Cross-installer updates included release table entries and BYO installer support for V2 DB schema. Major bug fix: Resource Search Documentation Formatting Fix to improve clarity and consistency in README.md. Impact: enhances deployment flexibility for enterprise environments, reduces upgrade risk, and improves maintainability across installers. Skills/tech: cross-repo coordination, environment-variable driven configuration, multi-installer support, documentation discipline, and versioned schema handling. Commits of record: c344d711c7bbbc432c9fff8370038578ebde310b (DB schema env vars and cross-installer updates) and 663288dcc8520d15f8bed24cbb6baeac86d3fec7 (README formatting for Resource Search).

October 2025 monthly summary focusing on delivering API docs enhancements for Pulumi docs to support automated API documentation generation.
