Jun 1, 2025June 2025: palantir/osdk-ts contributed substantial enhancements to the OSDK Maker module, focusing on usability, flexibility, and API hygiene. Delivered comprehensive documentation covering ontologies, shared property types, value types, interfaces, objects, links, and actions, with practical examples to speed onboarding and reduce integration friction. Implemented flexible action definitions by making modify-action parameters optional and adjusting one-to-many link cardinality hints, enabling more expressive and robust action parameterization and link modeling. Introduced naming validation for link APIs to enforce a consistent naming pattern (start with a lowercase letter, followed by lowercase letters, numbers, or hyphens). These changes collectively improve developer experience, reduce runtime errors, and accelerate time-to-value for users integrating with the OSDK Maker. Maintained focus on performance and maintainability with clear commit discipline and code quality improvements in the palantir/osdk-ts repository.
