true.

Keys name an Apsara colour token and take the `--rs-color-` prefix
automatically; a key written as a full custom property is used as-is, which is
how a theme's own variables like `--paper-ink` are reached. The declarations go
into the head after the stylesheets so they win, and under `:root` plus both
`[data-theme]` selectors, because Apsara defines its dark values behind that
attribute and a bare `:root` would lose to them once a reader picks a theme.

One value covers both themes, since the config holds one value per token. A
token that needs to differ is better left to the theme.

Values are checked against a colour-shaped pattern before they reach the
stylesheet. This string comes from a config file and is written into CSS, so
anything that could close a declaration or open a rule has to be impossible
rather than unlikely.
Four things in the sidebars, all of them about what a reader could not see.

A site that set no `logo` got a book icon in the default theme and nothing at
all in paper or fanfold. The Raystack mark is the fallback now, in all three,
drawn from the brand file in `raystack/website` with `currentColor` so it works
on either ground. `SidebarLogo` moves to `components/ui/logo.tsx` and resolves
`logo.light` / `logo.dark` for every theme, so a site that sets one gets it
everywhere rather than only where a theme happened to look.

In fanfold the mark sits above the site name rather than beside it. The rail is
a fixed 240px and the display face is wide, so sharing a line started breaking
titles mid-word.

A folder's index page never appeared in the sidebar. `SidebarNode` and
`ChapterNav` render a folder's children and its group label is a collapse
trigger rather than a link, so the page existed with no route into it. Both
render it as the group's first row now — which is what fanfold's `Nav` already
did.

Top-level groups were never collapsible, because `collapsible={depth >= 1}` was
written when the content-root wrapper made every real group a level deeper.
Every group can be collapsed now, with top-level ones open on arrival and nested
ones open only when they hold the page being read.

Two spacing corrections fall out of the above. `.navGroup[data-depth='0']` set a
top margin on every top-level group including the first, which doubled the
padding `.sidebarMain` already applies — 48px above the first label. Apsara
guards its own nav-group margin with `:not(:first-child)`; that guard is
restored and the rest of the rule is dropped, since Apsara's spacing was
winning on source order anyway. The content-directory links then needed a margin
of their own: they are a separate block above the tree, and the tree may start
with a plain page carrying no margin, so the two ran together.
The docs were organised around the framework's own parts. Nine pages, each named
after a thing — Configuration, Frontmatter, Components, Themes — so a reader who
arrived with a job had to guess which noun held the answer. Twenty-four pages in
six groups now, named after the jobs: start here, writing docs, guides, themes,
reference, deploy and operate.

`features.mdx` is gone. It was doing three jobs at once: a marketing bullet
list, a feature index, and the only documentation in the whole site for five
topics. Sorting and `meta.json` went to Navigation, redirects to Links and
redirects, markdown URLs and `llms.txt` to Generated routes, the playground to
API reference, health checks to Monitoring. What was left became an
Introduction.

Versioning, API references and deployment each had a config key and a bullet and
no guide, despite being three of the strongest reasons to pick Chronicle.
Deployment was the sharpest case: the last step of the job was three words in a
config reference. They have guides now, along with search, multiple content
sections, and moving an existing docs site over.

`configuration.mdx` was 468 lines, nearly a third of the site, and was where
people were forced to learn versioning and API specs because there was nowhere
else. It is a reference again, with a link to the guide for each large key. The
frontmatter page leads with a table, and its `draft` section is no longer pasted
into the middle of `authors`, which had split that field's prose in half.

Writing the guides meant reading the source, which turned up four things the
docs had wrong. Only three deploy presets were listed where the code has eight,
four of them static. Search was called "powered by Fumadocs" on one page and
"SQLite FTS5" on another; it is SQLite full-text search on a server build and a
downloaded index in the browser on a static one, which decides how large a
static site can sensibly get. A static build is a single-page app rather than
pre-rendered HTML, so a host has to rewrite unknown paths to `index.html` —
undocumented, and the usual reason a deep link 404s. And it optimises images at
build time, which the old page denied.

Seven permanent redirects cover every URL that moved, so no existing link
breaks. `url` is set, which the sitemap, canonical tags and social cards all
needed and none of them had.

Content elsewhere gets the same treatment as the pages: every file opened with
an `# H1` repeating its own frontmatter title, so both examples and the `init`
scaffold showed the same words twice. Removed, and the rule is written down under
`title` in the frontmatter reference. The one exception is the basic example's
heading-levels demo, which now starts at `##` and says why.

Inject buildThemeColorCss(config.theme?.colors) into the static document. generateSpaIndex embeds config and loads entry-static.tsx, but entry-static.tsx and App only apply the named theme; neither applies theme.colors. Sites generated with configured colors therefore omit the CSS variable overrides that SSR inserts. Add the stylesheet to the static <head> and cover it with a static-build regression test.

than at startup. Clarify that the first readiness check starts indexing and that
readiness should account for the index not yet being populated.

In `@docs/content/docs/guides/api-reference.mdx`:
- Around line 91-92: Update the credential-flow statement in the API reference
guide to clarify that the request tester sends authentication headers to

be trusted; remove the claim that the value is sent only to the API under test.

