The site generates tag links as /tag/ + the exact tag string (see _layouts/post.html), and tag pages filter with post.tags contains page.tag (_layouts/tag.html). Using dsa here will not match the repo’s established Title Case tag convention (e.g., tags/ai-integration.md uses AI Integration) and will 404 / not filter correctly once the post tags are corrected. Recommend switching this tag page to title/tag: DSA and permalink: /tag/DSA (and ensure the post uses DSA).
