Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to This change automates error-code documentation updates, but the current version can skip regeneration under some deployment configurations and publishes several known documentation inaccuracies, including malformed formatting and an incorrect parameter reference.

Add an independent trigger for error-code generation
build-code-samples reads run_openapi_automation from docs.json and defaults it to false. The checked-in docs.json has no such key, so generate-and-check-mintlify-openapi is skipped and npm run generate-error-codes never runs. A release can therefore update assets/open-api/meilisearch-error-codes.json without updating reference/errors/error_codes.mdx.

At Lines 107-112, each link label contains an unmatched backtick before filter.*. The generated error-code page will show malformed link labels. Add the closing backtick before each ].

| The [`matchingStrategy`](/reference/api/search/search-with-post#body-matching-strategy) parameter is invalid. It should either be set to `last` or `all`. | ||

Correct the vector parameter link.
The vector link points to #body-media. It sends readers to the wrong parameter. Link it to #body-vector-one-of-0.

Description
Fixes the recurrent staleness of error codes in the docs (internal Linear issue) by fetching a new asset from Meilisearch releases and generating the
/reference/errors/error_codes.mdxfile from this information.meilisearch/meilisearch#6609 generates a new
meilisearch-error-codes.jsonasset, that will be published on Meilisearch releases.This PR fetches this asset using the same mechanism used to fetch the OpenAPI file, then generates the mdx file at the proper location with a new script.
While this PR can already be reviewed, it would be best to land it after the first release containing the new asset is published.
Any change made to this PR description by CodeRabbit was done without the consent of the author of this PR.
