October 2025 monthly summary for geode-sdk/geode focusing on stabilizing developer search UX by preserving search state across interactions. The major improvement fixes a bug where the ModsLayer would clear the developer search state when querying, introducing a new boolean parameter 'searchingDev' to gotoTab and ModList::init to control whether the source cache is cleared or reset. This change reduces user friction and keeps search context intact during navigation, enhancing productivity and reducing re-entry of queries.

September 2025 summary: Delivered Modtober 2025 event integration for geode SDK, enhancing seasonal engagement and improving mod-list UX. Implemented new event assets, added Modtober category to the mod list, updated the mod popup to surface event-specific information, and introduced a dedicated Discord join guide popup. Fixed a copy-paste error in the popup image and replaced brittle string manipulation with fmt::format for robust formatting. This work improves user guidance during Modtober, strengthens branding consistency, and demonstrates solid code quality through asset management, UI updates, and modern C++ practices.
