Summary

Syncs Spanish, French, and Chinese pages with English changes merged between 2026-08-26 and 2026-09-02, adds the missing translations of a new help-center page, and confirms zero orphaned translated pages and full redirect parity.

Step 0: Orphan reconciliation

Walked every es/**, fr/**, and zh/** MDX file and asserted an English source exists at the mirrored path. No orphans found. (The most recent orphan cleanups landed in #7160 on 2026-08-27 and #7141 on 2026-08-27, both with locale redirects already in place.)

Changes

Missing translations (flagged as missing, created here because translated content now links to them)

help-center/branch-missing-from-editor-branch-list (new English page, 2026-08-31, #7171) had no es/fr/zh counterpart, and the new paragraph in guides/branches links to it. Created all three translations and added them to es.json, fr.json, and zh.json navigation in the same position as the English nav.

Spanish (most stale first)

Page Last English update What was translated
es/guides/branches 2026-08-31 (#7171) New paragraph explaining which branches the editor dropdown lists, with link to the new help-center page
es/ai/skillmd 2026-08-26 (#7128) Added missing PreviewButton import (build defect), split spec sentence, expanded first "MCP" mention to "Model Context Protocol (MCP)"
es/api/static-export/overview, start-job, get-job-status 2026-08-27 (#7162) Info callout now says "para solicitar acceso" (was "para más información"), matching "to request access"
es/changelog 2026-08-28 (#7169) Added translated August 28, 2026 entry; fixed old mistranslation "parámetros de búsqueda del usuario" → "parámetros de consulta" (English typo fix in #7128)
es/assistant/configure 2026-08-31 (#7198) Removed dropped sentence "No extra widget configuration is required"; reworded JavaScript-domains bullet to name the assistant as the actor
es/credits 2026-09-01 (#7221) "facturamos"/"prorrateamos" → "Mintlify factura"/"Mintlify prorratea" (we → Mintlify voice fix)

No action needed (English-only style fixes, verified by diff)

ai/llmstxt (typo "ins't"), api-playground/openapi-setup (sentence split), editor/index, editor/pages (double space), editor/review, deploy/ghes (heading case, bullet punctuation), deploy/preview-deployments (passive-voice rewording), quickstart (card title typo not present in translations), integrations/analytics/clarity (period placement), guides/git-concepts ("GitHub Desktop" casing not present in translations), zh/help-center/preview-deployment-not-created-for-fork-branch (sentence split). Pages changed in-window whose translations were already current (e.g. ai/bring-your-own-model, automations/*, editor/settings, dashboard/roles) required no work.

Redirect parity

Audited all 119 English redirects in redirects.json against git history for each locale. In-window redirect additions (#7141, #7160) already include es/fr/zh variants. Remaining English-only redirects (/content/components/*, /api-reference bare route, /optimize/analytics/* wildcard, /zh/workflows/*) correspond to translated routes that never existed, so no locale redirects were added. No verified gaps; no redirects changed.

Validation

mint validate and mint broken-links both pass.


Note

Low Risk
Documentation and translation-only updates with no application code, auth, or billing logic changes.

Overview
Brings Spanish, French, and Chinese docs in line with recent English changes and adds a missing localized help article.

New help-center page branch-missing-from-editor-branch-list is translated in all three locales, registered in es.json / fr.json / zh.json, and linked from the updated branches guide paragraph about which branches appear in the web editor dropdown.

Per-locale copy updates mirror English edits: skill.md (missing PreviewButton import, wording, first “MCP” spelled out as Model Context Protocol), static export API info callouts (“request access”), Aug 28, 2026 changelog block, assistant configure (dropped extra widget sentence; search-domain limitation phrased as assistant behavior), and credits (Mintlify as billing actor). Spanish changelog also fixes an old “query parameters” mistranslation.
