Zenzic v0.17.0: HTML Validation in Markdown Documents

PythonWoods — Tue, 14 Jul 2026 17:19:10 +0000

With the release of Zenzic v0.17.0, Zenzic expands its validation capabilities beyond Markdown syntax. In addition to Markdown links and assets, Zenzic can now analyze raw HTML references embedded in Markdown documents.

A common limitation of Markdown-focused tooling is that raw HTML embedded inside Markdown documents may not be analyzed with the same level of validation as native Markdown constructs. When developers embed <a> tags or <img> elements directly into their Markdown to achieve specific layouts or functionality, broken links and missing assets can remain undetected.

With v0.17.0, HTML links and images are analyzed by the same validation pipeline used for Markdown references.

10 Documentation Bugs Caught by Zenzic

PythonWoods — Tue, 14 Jul 2026 17:19:10 +0000

Documentation isn't just text—it's a critical interface. When users rely on your docs to deploy infrastructure, configure security policies, or integrate APIs, a "simple typo" can lead to hours of lost productivity.

In a docs-as-code workflow, documentation is code. And just like code, it has bugs. That's why we built Zenzic: a zero-config Markdown link and structural integrity auditor.

Here are 10 subtle, frustrating, and downright dangerous documentation bugs that Zenzic catches automatically in your CI/CD pipelines.

Zenzic v0.19.0: The AST Foundations & Atomic Auto-Fix

PythonWoods — Tue, 14 Jul 2026 17:19:10 +0000

Zenzic v0.19.0 marks a structural milestone for the engine, introducing a lossless Abstract Syntax Tree, an O(N) inline tokenizer, and the new Atomic Auto-Fix mechanism.

Zenzic v0.20.0: The Extensibility Update — Custom AST Rules & Auto-Fix Expansion

PythonWoods — Tue, 14 Jul 2026 17:19:10 +0000

Zenzic v0.20.0 opens the engine's AST to user-defined Python rules via the Custom Rules API v2, introduces a deterministic visitation sandbox, and extends the auto-fix pipeline to Z121 and Z603.
