January 2026 monthly summary for mozilla/application-services: Implemented telemetry differentiation by adding an X-Relay-Client HTTP header to telemetry requests, enabling OS-aware backend processing and analytics. The change centralizes platform identification at transport time and lays the groundwork for more precise telemetry routing and measurement across mobile and desktop environments.

December 2025: Delivered Mobile Profile Access and Premium Subscription Status API, enabling mobile clients to fetch authenticated user profiles and subscription status to drive feature gating and UI personalization. Implemented fetch_profile in RelayClient (commit 24d3b29), added error handling and tests, and established a foundation for monetization controls and cross-platform UX consistency in mozilla/application-services.

November 2025: Delivered a security hardening feature in mozilla/terraform-modules by enabling Cache Poisoning Prevention in the default Fastly VCL. Unsets the X-Http-Method-Override header to prevent cache poisoning across all Mozilla Fastly-backed deployments. This aligns with cross-project security fixes (commit 116be976521a1f9743c2999ba6b732115facb294; issue #403). The change reduces attack surface, strengthens the security baseline, and simplifies governance for Fastly configurations.
