Research direction

Start by locating the how-to page for linked files and review the current screenshot and Autolink explanation. Clarify whether Autolink applies only to the current directory or also subdirectories, explain which option is the default, and replace the screenshot. Done means the checklist points are addressed and the resulting instructions match the UI.
