December 2024 monthly summary for sartography/spiff-arena. Focused on delivering business-value through two main capabilities: 1) flexible repository cloning via HTTPS with optional SSH to enable read-only HTTPS access without SSH keys; 2) Docker image CI/CD enhancements with parallel matrix builds and integrated security scanning (Trivy) to detect critical/high vulnerabilities before publishing. Also constrained vulnerability scans to amd64 due to build-tool limitations and updated workflow documentation to reflect vulnerability thresholds. These changes reduce friction for developers in restricted environments, shorten release cycles, and improve the security posture of the image pipeline.
