Celo RPC Provider Documentation Update
The hole, and the fix

NOWNodes is currently missing from the list of Celo RPC providers.

This PR adds NOWNodes as a managed Celo Mainnet RPC provider, with a link to the Celo-specific service page and information about supported debug methods.

What this does NOT do / residual risk

Documentation-only change. It does not modify Celo network functionality, node software, or application code.

Judgement calls

None.

Issues

None.

Stacking / conflicts

Branched off main and independent of other PRs.

Verification evidence
Confirmed Celo Mainnet is supported by NOWNodes.
Confirmed Celo RPC access is available.
Confirmed debug methods are supported.
Confirmed the linked NOWNodes Celo product page is available.
No application tests were run because this is a documentation-only change.
Remaining ops steps

None

Checklist

AGENTS.md section 4 rules out inflated adjectives and promotional framing.
"geo-balanced infrastructure, automatic failover, 24/7 support" is vendor copy
rather than something a reader chooses on; the debug-method support is the part
that actually differentiates the entry, so that stays. Matches the shape of the
Lava and Infura entries.

Approving. Both links verified 200 (nownodes.io, nownodes.io/nodes/celo-celo), and the entry follows the existing provider pattern.

Two maintainer commits pushed to your branch:

  1. Rebased onto main. tooling/nodes/overview.mdx was rewritten by #2291 last week (the thirdweb de-promotion also touched this file), so the branch no longer applied cleanly.

  2. Trimmed the blurb. AGENTS.md section 4 rules out promotional framing, so "geo-balanced infrastructure, automatic failover, 24/7 support" came out. The debug-method support stayed — that is the part a reader actually chooses on, and none of the neighbouring entries mention it. The entry now reads like the Lava and Infura ones:

    NOWNodes is a managed RPC provider. Their Celo endpoints support debug methods.

For the record, the GetBlock entry directly above yours is considerably worse on this ("Tier 1", "lightning-fast", "best-in-class support") and predates your PR. That is not yours to fix and I have left it alone — it wants its own cleanup pass.

If NOWNodes also serves Celo Sepolia, say so and I will add it to the Supported Networks list before this merges.
