June 2025 focused on delivering end-to-end deployment, release, and CI/CD improvements for the Pilcrow stack. Key outcomes include Kubernetes deployment via Helm with appVersion alignment, a hardened release workflow with explicit version bumps, CDN-backed frontend delivery, and a hardened, observable CI/CD pipeline featuring artifacts, version baking, and secure token usage. Structural build optimizations and framework upgrades across the API and backend reduced risk and improved performance, while enhanced reporting and attribution improved traceability and accountability for changes.
