Problem
The 2026-09-01 focused Ahrefs crawl found that repository-only authoring files are published and indexed as product documentation:
/CLAUDEis a 200 page in the sitemap and links to four ignored.claude/*.mdfiles that return 404./tests/TESTSis a 200 page in the sitemap even though thetests/tree is an internal agent-test harness.These surfaces account for two orphan-page errors, four 404 URLs, one page-with-broken-links error, and duplicate-H1 noise.
Change
Add a root
.mintignorethat excludesCLAUDE.mdandtests/from Mintlify processing and publishing. Product documentation, navigation, redirects, and indexing policy are unchanged.Verification
