DANDI upload failing with latest dandi-cli

[rly]

Describe the issue

See https://github.com/NeurodataWithoutBorders/nwb-guide/actions/runs/17189645566/job/48763490338

caused by neuroconv passing instance=dandi-staging to dandi.upload. See catalystneuro/neuroconv#1484 and dandi/dandi-cli#1692.

We'll have to update neuroconv to the latest version once a fix is released. For now, we may be able to pin dandi to the previous version.

This should not affect the latest 1.0.7 release.

@rly I believe this should be OK in the 'newer' latest DANDI CLI

[rly]

Yes. dandi 0.71.1 re-allows instance="dandi-staging" (with planned removal in early 2026) so this is no longer urgent, but we should update to use the latest NeuroConv as soon as possible.
