October 2025 monthly summary for the snyk/user-docs repo. Key feature delivered this month: API Documentation clarified the semantics of the 'total' field to reflect the total count of dependencies within the organization that match the applied filters, not the number of results on the current page. This aligns documentation with the actual implementation (commit c0714985ff32f931b908bafd27d9a758d1e0532f). Major bug fixed: corrected the documentation semantics so users understand that total is organization-wide. The example provided matches the implementation: 20 items on a page could correspond to a total of 6024 across the org. This change reduces confusion and support queries, ensuring the docs accurately describe behavior. Overall impact: improved developer understanding, increased trust in API docs, and better alignment between docs and code. Technologies/skills demonstrated: API documentation accuracy, version-controlled fixes, precise technical writing, cross-checking docs against code, and clear communication of non-obvious semantics.
