Oct 1, 2025October 2025 monthly summary for Expensify/Bedrock: Focused on reliability and data integrity in core data access. Delivered a targeted revert to undo the 'Update SQLite using hctree branch (JSONB_EACH)' change, restoring correct JSONB_EACH behavior in SQLite integration. This fix mitigated risk of incorrect JSONB_EACH results in production data queries, preserving customer data accuracy and downstream analytics. The change was implemented via a single commit (760c958e16ec9b02359bacf82d3d0c1e0e0260da), minimizing risk and the change window. Impacted areas: SQLite integration, JSONB processing; no new features introduced, but stability and trust in data access paths were strengthened.
