The link checker filed a broken-link report for two anchors in workshop/day.md pointing to workshop/README.md. Investigation shows these were false positives — the links were never broken.

Analysis

The flagged links use double-hyphen anchors:

  • README.md#curriculum--part-1-build-your-first-workflow
  • README.md#curriculum--part-2-go-deeper

Both GitHub.com's heading renderer and github-slugger (used by the workshop SPA) produce -- for the pattern (em dash surrounded by spaces): the em dash is stripped as punctuation, leaving two consecutive spaces that are each independently converted to -. The link checker's slug generation incorrectly collapsed those to a single -, producing a non-matching expected anchor.

The target headings in README.md (## Curriculum — Part 1: Build Your First Workflow, ## Curriculum — Part 2: Go Deeper) have been present since before day.md was added, and the anchors resolve correctly in both GitHub rendering and the built SPA.

No content changes were required.
