Worked on the eea/helm-charts repository to enhance the reliability of the version-bump workflow by introducing a runtime prerequisite check for the yq tool within the increase_version_helm.sh script. This Shell scripting solution ensures that required dependencies are validated before execution, reducing the likelihood of runtime errors caused by missing tooling. Additionally, updated the project’s README to clearly document the yq dependency and provide installation instructions, streamlining onboarding for new users. The work focused on DevOps practices and scripting, prioritizing preventive measures and automation improvements over bug fixes to strengthen the overall release process and minimize future operational issues.
