Summary

Adds a new API keys page to Dashboard > Configuration and renames the prose term "Fern token" to "API key" / "API keys" across the entire docs site. All CLI commands (fern token) and CI/CD code (FERN_TOKEN) are unchanged.

New page

api-keys.mdx: covers creating API keys from the Dashboard UI, storing as CI secrets, and managing (rename/delete).

Terminology rename (22 files)

Prose references to "Fern token" / "Fern tokens" → "Fern API key" / "API key" / "API keys" depending on context. Affected areas:

  • Dashboard pages (overview card, permissions table, changelog)
  • fern-token.mdx snippet
  • Publishing pages (docs, SDKs: TypeScript, Rust, Python, Java, C#)
  • Preview changes locally, self-hosted generation
  • Self-service setup, quickstart
  • GitLab CI/CD guide
  • Ask Fern (Slack app, API getting started)
  • AI features (Writer, Markdown/LLMs)
  • CLI commands reference

Changelog

2026-06-02.mdx for the new API key management feature.


Note: Chinese translations (fern/translations/zh/) and historical CLI changelog entries were intentionally left unchanged.
