October 2025 monthly work summary focusing on stability and build parity for docs tooling. Implemented a Go toolchain compatibility fix for arangoproxy in the arangodb/docs-hugo repo by updating the minimum Go version to 1.24 and pinning the patch version (1.24.0) in go.mod. This ensures consistent builds across development, CI, and production environments and reduces build-related failures. The changes align with the Go ecosystem and enhance reliability for downstream consumers of arangoproxy.
