During a three-month period, Josh Shaw enhanced Fastly’s backend and CLI tooling across multiple repositories. He strengthened security in fastly/Viceroy by implementing stricter object key validation in Go, preventing directory traversal and aligning with production security policies. In fastly/go-fastly, he added a name-based filtering feature for KV store listings, improving API precision and updating fixtures for consistency. Shaw also improved the user experience and documentation for object-storage access keys in fastly/cli, clarifying command behavior and output formatting. His work demonstrated depth in backend, API, and CLI development, with a focus on maintainability, security, and clear operator-facing documentation.

June 2025: Implemented name-based filtering for KV stores in fastly/go-fastly by adding an optional 'Name' parameter to ListKVStoresInput. Updated fixtures and timestamps to reflect the new behavior. This enhances precision and reduces noise when listing KV stores by name. No major bugs fixed this month; focus was on feature delivery and data consistency. Technologies demonstrated include Go, API design with query parameters, fixture management, and version control with clear, traceable commits.

February 2025: Security hardening for fastly/Viceroy by tightening object key validation to prevent directory traversal and align with production security policies. Implemented stricter checks to reject keys containing '../' or ending with '/..', and similarly for './' or ending with '/.' to prevent directory traversal and enforce production standards across key handling.
