  The hreflang alternates that used to sit on the home page were removed on
  2026-10-26. They declared es/de/fr/it/pt, but every one of them pointed at
  this same English URL: the site picks its language client-side from
  localStorage / navigator.language and serves every language at "/". Google
  treats alternates that all resolve to one page as invalid and ignores them,
  so they won nothing and gave Search Console something to flag.

  The six translations DO exist in the source (src/i18n.js, src/agents/*.json,
  src/design/*.json, src/servicesCopy*.js, src/tiers*.js) — what is missing is
  a URL per language. When /es, /de, /fr, /it and /pt become real prerendered
  pages with their own <html lang> and on-page hreflang tags, put the
  alternates back here, including an x-default.
