Summary

  • publish v5.1.0 as the shared release for both Alpha V5 and Testnet across developer and network/operator documentation
  • configure both mainnet and testnet selectors to resolve to the same v5.1.0 snapshot, rendering Alpha / Testnet (v5.1.0)
  • remove the deprecated v5.0.1 developer and network snapshots
  • regenerate the v5.1.0 Aztec, wallet, operator, Node JSON-RPC, Aztec.nr, and TypeScript API references
  • provide identical generated API artifacts under the stable mainnet and testnet paths, with the shared snapshot using the canonical mainnet paths
  • refresh Testnet network metadata from https://v5.testnet.rpc.aztec-labs.com and checksum the documented Sepolia addresses
  • carry forward release-valid documentation fixes and role-based operator structure while resolving code snippets against the v5.1.0 tag

Release details

The Testnet RPC still reports node version 5.0.0, so this uses the requested pre-release workflow for the tagged v5.1.0 upgrade. The RPC-confirmed Testnet L1 deployment, chain ID (11155111), and rollup version (1821665230) remain unchanged. Alpha V5 retains its existing deployment metadata while its documentation version advances to the same v5.1.0 release.

Canonical Testnet L2 values are derived from the v5.1.0 tooling where the pre-upgrade RPC differs:

  • MultiCall Entrypoint: 0x246d60af8b79a5dceece7d2388921203401c0df02ce674c5781c6c2162922986
  • Sponsored FPC: 0x130925fbd734a252e3d8ddff87f6c346052dd5c13314eb96026b32baa1923296

The Sponsored FPC address changed from the previous docs and must be funded for Testnet use. Alpha V5 continues to document Sponsored FPC as not deployed.

Validation

  • MAINNET_TAG=5.1.0 TESTNET_TAG=5.1.0 RELEASE_TYPE=mainnet COMMIT_TAG=v5.1.0 yarn build
    • CSpell: 0 issues
    • redirect targets: valid
    • Docusaurus production build: successful
    • developer and operator pages render Alpha / Testnet (v5.1.0)
  • yarn validate:api-ref-links
    • 112 API links checked
    • 0 broken links
    • 0 version mismatches
  • generated mainnet and testnet Aztec.nr and TypeScript API directories are byte-identical
  • new versioned snapshots contain no unresolved release/include macros
  • version configs and version lists contain one shared v5.1.0 snapshot for both Alpha V5 and Testnet

The build retains existing non-fatal broken-anchor warnings from generated CLI aliases and operator compose-page anchors.

## Summary

- publish `v5.1.0` as the shared release for both **Alpha V5** and **Testnet** across developer and network/operator documentation
- configure both `mainnet` and `testnet` selectors to resolve to the same `v5.1.0` snapshot, rendering `Alpha / Testnet (v5.1.0)`
- remove the deprecated `v5.0.1` developer and network snapshots
- regenerate the v5.1.0 Aztec, wallet, operator, Node JSON-RPC, Aztec.nr, and TypeScript API references
- provide identical generated API artifacts under the stable `mainnet` and `testnet` paths, with the shared snapshot using the canonical `mainnet` paths
- refresh Testnet network metadata from `https://v5.testnet.rpc.aztec-labs.com` and checksum the documented Sepolia addresses
- carry forward release-valid documentation fixes and role-based operator structure while resolving code snippets against the `v5.1.0` tag

## Summary

- replace the stale `v5.1.0` network sidebar snapshot with the current
role-based operator sidebar from `docs/sidebars-operate.js`
- confirm the current and versioned operator docs already contain the
same 83-file role-based documentation tree from
[aztec-packages#24219](AztecProtocol#24219)
- update both release-doc skills so post-tag docs reconciliation
includes matching sidebar changes and a semantic consistency check

## Root cause

[aztec-packages#25085](AztecProtocol#25085)
generated the sidebar from the pre-backport `v5.1.0` tag, then carried
the current operator pages into the released snapshot without updating
the versioned sidebar. The build passed because the legacy pages
referenced by the stale sidebar still existed.

## Validation

- `docs/sidebars-operate.js` and
`docs/network_versioned_sidebars/version-v5.1.0-sidebars.json` are
deeply equal
- current and versioned operator docs contain the same 83 paths
- `MAINNET_TAG=5.1.0 TESTNET_TAG=5.1.0 RELEASE_TYPE=mainnet
COMMIT_TAG=v5.1.0 yarn build`
  - CSpell: 0 issues
  - redirects: valid
  - 112 API links checked
  - 0 broken links
  - 0 version mismatches
- both `/operate/operators` and `/operate/alpha/operators` render Guided
setup, Full node, Solo sequencer, Staking provider, and Operator tooling

The build retains the existing non-fatal generated CLI and compose-page
anchor warnings.