In `@docs/content/docs/guides/migrate.mdx`:
- Around line 31-32: Resolve the contradictory title behavior in the migration

In `@docs/content/docs/writing/navigation.mdx`:
- Line 56: Update the navigation documentation sentence about pages directly in
the content directory appearing before folders to clarify that this is only the

preserving the existing labeled behavior elsewhere.

In `@packages/chronicle/src/lib/remark-resolve-images.ts`:
- Line 74: Update the marker-selection logic in the image-resolution flow to
choose whichever of /versions/ or /content/ occurs at the greatest path index,

sibling section exists, and add a regression case covering that layout.

In `@packages/chronicle/src/themes/default/Layout.tsx`:
- Line 357: Update Sidebar.Group usage in SidebarNode so its expanded state
stays synchronized with hasActiveChild after pathname changes, rather than

Allow decorative logo usage.

Logo always exposes config.site.title as the SVG label or image alt. fanfold/Layout.tsx and the single-entry branch of paper/Layout.tsx render that same title beside the logo, so assistive technology can announce the title twice. Add an alt or decorative option and use an empty accessible name for those placements.

Also applies to: 64-66

CodeRabbit flagged eight things on #185. Seven were real.

The serious one: identifying a content directory by the shape of its urls broke
a section that holds only sub-folders. No index page and no page directly under
the prefix meant the wrapper failed the depth check, and with a sibling section
present the tree came back empty — an empty sidebar.

The heuristic is gone. `buildFiles` already marks every content root with
`root: true`, and fumadocs carries that onto the folder node; it was only
missing because `compactTree` dropped it before the tree reached a layout.
Keeping it on folders makes the check explicit, and the three-signal guess with
it. `KEEP_FIELDS` gains `root` for folders only — it means nothing on a page or
a separator, and a test already pinned that.

`splitContentRoot` took the first marker in array order rather than the deepest
in the path, so a project inside a directory named `versions` resolved its
images against the wrong root.

Sidebar groups used `defaultOpen`, which is read once on mount. Client-side
navigation does not remount the tree, so a group the reader collapsed stayed
shut over the page they then opened. Controlled now, reopening when it holds the
active page and otherwise leaving the reader's choice alone.

`Logo` gained a `labelled` option. Fanfold and paper render the site name beside
it, where announcing it again is noise — and the fallback is Raystack's mark,
which should not speak for a site that is not theirs.

Four documentation corrections, all mine. The request tester's proxy means an
auth token reaches the docs server, so "stays in their browser" was wrong and
worth being plain about. The search index is built on the first readiness or
search request, not at startup — nothing calls `ensureIndex` before then. A page
without `title` renders as `Untitled` rather than failing, so "required" was
overstating it in three places. And pages do not sort before folders: they share
one scale, as the same page said two sections later.

The eighth finding misread the mark's label as the site title. Skipped.

Comments throughout this branch were doing too much explaining. Cut back to what
the code cannot say for itself.
The fallback mark was Raystack's. Fine for a Raystack site, wrong for anyone
else's — a project that forgot to set `logo` shipped someone else's branding.
It is now the site's first letter in a tinted box: plain enough to read as
unfinished rather than borrowed. Codepoint-safe, so an emoji or a non-Latin
title survives being taken apart.

Two places ignored `logo` entirely.

The favicon was hardcoded to `/favicon.ico` and `/favicon.svg`, so a site that
set a logo still had to supply favicon files separately, and one that did
neither got no favicon at all. A configured logo is now the icon; the static
files stay as the fallback, so an explicit favicon still works.

Social cards read `logo.dark` alone. A site that set only `light` got a card
with no mark even though its sidebar showed one. Both variants resolve now, and
a site with no logo gets the same initial the sidebar falls back to.

Drawing the box from `currentColor` looked right but was not: Apsara colours its
text components rather than their containers, so the inherited colour is black
in both themes and the letter vanished on a dark ground. It takes explicit
tokens instead. `.brandLogo` in fanfold was setting `display: block` for an svg,
which killed the flex centring — block-level `flex` keeps both.

Do not treat every /versions/ directory as a content root.

For .../content/versions/guides/page.mdx, this loop selects .../content/versions/ as the root. A relative ./img.png then resolves to /_content/guides/img.png instead of /_content/versions/guides/img.png.

Use a configured or otherwise unambiguous version-root boundary. Add a regression case for a normal content tree with a nested versions folder.

Reopen an active group on each navigation.

If a reader collapses a group and navigates to another page in the same group, hasActiveChild remains true. The effect does not run, so the active sidebar item remains hidden. Include pathname in the dependency list.

Chronicle is a Raystack project, so its docs should carry the Raystack mark —
but through `chronicle.yaml` like any other site would, not baked into a theme.
The themes stay neutral and fall back to the site's initial.

The brand file draws a flat navy through a single-stop gradient, which reads as
near-black on a dark page. Flattened to a plain fill, with a light variant for
`logo.dark`. Same path data either way.

This also becomes the favicon and the mark on social cards, which the config now
covers.
Navy pulled the eye to the one thing on the page that is not type. Greyscale
sits with the rest of the sidebar instead.

Matched to the site's own ink rather than picked by eye:
`--rs-color-foreground-base-primary` is oklch(0.2435 0 0) in light and
oklch(0.9491 0 0) in dark, which are #202020 and #EEEEEE.
