Description

In rstudio it seems now there is an option to use air as default

Image

but the documentation still says to set up as external formatter:
https://posit-dev.github.io/air/editor-rstudio.html

I presume the docs are not updated.

Research direction

Start with the RStudio documentation at https://posit-dev.github.io/air/editor-rstudio.html and compare its external-formatter instructions with the default-option shown in the issue image. Update the documentation to reflect the current RStudio setup, then verify that the page no longer describes the outdated configuration.
