November 2025 — Delivered the Decoupled LDK Logging System for getAlby/hub, enabling independent log levels and a structured logging pipeline. The LDK log level configuration was moved into the LDK section, and the logger is now initialized within the LDK service, reducing cross-component coupling. These changes cut log noise, improve debuggability for LDK-related issues, and establish groundwork for component-level observability and faster incident response. The effort strengthens monitoring readiness and supports future observability enhancements across modules.
