Worked on the firebase-tools repository to enhance the reliability of Firestore index metadata returned by the API. Addressed a bug where the __name__ field was being inadvertently removed from index listings, which previously led to incomplete index data and potential confusion for developers configuring Firestore. The solution involved removing a filter that excluded the __name__ field, ensuring all relevant index information is preserved in API responses. This backend improvement was implemented using TypeScript and leveraged skills in API development and Firestore data structures. The work focused on maintaining data fidelity and supporting downstream developer workflows that depend on accurate index metadata.
