Concise monthly summary for 2025-10 focusing on SDK capabilities and widget configuration enhancements delivered for palantir/osdk-ts. Key outcomes include: exposing the RID for object types via an experimentalDoNotUseMetadata field (renamed to internalDoNotUseMetadata to reflect internal usage) to improve discoverability and referenceability; enabling objectSet parameters in widget configurations with manifest translation updates; and performing internal metadata refinements that reduce confusion and maintenance risk. No user-facing bug fixes were documented this month; major improvements stem from metadata handling, type discovery, and widget manifest generation. These efforts collectively improve developer onboarding, reliability of object-type references, and the end-to-end widget development workflow, delivering tangible business and technical value.
