Review comments at @opsimate-docs/docs/alerts/silences-and-mute-policies.md:
- Line 166: Update the `action` row in the silence and mute policies
documentation to describe `silence` and `unsilence` as the actions documented
here, not the complete accepted action set; indicate that other actions are also
accepted.
- Line 109: Update the `silencedUntil` documentation to clarify that indefinite
silences created with `null` are not available in the UI and are still cleared
by the daily silence reset; distinguish this reset behavior from explicit
unsilencing.
- Around line 185-186: Update the read-settings curl example for the
silence-reset endpoint to use an admin JWT in the Authorization Bearer header
instead of an API token, matching the update example and the documented 403
behavior for API-token requests.
