August 2025 monthly summary for the mavenagi/docs repository. Key features delivered include a comprehensive Developer Documentation refresh with a Getting Started guide for developers (supporting sandbox and production workflows), navigation improvements, and a PR preview workflow that auto-generates Fern doc previews for faster review and feedback. Documentation structure was standardized with a rename from the app builder manual to getting-started-guide-for-developers and a page title update to ensure consistency and discoverability. Major security improvement was implemented in CI/CD by pinning the GitHub Action to a specific commit SHA to address a CodeQL alert and reduce supply chain risk. These efforts collectively improve developer onboarding, shorten iteration cycles for documentation changes, and strengthen the security posture of the repo.
