Updating content with more detailed information, cross-linking pages
when useful (primarily the new docs for tool permissions), rearranging
information architecture a bit (e.g., putting examples last and
guidelines first, putting text threads vs. threads disclaimer above
everything, etc.), removing outdated images, etc.

## Summary
- **Add category-claiming keywords** to 4 key AI doc intros (overview,
agent panel, edit prediction, configuration) so Google associates these
pages with "AI code editor" search terms
- **Expand AI overview into a pillar page** with substantive feature
summaries and a "How Zed approaches AI" differentiation section (open
source, native performance, multi-model, external agents, privacy)
- **Improve internal linking** across 11 files to strengthen the AI
topic cluster
## Internal linking changes
**Inbound links (non-AI docs → AI section):**
- `editing-code.md` → AI overview
- `terminal.md` → Inline Assistant + Agent Panel
- `configuring-zed.md` → AI Configuration
- `remote-development.md` → AI overview
**Fix orphans within AI section:**
- `billing.md` linked to subscription + plans (was orphaned with zero
internal links)
- `tools.md`, `rules.md`, `llm-providers.md`, `tool-permissions.md`,
`models.md` all now cross-link to related AI pages
**Outbound:**
- `overview.md` → `zed.dev/ai` and `getting-started.md`
## Test plan
- [ ] `mdbook build docs` succeeds
- [ ] Spot-check links resolve correctly in built output
- [ ] Review overview.md content for docs voice fit

## Summary
Reviewed and updated all 18 files in `docs/src/ai/` to meet Zed's brand
voice standards. Each file was scored against the 8-criterion rubric and
rewritten where needed to achieve 4+ on all criteria.
**Changes include:**
- Remove "Learn how to/about" patterns (8 instances)
- Replace vague phrases ("various types of tasks", "and more") with
specific examples
- Remove taboo words ("seamless", "naturally extends")
- Remove emotional language ("We're excited/thrilled/happy")
- Remove marketing patterns ("Stay tuned!", exclamation points)
- Remove unverifiable claims ("world's fastest")
- Replace hedging with direct statements
- Remove promotional emphasis (`_free_`, `**_for free_**`)
- Fix typo in external-agents.md ("servers" → "serves")
- Fix broken link syntax for Ollama Turbo
## Test plan
- [x] `mdbook build` succeeds
- [x] Grep for remaining taboo phrases (only one "seamless" in MCP
official quote, preserved intentionally)
- [x] All facts preserved (URLs, keybindings, settings keys, prices,
model names)
Fixes AI-8
