Zak focused on backend reliability and documentation quality across two repositories during this period. In Jackett/Jackett, Zak addressed API timestamp inconsistencies by updating the aither-api.yml configuration from EGT to UTC, ensuring uniform date and time semantics for downstream services and reducing timezone-related support issues. The work involved careful configuration management using YAML and validation across affected services. In TRaSH-Guides/Guides, Zak refined the Disney+ Hotstar documentation, clarifying ownership, content offerings, and regional availability. Leveraging Markdown and regex, Zak improved maintainability and onboarding for streaming service documentation. The work demonstrated depth in both configuration management and technical documentation.
