September 2025: Key deliverables in akka-sdk focused on testability, configurability, and maintainability. Implemented a MockOpenAI endpoint to enable safe testing and load testing without consuming tokens, documented usage, and provided an example for agentic service configuration (commit fc1ce2b615a7ec28f084edce730bef8d0bc0004f). Removed unused LogbackJsonLayout to simplify the codebase and reduce maintenance overhead (commit c42c3f87db9354deaa1b66435b3dc08c69e0b627). Brought env-var configurability for the bearer token issuer with tests and updated JWT descriptor factory and test build setup (commit 1552cc75d69f7a19ebb96a562ccc8d2072e089). Added user-configurable timeouts and retries for AI model providers and MCP tools to improve robustness and tunability (commit 3300eb4eb6f7cf6f07ef9724f91748d600e60b1f).
