Description
Given a slightly simplified _quarto.yml:
book:
title: "quarto-design"
repo-url: https://github.com/dpastoor/quarto-design
repo-actions: [edit, issue]
chapters:
- "index.qmd"
+ - part: user-journeys.qmd
+ chapters:
+ - rsc-user-journeys.qmd
appendices:
- appendix.qmd
- - user-journeys.qmd
when making that shift, get the following:
GET: /user-journeys.html
ERROR: Book chapter 'rsc-user-journeys.qmd' not found # note then created it
GET: /user-journeys.html
the preview continues to work, but the chapter sidebar continues to render with user-journeys.qmd in the sidebar.
solution: takes exiting and restarting quarto preview to pick up the change.

Research direction
Reproduce the case using the shown _quarto.yml and the user-journeys.qmd, rsc-user-journeys.qmd, and appendix.qmd files. Start by running quarto preview, move the article from appendices to chapters, and observe the requests and sidebar. Done means the moved article renders in the chapter sidebar without requiring a preview restart or producing the chapter-not-found error.
