What changed

Spacefast is never described with the word "hosting" (rule from batuhan, Nov 11 2026).

• content/api/errors.mdx: provider_job_failed and provider_job_timeout rows say "provider job".
• content/(serve)/domains.mdx: "hosting check" is now "serving check".
• content/platforms/partner-api/configuration.mdx: example presentation name "Example Hosting" is now "Example Cloud".
• Vale: new styles/Spacefast/Hosting.yml makes whole-word "hosting" an error. It replaces HostingProvider.yml, which only banned "the hosting provider". STYLE_GUIDE.md and AGENTS.md describe the new rule.
• verify:prose passes locally with Vale 3.17.1 (990 pages, 2872 OpenAPI prose fields).

Kept for now (exempt from the rule)

• generated/ is a verified snapshot synced from spacefast/monorepo, so it is not hand-edited. Its error pages, OpenAPI descriptions and shipped changelog still contain "hosting". .vale.ini exempts content/(reference)/errors/** and the OpenAPI prose extraction, and the existing changelog carve-out also skips the rule, so CI stays green.

Follow-ups

• Merge the parallel monorepo PR (error docs, OpenAPI descriptions, CLI --hosting-kind), refresh generated/, then delete the two exemptions in .vale.ini marked for removal. Changelog history stays exempt.
• node --test scripts/*.test.mjs has 13 failures with and without this change (they need a built site); CI runs them after the build.

Before / after behavior

• observed — Modified behavior in AGENTS.md: The Vale rules replace the specific prohibition on “the hosting provider” with a ban on “hosting” in prose, list replacement terms, and exempt generated error pages, OpenAPI prose, and the shipped changelog until the generated snapshot is refreshed.
• observed — Modified behavior in STYLE_GUIDE.md: The guidance replaces the ban on calling Spacefast’s infrastructure “the hosting provider” with a ban on using “hosting” for Spacefast or its features, and lists preferred alternatives.
• observed — Modified behavior in content/(serve)/domains.mdx: The preflight description changes the check compared with adding a domain from “hosting” to “serving”; its validation, advisory verdict, and stated outcomes are unchanged.
• observed — Modified behavior in content/api/errors.mdx: The provider_job_failed and provider_job_timeout descriptions change from “hosting-provider job” to “provider job.”

Explanation

The title "Stop describing Spacefast with the word hosting" states the main change: the PR bans the word "hosting" when describing Spacefast. The changeset matches this. It adds the Vale rule styles/Spacefast/Hosting.yml, removes HostingProvider.yml, updates STYLE_GUIDE.md and AGENTS.md, and rewords domains.mdx, errors.mdx, and configuration.mdx to drop "hosting" in favor of "serving", "provider job", and "Example Cloud". The title is short, specific, and free of file lists or vague terms.
