Estimated code review effort: 1 (Trivial) | ~2 minutes

Change: Other

Merge Risk: Low · up to cfaa4

The documentation change is mergeable with bounded follow-up: clarify external issue references to avoid closing the wrong issue, and explain how stacked PRs should link issues during review.

Explanation

[#10053] The PR changes only the pull-requests skill. Existing normalizeLocation code strips /index.html from unmatched paths. The available evidence does not establish whether the home page renders once on initial load or whether an automated test verifies that behavior.

Resolution

Provide evidence of the initial rendering behavior at /index.html and the relevant automated test at the reviewed head.

Qualify the closing-keyword instruction for stacked PRs.

GitHub ignores closing keywords when a PR targets a non-default branch. Because stacked PRs target the lower PR’s branch, Fixes #<ISSUE-NUMBER> does not create the issue link during review. State that the keyword applies only to PRs targeting the default branch, and instruct maintainers to link stacked PRs manually or add the keyword after rebasing.
