📄 Description

Summary

This corrects four statements in the contributor docs, the user docs and the website that no longer match the code or the hosted site. Each one is a one-line or one-paragraph fix. They're grouped because they're all small factual corrections with no code changes. No issue is linked because these are small, self-contained corrections.

Problem and expected behavior

File Stated Actual
CONTRIBUTING.md "one-shot CLI logging is opt-in on stdout" src/logger.ts createLogger writes every mode to pino.destination({ dest: 2 }). Since 00c187e3, CLI logs go to stderr so --json stdout stays parseable.
website/public/get-started/index.html Ghidra needs a JDK "on Linux x64 or macOS x64/arm64" GhidraInstallation.ts maps linux: { x64, arm64 }, and Linux arm64 shipped in 6.1.0. docs/installation.md and docs/native-investigation.md already say "Linux x64/arm64".
website/public/guides/browser/index.html "The hosted example's request path includes the site's /rea/ prefix." The guide's start URL is https://rea.tools/examples/notes-web/. There, the request is GET /examples/notes-web/notes.json, which is exactly what the evidence table above the caption shows. The /rea/ prefix applies only to the GitHub Pages mirror.
docs/javascript-application-workflows.md "All five CLI commands accept inline JSON or a path to a JSON file" The same page lists six tools. inspect-analysis-view (#1180) was added after this sentence was written, and all six --help texts say "Inline workflow JSON or JSON file path".

Change and scope

  • CONTRIBUTING.md: state that logs go to stderr in both modes.
  • Get started page: "Linux x64/arm64". Windows is left out because this provider card's commands are macOS/Linux shell.
  • Browser guide: remove the stale caption. The table already shows the real path.
  • JavaScript workflows doc: "five" becomes "six".

No other wording changes.

Contract and boundary impact

  • Semantic owner and earliest changed stage: documentation and website copy only
  • CLI and MCP/tool-catalog contract: none
  • Provider, bridge, target-format, or platform compatibility: documentation now matches existing Ghidra host support; no behavior change
  • Evidence, artifact, provenance, or reconstruction contract: none
  • Process execution, authorization, cleanup, or containment impact: none
  • Generated metadata, package, or installation impact: none

Evidence and regression coverage

  • Tests added or updated: none; this PR changes documentation only.
  • Base reproduction / evidence:
    • REA_LOG_LEVEL=info rea providers --json >out 2>err gives 0 log records on stdout and 1 ("mode":"cli") on stderr.
    • curl -o /dev/null -w '%{http_code}' https://rea.tools/examples/notes-web/notes.json returns 200.
    • curl -o /dev/null -w '%{http_code}' https://rea.tools/rea/examples/notes-web/notes.json returns 404.
    • rea <command> --help for all six JavaScript workflow commands contains "JSON file path".
  • Remaining proof gaps: I did not deploy or preview the website on Cloudflare; I checked it locally only, as below.

Validation performed

All commands ran on macOS (arm64) with Node 24.18.0 and Python 3.12:

  • python3 scripts/prepare-website.py, then python3 scripts/verify-website.py: 17 HTML pages and 343 local references verified. Preparing changed no tracked files.
  • python3 scripts/test-website.py: 2 tests OK.
  • npm run check: passed, including format:check.
  • npm run docs:check: passed.
  • npm run docs:build: built successfully.

Compatibility, safety, and release

  • Breaking changes or migration steps: none
  • Real Hopper/Ghidra, browser, or OS coverage: not applicable
  • Package or release metadata impact: none
  • Security, privacy, process, or containment review: none

Review checklist

  • This PR addresses a concrete problem or an agreed enhancement.
  • The PR has one focused outcome and the title follows type(scope): outcome.
  • Related issue is linked, or the reason for not linking one is stated above.
  • Tests cover changed observable behavior and meaningful failure paths.
  • Owning docs, contracts, and generated metadata are updated where needed.
  • User-visible CLI/MCP changes include representative output.
  • I checked the final diff for secrets, unrelated cleanup, and unsupported claims.
