July 2025 – Release management and dependency hygiene for the adobe/reactor-extension-alloy repository. Implemented a routine version bump to 2.31.1 to align dependencies, enabling downstream compatibility and smoother releases. No user-facing features were introduced this month; focus remained on stability, maintainability, and preparing for future automation. No critical bugs fixed; maintenance work prioritized release readiness and code health. This release improves traceability, reduces risk for consumers, and sets the stage for upcoming features in the next cycle. Technologies/skills demonstrated include semantic versioning, release engineering, Git commit hygiene, CI skip conventions, dependency management, and repository maintenance.
