Findings & Fixes Applied

1. 🐛 Broken link (fixed): The Celery configuration link used #worker_send_task_events (underscores) but the actual anchor in the Celery docs is #worker-send-task-events (hyphens). This would have resulted in a broken link for users.

2. 📝 Improved section structure (fixed): The original used a numbered list where step 2 was just an explanation, not an action. Restructured to use clear prose with the command first, followed by an alternative approach.

3. ➕ Added config-file alternative (added): Users who prefer not to use CLI flags can set worker_send_task_events = True in their Celery configuration. This is a common approach and provides flexibility.

4. 📅 Updated frontmatter date (fixed): The pre-commit hook flagged the outdated date (2026-01-27), updated to 2026-02-19.
