What

Full audit of every vercel.com link in docs/content (20 unique URLs, validated by HTTP status and anchor-fragment presence in page content):

Problem Links Fix
Dead anchor#regions no longer exists on /docs/project-configuration (content split into subpages) /docs/project-configuration/vercel-json#regions (anchor verified live)
Hard 404/docs/gateway/api-reference/overview (AI Gateway docs restructured) /docs/ai-gateway/authentication (the "get an API key" context)
Stale redirect/docs/observability/otel-overview /docs/tracing/instrumentation (the redirect target)
Stale redirect/docs/workflow + /docs/workflow/python (singular → plural rename) /docs/workflows / /docs/workflows/python (also drops a redundant ?language=py the redirect discards)

All remaining links verified 200 with live anchors (queues + #consumer-function-security, workflows/pricing#storage-retention, plans/hobby, limits, regions, sandbox, cli/project-linking, audit-log, home, help, blog).

Prompted by a report that the vercel.json regions link in the new multi-region docs pointed at the wrong page.

Audited every vercel.com link in docs/content (20 unique URLs,
HTTP-validated including anchor fragments):

- project-configuration#regions (2x): the #regions anchor no longer
  exists on that page — content moved to the vercel-json subpage; now
  links project-configuration/vercel-json#regions
- gateway/api-reference/overview (2x): hard 404; the AI Gateway docs
  restructured — 'get an API key' context now points at
  ai-gateway/authentication
- observability/otel-overview (1x): redirects to
  tracing/instrumentation; link the final URL
- docs/workflow and docs/workflow/python (8x): redirect to the plural
  docs/workflows paths; link the final URLs (also drops a redundant
  ?language=py param that the redirect discards)

All other links (queues, queues/pricing + anchors, plans/hobby,
limits, regions, sandbox, workflows/pricing#storage-retention,
cli/project-linking, audit-log, home, help, blog) verified 200 with
live anchors.
