Month: 2025-09 | OpenFGA.dev repo work focused on improving CI reliability and dependency management to accelerate reviewer feedback cycles and reduce upgrade risk. Key changes delivered in September 2025: 1) PR Preview Action Reliability: fixed failures in the pr-preview-action by adjusting workflow permissions and publishing the preview link to the job summary, ensuring the preview URL is accessible for reviewers and stakeholders. Commit: 9c8afef1137b96c2316cc1c5b60943dc6fe4ebff (ci: fix `pr-preview-action` pr check failures (#1091)). 2) Dependabot Configuration Enhancement for Safer Updates: improved dependency update process by separating major release updates into their own group and excluding React, React DOM, and related types to prevent suggestions for React 19, avoiding premature or incompatible updates. Commit: a7a7ee71e83900e5aebaffac4b4430e920f560eb (ci(dependabot): break out major releases into own group; ignore react 19 suggestions (#1097)).
