December 2025 monthly summary for algokit-utils-ts: Focused API refactor to standardize ResourceReference usage across transaction methods. Key changes include renaming AccessReference to ResourceReference, updating getTransactionResourceReference, moving getResourceReference to the composer module and making it private, and aligning parameter naming in TransactionComposer. Four commits document the work: d9fcce7b62ddb80e382b90527d6b07b3b1d2c091, 2f71b03cb676d7c13f8622cdb5febf5255103b39, 732cf903d0ccc6902eab9be35eac992459bb91fe, 811cbb8b69eb71a741de51aed12f32a924c40114. This refactor improves API clarity, reduces maintenance overhead, and strengthens encapsulation, delivering business value by lowering integration risk for downstream apps and builders. No user-facing feature changes; groundwork for a stable API surface and easier future enhancements.

April 2025 — Focused on reliability and correctness of workspace diagnostics in algorandfoundation/puya-ts. Implemented absolute path normalization for diagnostic file paths by converting relative paths to absolute using the upath library before populating the diagnostics map, eliminating platform-specific inconsistencies and improving developer feedback. The change is tied to commit 59a4b4fc33cc1d8ea2e53dd1e3e84478e551c070.
