Fixed in 924b906. The semicolon inside the sequenceDiagram message text (Mark self as healthy; begin accepting requests) was being interpreted as a Mermaid statement terminator, causing the parse error. Replaced with a comma.

Fix the links for the table of contents to line up with the titles for everything but numbers 1, 2, 4, 15, which are already aligned with the section titles

I've verified that all 17 ToC anchors are technically correct — each one exactly matches the GitHub-generated anchor for its section heading, and there are no duplicate anchor collisions. The link text also matches the heading text for all entries.
Could you clarify what you'd like changed? Specifically:
- Should the section headings themselves be renamed (e.g., shortened to match a particular format), with the ToC following?
- Or is there a specific rendering issue you're seeing in GitHub that I should reproduce?
An example of the desired form for one of the non-aligned entries (3, 5–14, 16–17) would help me understand the target format.
