Feb 1, 2026February 2026 monthly work summary for quarkusio/quarkus: Focused on native-image reliability and reflection for gRPC/Protobuf. Implemented comprehensive DescriptorProtos reflection, introduced a protobuf library index, and fixed a descriptor name typo to ensure correct reflection of gRPC message types. Result: more robust native-image builds, fewer reflection-related runtime failures, and smoother development workflows.
