Changes

• Import the versioned public FastLED/dox publication into the website's Pages artifact under /docs/.
• Verify archive checksum/size, safe members, required files and exact embedded release metadata before replacing staged docs.
• Check daily at 10:47 UTC; unchanged publications skip build/deploy. New generations detect intentional same-tag rebuilds. Website pushes still publish website edits with the latest documentation.
• Record successful checks at most monthly to keep scheduling active.
• Remove the old documentation landing redirect and 404 JavaScript redirect. Keep generated documentation outside Git and retain GitHub Pages hosting/DNS.

Verification

• Live RED reproduction: /docs/annotated.html returns HTTP 404 before implementation.
• Six importer tests using real tar archives and real local HTTP, plus five existing audit tests, pass.
• Producer-to-consumer integration using the actual modules passes.
• Ruff, Actionlint, whitespace checks and one primary review across both repositories pass.
• Full hosted publication and live verification will follow dependency deployment.

Depends on FastLED/dox#8 (producer must land and publish first).

Implements #9. Keep the issue open until live HTTP 200, navigation/search/assets, unchanged checks, durable retrieval and same-tag rebuild propagation are verified. Supersedes the Vercel approach in #8 after successful rollout.

Summary by CodeRabbit

• New Features
  • Documentation is now published as part of the website, with updates checked daily and included in website deployments.
  • Publication checks verify the documentation package before it is added to the site.
• Bug Fixes
  • Documentation paths that are not available now remain on the 404 page instead of redirecting elsewhere.
• Documentation
  • Updated publishing and local verification guidance.

📝 Walkthrough

The workflow checks published documentation, imports a verified publication into the site, and deploys when its check says to deploy. It also records successful release checks on a separate branch. The site no longer redirects documentation paths to the external API reference.

Changes: Documentation publication

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Check publications and select deployment scripts/import_docs.py, scripts/test_import_docs.py, .github/workflows/jekyll-gh-pages.yml, README.md	The importer validates publication manifests and compares upstream and deployed publications. The workflow runs on a daily schedule, exposes check outputs, and gates the build on the deploy output. Tests cover invalid, missing, unchanged, and rebuilt publications.
Import documentation into the site scripts/import_docs.py, scripts/test_import_docs.py, .github/workflows/jekyll-gh-pages.yml, 404.html, docs/index.html, .gitignore, README.md	The importer verifies and stages the publication archive under _site/docs; archive failures do not replace existing documentation. The workflow imports the checked publication before deployment. The /docs redirects were removed, and the README describes the publication and import process.
Record release checks scripts/record_check.py, scripts/test_record_check.py, .github/workflows/jekyll-gh-pages.yml	The workflow runs a release-check job with scoped write permission. The script records a snapshot on automation/release-checks when no snapshot exists within the prior 30 days. Tests cover branch creation, updates, and API errors.

Review comments at @scripts/import_docs.py:
- Around line 65-68: Update check_publication to keep fetch_manifest strict for
the upstream manifest but treat errors reading the deployed manifest as changed,
so the function still returns the upstream manifest and a true changed flag.
Update the HTTP test for an invalid current manifest to assert changed is true
instead of expecting an exception.
