Summary

/learn/docs/getting-started/overview returns a 404 in production even though a redirect to /learn/docs/getting-started/capabilities already exists in fern/docs.yml (added with the capabilities page in #6556).

The one anomaly in the redirect list is a redirect chain: /learn/docs/alternatives/mintlify pointed at /learn/docs/getting-started/overview, which is itself a redirect source. It is the only chained entry in the file, and both URLs in the chain 404 while every other redirect I spot-checked resolves correctly (/learn/docs/getting-started/global-configuration, /learn/docs/getting-started/publish-your-docs, /learn/welcome, etc. all 308 as expected). Fern's redirect docs also call for pointing every source in a chain directly at the final destination.

This changes the mintlify redirect to point straight at /learn/docs/getting-started/capabilities, removing the chain so the overview redirect can resolve.

fern check: 0 errors.
