September 2025 monthly summary for smartcontractkit/chainlink. Key focus: dependency upgrades to align with latest Chainlink-EVM releases and targeted hygiene improvements to strengthen security and maintainability. Deliverables include cross-module upgrades to Chainlink-EVM versions and groundwork for future feature adoption, coupled with go module cleanup to reduce risk and improve reproducibility across builds.

June 2025 monthly summary for smartcontractkit/chainlink-evm focused on Beholder metrics integrity and test stability. Key changes include aligning purged transaction ToAddress with on-chain representation (0x0) and adding tests to validate this behavior, along with refactoring Beholder tests to address a race condition by adopting a message-capture utility instead of direct emitter mocks. These improvements reduced flaky tests and improved reliability of metrics, enabling more trustworthy dashboards and analytics for Beholder.
