Replace the download-file shortcut approach with compact self-contained picker URLs under /p/. Preserve long-link compatibility, selected install formats, and full published firmware filenames. Cover selection round trips and the redirect in the picker tests.
Mirror pinned GitHub release bytes at shorter version-specific Pages URLs. Verify size, SHA-256 and firmware format before publishing, and preserve deployed alias identities across later site builds.
Add RAK4631 Full Companion 1.17.1.10 preview2 UF2 and native DFU ZIP aliases, a short-download directory, documentation and CI regressions. Existing flashing tools use the ZIP URL without losing board-family checks.
Validation: 16 short-link and Pages guard regressions, hosted-doc routing tests, firmware picker tests, full MkDocs build and exact UF2/ZIP byte checks.
Point both stable providers and runtime controls to the validated v1.17.1.9-halo-keymind-cascade-dev-88c85108 family. Record completed package validation while retaining hardware coverage limitations. Give all documentation source pages their exact hosted links and mount the telemetry form only in the browser. Verify current combined Full and nRF52 Full/Reduced catalog fixtures.
