What

Deletes the fonts block from docs.json:

"fonts": {
  "heading": { "family": "" },
  "body": { "family": "" }
}

Why

The empty family strings make Mintlify build a Google Fonts URL with no font name — css2?family=:ital,wght@0,400;… — on every page load. Google returns an error page, and Chrome DevTools flags it as CORB-blocked response + failed stylesheet (2 failing requests per page view, visible in the Issues panel on production).

The site already renders with Mintlify's default font stack (the custom-font request has never succeeded), so removing the block changes nothing visually — it just eliminates the guaranteed-failing requests. If a custom font was ever intended, it can be re-added with a real family name.

Unrelated to the version-selector Error 500 investigation (#457) — this is independent cleanup found while debugging it.

🤖 Generated with Claude Code

fonts.heading.family and fonts.body.family were empty strings, which
made Mintlify request https://fonts.googleapis.com/css2?family=:ital,...
with no family name on every page load. Google returns an error page,
which Chrome reports as CORB-blocked / failed stylesheet. The site
already renders with Mintlify's default font stack, so removing the
block changes nothing visually and drops two guaranteed-failing
requests per page.
