🚀 InsForge

PR: InsForge/InsForge#1732

Title: Add OpenAPI Specification for Schedules API

• Added a new openapi/schedules.yaml specification covering all schedules module endpoints.
• Registered the schedules API in docs/docs.json across language variants to surface it in generated docs.
• Incorporated review feedback to align request/response schemas and error handling with actual validator and route behavior.

Technologies: OpenAPI, API Documentation, TypeScript, Backend Documentation

🚀 InsForge

PR: InsForge/InsForge#1827

Title: Document S3 Proxy Mode Upload and Download Strategies

• Updated the storage OpenAPI specification to reflect current S3 proxy mode behavior when presigned URLs are disabled.
• Clarified that clients should use the returned method field to determine upload and download behavior instead of assuming it from the storage backend.
• Added examples and clarified the confirmRequired and confirmUrl contract to improve API consumer correctness.

🚀 InsForge

PR: InsForge/InsForge#1833

Title: fix(dashboard): Include Cron Schedule in Schedule Search

• Fixed a duplicated predicate bug in the schedule search logic where functionUrl was checked twice, preventing users from searching by cron schedule.
• Replaced the duplicated functionUrl predicate with the correct cronSchedule predicate.
• Improved dashboard UX by enabling accurate search across all schedule fields.

Technologies: TypeScript, React, Dashboard, Bug Fix

🚀 Armeria (LINE)

PR: line/armeria#6860

Title: Fix IDN Normalization for Authorities with Ports

• Fixed a bug where IDN.toASCII() was applied to the entire authority string (host + port) before host/port parsing, causing failures for long internationalized hostnames with ports.
• Refactored the normalization to apply IDN.toASCII() only to the host portion after splitting on the port delimiter.
• Added tests covering edge cases with long IDN hostnames and various port combinations.

🚀 Armeria (LINE)

PR: line/armeria#6899

Title: Fix NPE in Http1ObjectEncoder.doWriteReset() When pendingWritesMap Is Sparse

• Fixed a NullPointerException in Http1ObjectEncoder.doWriteReset() where iterating a contiguous range of request IDs [minClosedId, maxIdWithPendingWrites] would hit null entries for IDs that had no pending writes.
• Added a null-guard to skip sparse entries in the pending writes map, preventing NPEs during HTTP/1 connection reset in pipelined request handling.
• Added test coverage for the sparse-map scenario to prevent regression.

Technologies: Java, Armeria, HTTP/1, Netty, Bug Fix

PR: InsForge/InsForge#1858

Title: feat(dashboard): Remove Direct GitHub Dependency from Dashboard Header

• Removed the direct browser-side dependency on the GitHub API for displaying repository stars in the dashboard header.
• Added a backend endpoint to proxy the GitHub repository metadata, eliminating unauthenticated rate-limit risks on the client.
• Updated the dashboard frontend to consume the new internal endpoint instead of calling GitHub directly.

Technologies: TypeScript, React, Node.js, REST APIs, Dashboard
