Research direction

Start with the existing-sidebar integration instructions in the README and the sidebar.js category shown in the report. Reproduce the failure by changing the category label from "Reference" while retaining the autogenerated openrpc directory. Done means the OpenRPC sidebar content renders with a customized category label.

Problem:

Following the instructions for instillation to integrate into an existing sidebar here: https://github.com/MetaMask/docusaurus-openrpc?tab=readme-ov-file#2-integrate-into-the-existing-sidebar

Changing the "label" name for the category to anything other than "Reference" in the sidebar.js results in failure to render the OpenRPC sidebar content. 

{
	type: "category",

	link: { type: "generated-index" },
	items: [

},
Expected Behavior:

The label name for the sidebar category can be customized to a name other than "Reference."
