March 2025 (replicatedhq/replicated) — Focused on RBAC-driven channel discovery reliability and permission-aware lookups. Delivered a robust channel lookup path by treating 403s like NotFound and falling back to listing, ensuring users with ID-based access can locate channels even when direct viewing is restricted. Fixed a permissions edge-case that previously caused lookup failures, reducing admin friction and support overhead. Overall, improved security alignment with RBAC while enhancing operational reliability for channel management. Technologies demonstrated: backend error handling, RBAC design, and observable commit traceability.
