The sample configuration nested preconditions and merge_mode at the wrong level and set use_fast_forwarding to false on a page describing how to turn it on. Correct both so the sample can be copied directly. Explain why updating a protected branch needs additional permission, how to tell whether your repository needs it, and why the operation cannot rewrite history: the branch update is sent without the force flag, so it applies only as a fast-forward. Document repository rulesets, which are evaluated separately from classic branch protection and require adding the app to the ruleset bypass list. Link the Repositories page from the getting started steps, and label the parallel mode animations so each one states which scenario it shows. Correct the failure description, which said the first temporary branch is kept when its CI fails while also describing it being rebuilt without those commits.

Addresses setup questions raised while onboarding a new repository into parallel mode with fast-forwarding.
mergequeue/how-to-guides/fast-forwarding.mdpreconditionsandmerge_modewere nested one level too high, anduse_fast_forwardingwas set tofalseon the page that tells you to set it totrue. Both corrected; the sample now matches the schema in the configuration reference and parses cleanly.mergequeue/quick-setup.mdSteps 2 and 3 referred to the onboarding flow and the Repositories page with no links. Both now link out.

The animations themselves are unchanged. They still have no pause control and do not label the branches the text names, which needs new assets rather than a text edit.
