Overview

Three small README fixes — all objectively wrong things, no judgment calls:

  1. Container Scanning paragraph is missing the word "in":

    "...detect vulnerabilities in the following operating system packages..."

  2. Guided remediation table — in-place link points to #in-place-lockfile-remediation, which does not exist on the docs page. The actual H3 anchor is #in-place-lockfile-changes.
  3. Guided remediation table — relock link reuses the same broken #in-place-lockfile-remediation anchor. The relock strategy lives at #relock-and-relax-direct-dependencies (also confirmed by inspecting the rendered docs page).

Details

Verified each anchor by fetching https://google.github.io/osv-scanner/experimental/guided-remediation/ and listing the heading IDs. Only README.md is touched — six lines, three real fixes.

Testing

  • Confirmed all three corrected anchors (#in-place-lockfile-changes, #relock-and-relax-direct-dependencies, #override-dependency-versions) resolve to the correct sections on the live docs site.
  • No code changes — linter/test suite unaffected.

Checklist

- Container Scanning section: add missing "in" so the sentence reads
  "detect vulnerabilities in the following operating system packages..."
- Guided remediation table: the "in-place" link pointed to anchor
  #in-place-lockfile-remediation, which does not exist on the docs page;
  the actual section anchor is #in-place-lockfile-changes.
- Guided remediation table: the "relock" link reused the same broken
  anchor; it should point to #relock-and-relax-direct-dependencies, which
  is the section that actually documents that strategy.

Verified anchor IDs against
https://google.github.io/osv-scanner/experimental/guided-remediation/.
