 ### Landing page and navigation (low frequency, high visibility)
 - `mkdocs.yml` — nav entries should match actual files in `docs/` (the CI gate enforces this; the rule is here for awareness).
 - `docs/index.md` — landing page orchestrator; includes section bodies from `docs/landing/*.html`. If any doc file is renamed or moved, update landing fragment links in `docs/landing/`.
+- **Page frontmatter consistency** — pages within a section should share the same Material `hide:` frontmatter so the LHS navigation behaves uniformly across the section. The tutorial pages (`docs/tutorials/*.md`) all use `hide: [navigation]`; when adding a new tutorial page, copy that frontmatter so it doesn't render a stray LHS menu. Not enforced by CI — check by hand.
