March 2025: Stabilized CI, hardened core DI, enhanced route conversion observability, and completed framework upkeep. Unblocked CI by temporarily ignoring the Prisma sample to resolve a module import error and removing the sample directory from processing, enabling faster feedback loops. Fixed an infinite loop in the dependency injection system by correctly handling static contexts, reducing startup risk. Introduced flexible logging during route conversion in LegacyRouteConverter via an options object for the tryConvert method, enhancing visibility for wildcard routes. Performed maintenance work including a NestJS upgrade to 11.0.12 and minor code-quality cleanups, with no functional changes.
