Jun 1, 2025June 2025 monthly summary for Simon-Initiative/oli-torus: Completed key LTI enhancements and critical integration fixes, improving reliability and security for LMS integrations. Key features delivered include a new LTI 1.3 authentication token endpoint with API refactor to separate endpoints and improve testability, and the LTI Data Passback (AGS) with secure validation via new API endpoints for client-side evaluations and score submissions. Major bug fixes addressed CSRF-related issues in the LTI pipeline by removing the protect_from_forgery plug and corrected resource_link ID nesting to prevent double nesting in LTI requests. These changes reduce integration friction, enhance security, and improve maintainability and scalability for LMS integrations.

Apr 1, 2025April 2025 performance summary for Simon-Initiative/oli-torus: Key groundwork, reliability fixes, and release readiness. Highlights include implementing LTI external tools groundwork (authoring, delivery, and launch handling) with backend logic and platform instance management; fixing null 'sub' generation during user registration by adding migrations to enforce non-null 'sub' and generate a unique UUID when missing, with accompanying tests; improving activity bank creation reliability by switching to authoringElement for invocation across single and bulk creation; and upgrading the development container and release prep, including Debian image update, Docker Compose optimizations, pgvector usage, environment setup script, and version bump to 0.30.1. These efforts reduce data integrity risks, lay the foundation for scalable LTI integrations, and accelerate production readiness with a cleaner developer experience.
