December 2025 monthly summary: Key features delivered across repositories: - Checkmarx/ast-cli: CI/CD build stability improved by switching the macOS build runner to macos-15-intel (commit 6c7c56ba9ef95895f7ed3119047ea2844b49f864). - Checkmarx/ast-vscode-extension: AST CLI JavaScript Wrapper updated to version 0.0.149 (commit 38babb2a93d4e51e08d7250380c42eba06c93b68). - Checkmarx/ast-jetbrains-plugin: CI/CD workflow enhancements and release process updates including: automated fetch of the latest Java wrapper from the correct repository, security hardening by disabling password safe in plugin verifier, added a manual workflow_dispatch trigger for nightly releases, disk space cleanup prior to Java setup, and updated release author metadata (commits 9359f147d0b42e0b8564a1de7ea2c0409be01636, 15012ab739042158bae686e933f8a15072f67899, 5628b34b080eda4e2be89709d6b57b9d262fd362, fede92b079645fc778fd73a5023bde91ea75d4c3, 0cb055a6487ee0b043d4f0a4f37f339477245ace, 0cb055a6487ee0b043d4f0a4f37f339477245ace). - CheckmarxDev/ast-cli-java-wrapper: CI/CD Release URL Correction to reference the correct repository URL (commit e78d85200394f39e8e5ee8ccb3129aa0c467c0f7). Major bugs fixed: - CI/CD Release URL Correction in ast-cli-java-wrapper restored correct publishing flow. - ASCA OAuth Flow Background Scanning Bug Fix in Checkmarx/ast-jetbrains-plugin ensured background scan is initiated after successful authentication (commit 8abd6aea1caaad6fc307a1cfda5532da31bd7d28). Overall impact and accomplishments: - More reliable and stable builds across macOS runners, reducing flaky CI failures and hand-offs due to environment mismatches. - Strengthened release automation and accuracy across multiple repos, enabling faster, more predictable releases. - Enhanced security posture and user experience through hardening (password safe disabled) and background security scans in OAuth flow. - Version alignment and compatibility improvements reduce risk of feature drift between CLI, IDE extensions, and underlying Java wrapper. Technologies/skills demonstrated: - GitHub Actions workflow configuration, multi-repo CI/CD orchestration, Java wrapper integration, IDE extension packaging, version management, security hardening, and release metadata handling. Business value: - Reduced cycle time for releases, lower operational risk, and improved developer and customer confidence through reliable builds, secure processes, and timely feature delivery.

November 2025: Cross-repo CI/CD modernization and tooling upgrades across the ast-cli family delivered faster, more secure, and more maintainable releases.
