Solutions

1. Use one of the seven valid category codes: zwgk, zwxw, mndt, zdhy, tzgg, zlxx, zcjd
2. Refer to the route description table for the category-to-code mapping
3. Use the documented example: /gov/maonan/zwgk

Example fix

// before
default:
    throw new Error(`Unknown category: ${ctx.req.param('category')}`);

// after (use InvalidParameterError for RSSHub consistency)
import InvalidParameterError from '@/errors/types/invalid-parameter';
// ...
default:
    throw new InvalidParameterError(`Unknown category '${ctx.req.param('category')}'. Valid: zwgk, zwxw, mndt, zdhy, tzgg, zlxx, zcjd`);

const VALID_CATEGORIES = ['zwgk', 'zwxw', 'mndt', 'zdhy', 'tzgg', 'zlxx', 'zcjd'];
const category = ctx.req.param('category');
if (!VALID_CATEGORIES.includes(category)) {
    throw new InvalidParameterError(`Unknown category '${category}'. Valid: ${VALID_CATEGORIES.join(', ')}`);
}

function isValidCategory(cat: string): cat is 'zwgk' | 'zwxw' | 'mndt' | 'zdhy' | 'tzgg' | 'zlxx' | 'zcjd' {
    return ['zwgk', 'zwxw', 'mndt', 'zdhy', 'tzgg', 'zlxx', 'zcjd'].includes(cat);
}

When it happens

Trigger: A request to /gov/maonan/:category where the category is not one of the seven valid values. The switch maps each category to an id path and display name; the default throws with the invalid category value.

Common situations: Typo in category (e.g., 'zwg' instead of 'zwgk'); using a category name instead of its code (e.g., '公告公示' instead of 'tzgg'); category was removed or renamed.
