Description

Context

After the content migration sprints, a systematic comparison of all upstream sources against written docs is needed to find what's missing or outdated.

Steps

  1. List all portal source pages in .sources/portal/docs/
  2. Map each to its corresponding page in docs/ (use migration-plan.md as a starting point)
  3. For pages that exist in portal but not in docs: evaluate if they belong (some portal content is not relevant for the rewrite)
  4. For pages that exist in docs: spot-check for staleness against .sources/ upstream content
  5. File individual issues for any meaningful gaps discovered
  6. Update .docs-plan/migration-plan.md with gap findings

Output

A structured report in .docs-plan/ (or as a GitHub issue comment) listing gaps and their priority.

Research direction

Start with the portal source pages in .sources/portal/docs/, the existing docs/ tree, and .docs-plan/migration-plan.md. Map source pages to documentation pages, assess relevance and staleness, then record prioritized gaps in a structured report under .docs-plan/ or an issue comment. Done means meaningful gaps are documented and individual issues are filed for them.
