Add a Netlify edge function that serves raw .md files when the client sends Accept: text/markdown or text/plain. A build-time script copies markdown sources into out/_md/docs/ for the edge function to proxy. Signed-off-by: Julien Pivotto <291750+roidelapluie@users.noreply.github.com>

There was a problem hiding this comment.
Generally looks ok to me too. I want to call out two considerations that are probably ok, but at least we should be explicitly aware of them:
- We are making the site deployment way more Netlify-dependent than before (it's no longer just serving static files).
- I wonder what the performance hit will be to serve every request through an edge function rather than just serving a static file. Probably fine? Does Netlify's caching along with the
Vary: Accepttake care of it still?

We might be better of with a llms.txt. |

Apparently useful for agents.
