May 1, 2025May 2025 monthly summary for sillsdev/web-xforge: Delivered Draft Retrieval Consistency and Configuration Enhancements. The change validates that all chapters within a scripture range have draft status before returning the latest draft and triggers a pre-translation status refresh as needed to keep drafts up-to-date, preventing webhook failures. Added Versification property to ParatextSettings and updated associated project configurations to align with the new retrieval workflow. This work improves data consistency in translation workflows and reduces manual intervention.
