fix(docs): replace stale v3 doc links with v4 equivalents#2786
Merged
Conversation
Customers following doc links from the main branch were landing on v3 (SodaCL / Soda Library) documentation and following the wrong process. - JSON contract schema: point the schema check description at the v4 contract language reference (#schema-check) instead of the v3 SodaCL page, and the threshold descriptions at #thresholds instead of the dead docs.soda.io/#thresholds anchor. Also drop two leftover 'YY ' prefixes in threshold descriptions. - exit_codes.py: the ExitCode docstring linked to the v3 Soda Library docs; no v4 page documents Soda Core exit codes (the sodacli page documents different semantics), so document the codes inline instead. The v3 links in the README's 'Working with legacy Soda Core v3' section are intentional and left as-is. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Context
A customer cloned the repo and followed a v3 docs link found on the
mainbranch, ending up on the wrong (legacy) process. This PR replaces the remaining v3-era doc links with their v4 equivalents.Changes
soda_data_contract_json_schema_1_0_0.json(user-facing via IDE validation/hover while authoring contracts):docs.soda.io/soda-cl/schema.html(v3 SodaCL) →docs.soda.io/soda-v4/reference/contract-language-reference#schema-checkdocs.soda.io/#thresholdsanchor →docs.soda.io/soda-v4/reference/contract-language-reference#thresholds"YY "prefixes in threshold descriptions.exit_codes.py:ExitCodedocstring linked to the v3 Soda Library docs (docs.soda.io/soda-library/programmatic.html#scan-exit-codes). No v4 page documents Soda Core's exit codes — thesodaclireference documents different exit-code semantics (2= execution error there, vs. check warnings here) — so the codes are now documented inline in the docstring instead.Both replacement pages/anchors were verified to exist on docs.soda.io. The v3 links in the README's clearly-labeled "Working with legacy Soda Core v3" section are intentional and left untouched.
Notes / follow-ups (not in this PR)
go.soda.ioshortlinks: no suitable shortlinks exist yet for these targets, and the closest existing ones (go.soda.io/schema,go.soda.io/contracts) still redirect to v3 pages. Once v4-targeted slugs are created (e.g.contract-schema-check,contract-thresholds), swapping them in is a trivial follow-up.🤖 Generated with Claude Code
