docs(site): add inline code spans to generated Starlight pages
Function doc-headers are authored as plain text -- `config-help`,
`funcsave` and anyone opening the `.fish` file read them as-is -- so they
carry no backticks. The site inherited that and rendered `-a/--all` and
`__fish_config_op_aliases` as ordinary prose.

docs/codespans.py adds the spans at render time, as the last step of
prettify(), so only the site sees them; build_concat() (man page,
config-help) is byte-for-byte unchanged.

Recognised shapes: flags and flag pairs, `$vars`, SCREAMING_SNAKE env
vars, snake_case identifiers, paths and filenames, key chords, command
shadow chains (`ls->eza`), runs of tool names, whole command lines in a
table column of command lines, and known command names -- drawn from the
`_fdc_*` catalog in functions/_fish_deps_catalog.fish, the functions/
listing, and a standard-command list, minus the names that also read as
English.

Fenced blocks, existing code spans, headings, link targets, URLs,
component markup and <FileTree> bodies are passed through untouched, and
every rule bails out rather than guess.

# fish-config docs site
[Starlight](https://starlight.astro.build) site for the
[fish-config](https://git.rootiest.dev/rootiest/fish-config) manual.
## Generated, not authored
Everything under `src/content/docs/` is generated — **do not edit it
directly**, changes will be overwritten. The sources are:
- `docs/manual/**` — prose for every section except the functions reference
- `functions/*.fish` comment headers — the functions reference (Section 5)
Regenerate from the repo root:
```fish title="regenerate the site content"
python3 docs/build-manual.py --site
```
`docs/verify-manual.py` validates both sources before you build; run it
first if you've touched a header or a manual page.
## Inline code spans
Function headers are read as plain text (by `config-help`, by `funcsave`,
by anyone opening the `.fish` file), so they're authored without backticks
— `-a/--all`, not `` `-a`/`--all` ``. `docs/codespans.py` puts the
backticks on at render time, as the last step of `prettify()`, so only the
site sees them.
It recognises flags, `$vars`, `SCREAMING_SNAKE` env vars, snake_case
identifiers (`__fish_config_op_aliases`, `fish_greeting`), paths and
filenames, key chords (`Ctrl-R`), shadow chains (`ls->eza`), runs of tool
names (`btop, dust, duf, …`), whole command lines in a table column of
command lines, and command names it knows — the `_fdc_*` catalog in
`functions/_fish_deps_catalog.fish`, the `functions/` directory listing,
and a standard-command list in the module.
Names that also read as English (`find`, `top`, `screen`) are listed in
`AMBIGUOUS_COMMANDS` and are never wrapped on sight; they still count
where position already proves they're a command. Add to that list rather
than removing a rule if a wrap ever reads wrong.
Fenced blocks, existing code spans, headings, link targets, URLs,
component markup, and `<FileTree>` bodies are never touched. Leaving a
token alone is always the safe outcome, so every rule bails out when it
isn't sure.
## llms.txt
The [`starlight-llms-txt`](https://www.npmjs.com/package/starlight-llms-txt)
plugin emits `llms.txt`, `llms-full.txt`, and `llms-small.txt` alongside the
built pages — no configuration needed, it just walks the generated content.
## Icons
[`starlight-plugin-icons`](https://docs.rettend.me/starlight-plugin-icons)
+ [UnoCSS](https://unocss.dev) (`uno.config.ts`) render icons from any
[Iconify](https://icones.js.org) set as `i-<collection>:<name>` classes.
The Gitea link in the header uses it (see
`src/components/starlight/SocialIcons.astro`) to show the real Gitea logo
instead of Starlight's generic `code-branch` icon. Sidebar (`sidebar:
true`) and codeblock (`codeblock: true`) icon support are wired up in
`astro.config.mjs` but unused so far — see the plugin docs for the
`icon:` sidebar syntax if you want to add them.
## Development
```fish title="local dev server"
cd docs/site
npm install
npm run dev
```
## Deploy
Built and deployed to Cloudflare Pages by the Gitea Actions workflow on
every push to `main` — there's no manual deploy step.
