Release v0.11.0 #474

Problem description

Cut the numbered tooling 0.11.0 (minor) release, consolidating the 23 PRs merged to main since v0.10.0 (2026-09-04).

This release extends the info.description template check (P-027) to warn when a mandatory block has no blank line directly after its BEGIN marker (#457), labels finding locations that point at an inline schema (#453), adds a one-command local validation run (#471) and links the run and fixture per branch in the regression summary (#470). Validation jobs now restore the npm cache (#448), the Commonalities regression pipeline for CommonalitiesTest receives fixes (#444, #449, #459), and eleven /validation dependency changes are included. The release PR below carries the full v0.11.0 CHANGELOG section.

Expected action

• Confirm the Validation Regression canary is green at the release base.
• Confirm the Release Automation Regression canary is green at the release base.
• Verify that redocly bundle output is byte-identical across the @redocly/cli range of this release (2.49.0 to 2.64.1), over the API definitions of 47 API repositories.
• Open the release metadata PR (VERSION.yaml, CHANGELOG.md v0.11.0 section, README tag reference).
• Merge the release metadata PR.
• Publish the v0.11.0 GitHub Release (Latest) on the merge commit.
• Confirm the post-merge Validation Regression canary is green.
• Move the v1-rc floating tag from 568fe8f to the v0.11.0 release commit.

Additional context

v0.10.0 was published on 2026-09-04 and currently anchors v1-rc.

Unlike v0.10.0, this release does not change release-review pipeline behavior. The one change to a reusable workflow used by API repositories is the npm cache in validation.yml (#448). Validation Regression canary: run 39388016152 at 5e546c8. Release Automation Regression canary: run 37616226792; no release automation file has changed since.
