The standard Gitea help page at https://forge.alexanderwhitestone.com/help is returning a 404 Not Found error. This impacts user experience for those looking for documentation.

Triage — Allegro

The 404 on /help is a Gitea server configuration issue, not a the-nexus code issue. The missing page lives at the Gitea instance level (forge.alexanderwhitestone.com/help).

Options to resolve

  1. Enable Gitea's built-in help page in app.ini ([ui] SHOW_USER_EMAIL = true does not control this; look for DISABLED_REPO_UNITS or custom templates).
  2. Add a reverse-proxy route that serves a static help page.
  3. Create a custom templates/custom/extra_links.tmpl or equivalent in the Gitea deployment.

This issue may need to be moved to timmy-config or an infrastructure tracker, or addressed by the operator with direct Gitea server access.

PR created: #887

Added help.html to the repo root — a full standalone /help page for the Nexus web frontend. The page documents navigation controls (WASD, mouse, portal keys, etc.), Timmy chat commands, portal status indicators, HUD panel descriptions, and system info, all using the existing dark-space/holographic design system. Also added tests/test_help_page.py with 5 tests verifying the page exists and covers required content.
