The astro-theme sets build.format: "file", so Astro.url.pathname carries a .html suffix during the build while Cloudflare serves the extensionless form as the 200. BaseHead.astro built the canonical and og:url from the raw pathname, so every docs page declared a canonical pointing at a URL that redirects back to itself. Nothing else on the site publishes those addresses, which makes the canonical tag the only reason Google has them: 24 URLs in Search Console's "Page with redirect" bucket originate here. normalisedPath already existed in the file and already stripped the suffix, added in #422 for the blog-override lookup. The fallback branch now uses it. Also: - _redirects: 301s for eight renamed docs paths confirmed 404ing in the Search Console export, plus a real 301 for the /docs meta-refresh stub. Specific rules are ordered above the .html wildcards so renamed paths resolve in one hop. - sitemap.xml.ts: stop submitting /docs/, which was listed at priority 0.8, the highest in the file, despite being a meta-refresh stub Google will never index. No URL that currently returns 200 changes behaviour.
