October 2025 (2025-10) – Auth service improvements for anaconda-auth: implemented soft-fail for missing tokens, updated token loader to return None instead of raising, added HTTP 401/403 handling, and expanded tests/docs. This reduces runtime failures when tokens are absent and stabilizes authentication flows across environments.
