The front matter sets last_updated: "2025-04-03", which appears inconsistent with this being a newly added topic (and is the only last_updated field in the repo). This can mislead readers and may be ignored by the docs pipeline if the field isn’t supported. Consider either removing last_updated entirely to match existing topic metadata, or updating it to the actual publish/update date and standardizing the field across the docs if it’s intended to be used.
