May 2026 monthly summary for dice-group/dice-embeddings: Delivered deployment governance improvements for GitHub Pages and addressed deployment gating issues. Implemented GitHub Pages deployment gating to push events only and added contents:write permission in the CI workflow. This reduces the risk of unintended public page updates while maintaining content updates for legitimate pushes. Commit reference: f0c111dadf40d7590aa64b6039168a7d3cca02f6.
