**troubleshooting.ts** - New source loader that reads local MDX files
from content/troubleshooting/ directly instead of fetching from GitHub
Discussions API
- Generates correct docs paths: /guides/troubleshooting/{slug}
- Uses type = 'troubleshooting' for proper search result mapping
- Sets slug: undefined to avoid trailing # in URLs
- Checksum includes title/topics/keywords so metadata-only changes
trigger re-indexing
- Left comments for review
**index.ts** - Replaced GitHub discussion sources with local
troubleshooting sources
- Removed GitHubDiscussionLoader, fetchDiscussions,
buildGithubUrlToSlugMap imports
- Added fetchTroubleshootingSources and TroubleshootingSource
- Updated SearchSource type union
**globalSearchModel.ts** - Changed type mapping from
'github-discussions' to 'troubleshooting'
**generate-embeddings.ts** - Removed GitHub App env vars from required
list (DOCS_GITHUB_APP_ID, DOCS_GITHUB_APP_INSTALLATION_ID,
DOCS_GITHUB_APP_PRIVATE_KEY) since they're no longer needed
