fix(website): cross-locale doc links + drop empty ko locale (#31895)
The locale switcher appeared broken because hardcoded markdown links
(`](/docs/X)`) got double-prefixed by Docusaurus to `/docs/<locale>/docs/X`
(404) in non-English locales, and the MDX hero `<a href>` on the index
page escaped locale routing entirely.

Changes:
- Rewrite 922 `](/docs/X)` -> `](/X)` across 166 docs files (strip trailing
  .md too). Docusaurus prepends locale + baseUrl itself.
- docs/index.md -> index.mdx; hero "Get Started" anchor -> Docusaurus
  <Link> so it stays inside the active locale.
- Drop `ko` locale entirely from docusaurus.config.ts + delete i18n/ko/
  (4 stale auto-translated kanban pages, <2% coverage, misleading).

Verified `npm run build` succeeds for both en and zh-Hans; `build/zh-Hans/
index.html` has no /docs/zh-Hans/docs/... double-prefixed paths.

PR2 will translate the 335 English docs into i18n/zh-Hans/.

# Codebase Inspection with pygount
Analyze repositories for lines of code, language breakdown, file counts, and code-vs-comment ratios using `pygount`.
## When to Use
- User asks for LOC (lines of code) count
- User wants a language breakdown of a repo
- User asks about codebase size or composition
- User wants code-vs-comment ratios
- General "how big is this repo" questions
## Prerequisites
```bash
pip install --break-system-packages pygount 2>/dev/null || pip install pygount
```
## 1. Basic Summary (Most Common)
Get a full language breakdown with file counts, code lines, and comment lines:
```bash
cd /path/to/repo
pygount --format=summary \
--folders-to-skip=".git,node_modules,venv,.venv,__pycache__,.cache,dist,build,.next,.tox,.eggs,*.egg-info" \
.
```
**IMPORTANT:** Always use `--folders-to-skip` to exclude dependency/build directories, otherwise pygount will crawl them and take a very long time or hang.
## 2. Common Folder Exclusions
Adjust based on the project type:
```bash
# Python projects
--folders-to-skip=".git,venv,.venv,__pycache__,.cache,dist,build,.tox,.eggs,.mypy_cache"
# JavaScript/TypeScript projects
--folders-to-skip=".git,node_modules,dist,build,.next,.cache,.turbo,coverage"
# General catch-all
--folders-to-skip=".git,node_modules,venv,.venv,__pycache__,.cache,dist,build,.next,.tox,vendor,third_party"
```
## 3. Filter by Specific Language
```bash
# Only count Python files
pygount --suffix=py --format=summary .
# Only count Python and YAML
pygount --suffix=py,yaml,yml --format=summary .
```
## 4. Detailed File-by-File Output
```bash
# Default format shows per-file breakdown
pygount --folders-to-skip=".git,node_modules,venv" .
# Sort by code lines (pipe through sort)
pygount --folders-to-skip=".git,node_modules,venv" . | sort -t$'\t' -k1 -nr | head -20
```
## 5. Output Formats
```bash
# Summary table (default recommendation)
pygount --format=summary .
# JSON output for programmatic use
pygount --format=json .
# Pipe-friendly: Language, file count, code, docs, empty, string
pygount --format=summary . 2>/dev/null
```
## 6. Interpreting Results
The summary table columns:
- **Language** — detected programming language
- **Files** — number of files of that language
- **Code** — lines of actual code (executable/declarative)
- **Comment** — lines that are comments or documentation
- **%** — percentage of total
Special pseudo-languages:
- `__empty__` — empty files
- `__binary__` — binary files (images, compiled, etc.)
- `__generated__` — auto-generated files (detected heuristically)
- `__duplicate__` — files with identical content
- `__unknown__` — unrecognized file types
## Pitfalls
1. **Always exclude .git, node_modules, venv** — without `--folders-to-skip`, pygount will crawl everything and may take minutes or hang on large dependency trees.
2. **Markdown shows 0 code lines** — pygount classifies all Markdown content as comments, not code. This is expected behavior.
3. **JSON files show low code counts** — pygount may count JSON lines conservatively. For accurate JSON line counts, use `wc -l` directly.
4. **Large monorepos** — for very large repos, consider using `--suffix` to target specific languages rather than scanning everything.
