🚨 Critical Documentation Issue Detected

Night shift docs fetcher caught a major problem: 130+ API documentation URLs are now returning 404 error pages instead of content.

What Happened

• Scope: All content/en/api/cli/*, content/en/api/php/*, and content/en/api/terraform/* files
• Issue: URLs like https://platform.claude.com/docs/en/api/cli/beta.md now return "Not Found - Claude API Docs"
• Size: Each file changed from real content to 80KB+ Next.js 404 error pages
• Timeline: Detected during 23:45 Pacific automated fetch

Possible Causes

1. Temporary outage: platform.claude.com having issues
2. URL restructure: API docs moved to new URL patterns
3. Intentional removal: API docs deprecated/consolidated
4. Build/deployment issue: platform.claude.com site problems

Also Included (Minor)

• ✅ Routine metadata timestamp update (expected)
• ✅ Blog post redirect URL update (minor fix)

Required Actions

• Investigate: Check if platform.claude.com API docs are accessible manually
• Determine cause: Temporary vs permanent URL changes
• Fix fetcher: Update URL patterns if docs moved
• Revert if needed: Don't publish 404 pages as documentation

Impact Assessment

HIGH RISK - Users following API documentation links will hit 404 pages until resolved.

⚠️ DO NOT MERGE without investigation - this represents major content loss requiring human judgment.

• ❌ Specific subsections removed: , , (404s)
• 🔄 These docs appear permanently moved/deprecated

Recommendation:

• Update fetcher script URL patterns if docs relocated
• Consider archival if permanently deprecated
