Description

It seems evident that this approach to check for dead links is not working anymore, as the CI agent is being blocked and it times out frequently, giving out false positives.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Examine the CI configuration file (e.g., .github/workflows) to identify the dead link check step, review logs for timeout or blocking errors, and adjust timeout settings or change the link checking tool.
