March 2026 performance summary for supabase/wrappers: Delivered Parameter Change Tracking and Conditional Rescans to optimize parameter-driven scans. The feature introduces fingerprinting to detect when parameters actually change, and triggers rescans only as needed, significantly reducing unnecessary processing. Implemented a mechanism to refresh parameter state and rescan on external/execution parameter changes to maintain accuracy and responsiveness. Refactored fingerprint handling to use String for robust rescans and easier maintenance. Work aligns with commit 96a0eab62a3328186706d9f28ec13692e8f90a3b (#587); collaboration included Benjamin and Bo Lu.
