PROFILE
Andres Martinez Gotor
Worked on the grafana/plugin-validator repository over four months, delivering five features focused on improving plugin validation workflows and code quality. Leveraged Go, TypeScript, and YAML to implement GitHub token authentication for link validation, reducing API rate limits and enhancing reliability. Expanded static and code analysis with new rules enforcing Grafana coding standards, improved severity classification, and reduced noise in automated findings. Developed semgrep-based tests to enforce correct Grafana runtime API usage and introduced validation rules to align backend datasource design with best practices. Emphasized maintainability, automated guardrails, and secure, consistent plugin development without prioritizing bug fixes during this period.

Mar 1, 2026March 2026 (grafana/plugin-validator): Implemented Grafana runtime API usage enforcement tests using semgrep to prevent direct calls to /api/ds/query and promote usage of Grafana runtime APIs. Change includes positive and negative test cases and is tracked under commit ddc9cb9f62fc6fc1774df4bb97ed4b7f7ce7d05d (#546). No major bugs fixed this month; the focus was on expanding test coverage and API governance. Impact: reduces runtime API misuse, improves plugin reliability, and establishes automated guardrails for future changes. Technologies/skills demonstrated: semgrep, test-driven development, CI integration, and adherence to Grafana runtime API guidelines.
