Makes the site robust when an author profile is deleted or referenced without an existing file — it degrades to Guest instead of failing the build.
Before:
authors: z.array(reference('authors'))validated author existence at build time, so deleting an author while a post still referenced it broke the whole build.After:
z.string()); frontmatter format is unchanged (authors: [dinesh]).resolveAuthorsinsrc/lib/posts.ts): a missing profile logs a non-fatal build warning and falls back to the Guest Contributor profile (which has a real/authors/guestpage — no broken links). If evenguest.jsonis gone, it synthesizes a Guest so it still can't crash.Verified: temporarily deleted a referenced author (
ana.json) — build now warns and completes green, crediting affected posts to Guest. Previously this was a hard build failure.Note: this trades build-time reference validation for runtime resilience; broken handles are surfaced as build-log warnings rather than errors.
