fix: render the German Contributing page from the maintained source

[raifdmueller]

Problem

The German Contributing page at /de/contributing is rendered from website/public/CONTRIBUTING.de.adoc. That file has not been touched since #603. Every contributor edit since then went into docs/CONTRIBUTING.de.adoc — the file that sits next to its English sibling and looks like the maintained one. Nothing rendered it.

Verified on the live site — https://llm-coding.github.io/Semantic-Anchors/de/contributing is missing:

• Artefakttypen: Anchor, Contract, Skill ([Process Proposal]: Formal Artifact Taxonomy — Anchor vs. Contract vs. Skill #585)
• Viability-Test ([Process Proposal]: Add Viability Test to contribution guidelines — recognition ≠ activation #640) and the ADR-008 topic-neutral gate
• Issue-Titel-Konvention ([Process Proposal]: Consistent issue title naming convention #564)
• Entwicklungsumgebung, PR-Review-Richtlinie, Criticism/Current Status (docs: housekeeping — sync CONTRIBUTING.md, update README and DE translation #695)

German contributors have been reading the state of #603 for months.

Fix

• scripts/render-docs.js renders docs/CONTRIBUTING.de.adoc instead of the copy under website/public/
• the stale website/public/CONTRIBUTING.de.adoc is deleted — one German source again
• five relative link: targets in both Contributing files (ADR-007, ADR-008, docs/roles/) resolved against the served route and 404'd on the website; they now use absolute GitHub URLs, which work on the site and in GitHub's rendered view
• .gitignore covers the generated CONTRIBUTING*.toc.html build artifacts, which were showing up as untracked

The client only ever fetches the rendered .html (doc-page.js:43), never the .adoc, so removing the public source is safe. The output path website/public/CONTRIBUTING.de.html is unchanged.

Verification

npm run build → ✓ pre-rendered /contributing (+ /de variant). The prerendered dist/de/contributing/index.html now carries all sections, and both ADR links resolve:

Was sind Semantic Anchors? / Artefakttypen: Anchor, Contract, Skill /
Qualitätskriterien / Testen Ihres semantischen Ankers /
Viability-Test (Liefert der Anker?) / … / Entwicklungsumgebung /
Criticism und Current Status / PR-Review-Richtlinie / Issue-Titel-Konvention / …

npm run lint clean, npm test 121/121 passing.

Note for #641

@JensGrote — #641 adds a German Viability-Test section to website/public/CONTRIBUTING.de.adoc, the file this PR deletes. docs/CONTRIBUTING.de.adoc already carries that section from #640, so once this merges that part of #641 is redundant. The rejected-proposals changes in #641 are unaffected. See my review there for the separate dead-link issue.

Warning

Review limit reached

@raifdmueller, you've reached your PR review limit, so we couldn't start this review.

Next review available in: 23 minutes

Enable usage-based reviews in Billing to review now. Otherwise, wait until the next included review is available.
You're only billed for reviews past your plan's rate limits ($0.25/file).

How can I continue?

After more reviews become available, a review can be triggered using the @coderabbitai review command as a PR comment. Alternatively, push new commits to this PR.

To avoid repeated limits, reduce automatic review volume by pausing incremental auto-reviews earlier, using label-based review opt-in, excluding WIP or generated PR titles, or requesting reviews manually when the PR is ready. If your team needs uninterrupted high-volume reviews, an organization admin can enable usage-based reviews.

How do review limits work?

CodeRabbit enforces per-developer PR review limits for each organization. Most developers receive the normal plan review availability.

For paid Pro and Pro+ PR reviews, CodeRabbit uses adaptive limits for sustained high-volume activity. When a developer's recent PR review activity reaches the 95th percentile or higher among CodeRabbit users, additional reviews become available more gradually as earlier reviews age out of the rolling window.

Please refer docs for additional details.

The failing Dependency Security Audit here is not caused by this PR — it touches only .adoc files, .gitignore and render-docs.js, no dependencies.

New advisories were published against dependency versions that have not changed. Running the same command on a clean checkout of main produces the identical result:

6 vulnerabilities (1 low, 3 moderate, 2 high)

Main's last green run is 6 days old, which is why nobody has seen it yet. Every PR opened from now on hits it.

#698 fixes it — npm audit fix without --force, package-lock.json only. All checks green there, including the audit. Once #698 is merged I will rebase this PR so its audit job re-runs.
