prompt: "You are editing an APIs.json document to satisfy the Spotlight API
governance rule 'schema-include-getting-started' (Schema Include Getting
Started). Requirement: This property ensures that there is a getting started
link available, providing a reference for API consumers to get started with
an API is as few steps as possible. To fix: Ensure `type` does NOT match the
regular expression `\\b(GettingStarted)\\b`; rename or rewrite any value
that does. This rule is evaluated at the JSONPath `$.apis.*.properties.* |
$.common.*` — inspect every location it matches and correct only what
violates the rule. Make the smallest change that satisfies the rule, leave
all unrelated content, key order, comments, and formatting unchanged, and
