February 2026 (SocialGouv/egapro): Delivered a targeted data integrity fix to prevent [NON-DIFFUSIBLE] placeholders from populating Company fields, ensuring the Company class and related helpers only assign values when data is valid. This prevents invalid/placeholder data from affecting application logic and downstream processes. Impact: Improved data quality and reliability of company-related data in production, reducing the risk of incorrect business rules triggering and enabling more accurate reporting. Technologies/skills demonstrated: defensive programming, data validation, traceability through commit references, and maintainability of validation logic across core helpers.
