March 2026: Implemented API-driven collection-number handling across hcf-api and hcf-painel to standardize numbering, improve data integrity, and reduce client-side complexity. The Collection Number Auto-Increment API in utfpr/hcf-api computes the next number by querying the current maximum and exposes it for new records. In utfpr/hcf-painel, the increment logic was moved to the API to ensure consistent numbering and data consistency across services. These changes enhance reliability for collection workflows and establish a scalable foundation for future enhancements.

December 2025 focused on backend stability and data integrity for the utfpr/hcf-api repository. No new user-facing features were released this month. The primary deliverable was a database migration fix to include structured data for stages in the Fase Sucessional table, improving data integrity, clarity, and downstream reporting.
