-## Run all generated reference docs
-
-Load the repo's `direnv` / `nix` shell first, then rerun all generated reference-doc wrappers in one command. The wrappers also re-exec through the docs repo shell themselves, so they do not pick up a local `x2mdx` checkout from ambient `PATH`:
-```bash
-direnv allow
-python3 scripts/generate_all_reference_docs.py

+## Local Development
-Use `--dry-run` to print the exact per-step commands without executing them.
+### Prerequisites
-### Generate the Canton Metrics reference
+Either:
-The Canton Metrics page is generated from the Canton release docs build rather than from protobuf files. The generator resolves the latest `DACH-NY/canton` GitHub release tag, checks out that Canton source tag under `.internal/cache/canton-metrics-reference/`, runs Canton's release bundle plus generated-include tasks, resolves the metrics RST template with the generated metric includes, converts it to MDX, and records the source release in the generated page comment.

-
-Source rules:
-
-| Dashboard entry | Sourcing rule |
-| --- | --- |
-| `Splice` | Read from the network `/info` endpoint: MainNet `https://docs.global.canton.network.sync.global/info`, TestNet `https://docs.test.global.canton.network.sync.global/info`, DevNet `https://docs.dev.global.canton.network.sync.global/info`. Cross-check against the same network's `/index.html` Docker image tag and Helm chart version. |
-| `Canton` | Read the network Splice version from `/info`, derive the matching `canton-network/splice` release-line branch, then read `version` from `nix/canton-sources.json`. The config key is still `damlSdk` for compatibility with the existing dashboard component. |
-| `Daml SDK installer` | Do not use legacy `https://get.daml.com/`; that is the old 2.x Daml assistant path. For Daml 3 / DPM, install DPM with `curl https://get.digitalasset.com/install/install.sh | sh`, then use `dpm install latest`. The latest stable SDK version is exposed at `https://get.digitalasset.com/install/latest`. |
-| `PQS` | Read the latest stable semver tag from the public Artifact Registry image `europe-docker.pkg.dev/da-images/public/docker/participant-query-store`. |
-| `Token Standard` | Read from the npm `latest` dist-tag for `@canton-network/core-token-standard`. |
-| `Wallet SDK` | Read from the npm `latest` dist-tag for `@canton-network/wallet-sdk`. |
-| `dApp SDK` | Read from the npm `latest` dist-tag for `@canton-network/dapp-sdk`. |
-| `Wallet Gateway` | Read the latest stable `@canton-network/wallet-gateway-remote` release from `hyperledger-labs/splice-wallet-kernel` GitHub releases. |
-| `Min Protocol Version` | Keep as manual/fallback until a public live source is available. |
-| `Migration ID` | Read from `synchronizer.active.migration_id` on the network's `/info` endpoint and validate against `sv.migration_id`. |
-| `Splice DAR Versions` | Read the latest stable package rows for `splice-amulet`, `splice-wallet`, and `splice-dso-governance` from the observed Splice release-line `daml/dars.lock`. |
-| `Release Notes` | Link to the observed Splice release. |
-| `Primary Scan API` | Static canonical `scan.sv-1...` endpoint for each network. |

## Generate external snippets
External snippet extraction from source repositories is documented in [config/snippet-config/update-workflows.md](config/snippet-config/update-workflows.md). Use that workflow when updating snippet configs under `config/snippet-config/` or regenerating checked-in snippets under `docs-main/snippets/external/`.
+Run this whenever you add, remove, or update a snippet source in `config/snippet-config/`, or when you need to pull in changes from an upstream repo (such as Canton or Splice) that are referenced by existing snippets.
+
```bash
npm run generate:external-snippets -- --list
npm run generate:external-snippets -- canton --source-dir ../canton
```
-## Generate the JSON API reference
-
-This repo includes a checked-in source config for the Ledger API OpenAPI bundle inputs under `config/x2mdx/ledger-api/source-artifacts.json`.
-The generator script refreshes the latest configured `openapi.yaml` from the Canton release bundle into the docs tree and rewires `docs-main/docs.json` so Mintlify renders the JSON API reference natively:
-
-```bash
-python3 scripts/generate_json_api_reference.py
-```
-
-or:
-
-```bash
-npm run generate:json-api-reference
-```
-
-By default this writes:
-
-- `docs-main/openapi/json-ledger-api/openapi.yaml`
-- `docs-main/docs.json`
-
-The generated nav is published under `API Reference -> Ledger API -> OpenAPI`, using Mintlify's native generated endpoint pages under `reference/json-api-reference`. The legacy checked-in MDX page at `docs-main/reference/json-api-reference.mdx` is removed by the generator.
-

-
-Run:
-
-```bash
-python3 scripts/generate_ledger_bindings_api_reference.py
-```
-

-
-## Generate the Canton protobuf history reference
-
-This repo also includes a checked-in source config for Canton release-bundle protobuf inputs at `config/x2mdx/protobuf-history/source-artifacts.json`.
-The generator script discovers stable Canton versions from the source repo tags, downloads the matching `canton-open-source-.tar.gz` bundles from `canton.io/releases`, extracts the published `protobuf/` tree under `.internal/cache/x2mdx/protobuf-history/`, compiles local descriptor images with `grpc_tools.protoc`, writes a local x2mdx manifest into `.internal/generated/x2mdx/protobuf-history/manifest.json`, and then renders MDX pages through the docs repo `direnv` / `nix` shell.
-
-Run:
-
-```bash
-python3 scripts/generate_canton_protobuf_history.py
-```
-
-or:
-
-```bash
-npm run generate:canton-protobuf-history
-```
-
-By default this writes:
-
-- `docs-main/appdev/reference/protobuf-history/`
-- `docs-main/docs.json`
-
-The generated nav is added under the top-level `API Reference` dropdown as `Canton Protobuf History`, with only the overview page listed in nav. The per-endpoint pages are generated and linked from the overview page but left unlisted.
-
-## Generate the gRPC Ledger API reference
-
-This repo also includes a checked-in source config for the Ledger API gRPC protobuf surface at `config/x2mdx/grpc-ledger-api-reference/source-artifacts.json`.
-The generator script reuses the published Canton release-bundle protobuf acquisition flow, filters the resulting protobuf report to `com.daml.ledger.api.v2*`, and writes a dedicated Ledger API-only MDX surface without modifying `x2mdx`.
-
-Run:
-
-```bash

-```
-
-## Generate the Splice Mintlify OpenAPI specs
-
-This repo also includes a dedicated wrapper that fetches the configured Splice OpenAPI specs from published decentralized-canton-sync `*_openapi.tar.gz` release bundles and writes the managed source files under `docs-main/openapi/splice/`, so Mintlify can render them natively. The wrapper only updates `docs-main/docs.json` for specs listed in `config/mintlify-openapi/splice-openapi/source-artifacts.json` under `enabled_nav_specs`.
-
-Run:
-
-```bash
-python3 scripts/generate_splice_mintlify_openapi.py
-```
-
-or:
-
-```bash
-npm run generate:splice-mintlify-openapi
-```
-
-By default this writes:
-
-- `docs-main/openapi/splice/`
-- `docs-main/docs.json` only when one or more specs are enabled in `enabled_nav_specs`
-
-Enabled specs are added under the top-level `API Reference` dropdown as `Splice APIs`, with Mintlify-rendered OpenAPI entries grouped under `Scan APIs`, `Validator APIs`, and `Token Standard APIs`.
