March 2025 monthly summary for Qovery/documentation: Delivered a documentation update for AWS credential setup that simplifies onboarding and strengthens security. The update removes the Admins group prerequisite and centers on creating the qovery IAM user with the correct permissions, aligned with least-privilege practices. This change reduces onboarding friction, lowers support overhead, and provides clearer, actionable steps for AWS integration. No code changes were required; the work focused on improving docs and guidance. Commit reference: a35c33a885df0722952a8ed534322e47e1ed8346.

February 2025 performance summary across Qovery/documentation, Qovery-openapi-spec, and Qovery-cli. Key features delivered: documentation clarifications on image retention scope and TTL mirroring; OpenAPI inputs refined (container input switched to image tag; Helm version guidance clarified); CLI environment stage list improvements (stage IDs included, HELM service name resolution corrected, and standardized output); telemetry governance enhancements including a global opt-out flag and subsequent centralization of telemetry control via QOVERY_TELEMETRY env var with case-insensitive handling. Major bugs fixed: case-insensitive handling of QOVERY_TELEMETRY; stage/list and Helm name display fixes; removal of legacy --notrack flag in favor of environment-based telemetry control. Overall impact: improved deployment clarity, reduced misconfiguration risk, standardized CLI outputs, and strengthened telemetry governance with explicit user choice. Technologies/skills demonstrated: API specification governance, documentation engineering, CLI UX improvements, telemetry architecture, cross-repo coordination.
