# lychee external-link checker config (see .github/workflows/links.yml).
# Only http(s) URLs are checked; relative/internal links are skipped via the
# scheme filter and --root-dir resolution. Loopback and private addresses are
# skipped too.

retry_wait_time = 2
timeout = 20

# Treat these as success: OK, partial content, and rate-limited (transient).

scheme = ["https", "http"]
exclude_all_private = true

# Known false positives (the URLs are valid; lychee just can't verify them at
# check time):
# - crates.io and npmjs.com return 403/404 to non-browser requests
#   (anti-scraping); the package pages are live in a browser.
# - GitHub serves 404 for /stargazers and /network/members to anonymous clients
#   (anti-scraping). The README social-footer badges link there; the pages are
#   live in a browser.
# - the CHANGELOG version-compare links point at the release tag that is created
#   *after* the bump is merged. ci.yml runs on push/PR (never on the tag), so the
#   tag never exists when lychee runs and the compare URL 404s. One pattern
#   covers every future version — no per-release exclude needed.
