go.mod (2)

13-15: Verify experimental flow-go version stability.

Line 14 pins flow-go to an experimental pre-release version: v0.45.0-experimental-cadence-v1.8.7.0.20260109014156-2abea7b5732a. This appears intentional (matching the cadence v1.8.7 experimental tag), but ensure this version has been tested and is stable for production use. The flow-protobuf update on line 157 correctly tracks the cadence release.

Also applies to: 157-157

27-28: ✓ Dependency ecosystem updates look reasonable.

The Go and Google Cloud ecosystem updates are standard minor/patch version bumps. golang.org/x/sync, google.golang.org/grpc, and related packages are appropriately versioned to match the Cadence/Flow-Go SDK bump requirements.

Also applies to: 212-225

tests/go.mod (2)

8-8: ✓ Test module dependencies synchronized with root go.mod.

The test module correctly mirrors Flow ecosystem updates: cadence v1.9.4, flow-go-sdk v1.9.10, flow-emulator v1.15.3 (release-tracked), and matching protobuf versions. Version consistency between root and test modules is maintained.

Also applies to: 10-10, 12-13, 168-168

---

204-204: ✓ Test-specific dependency updates are appropriate.

Minor updates to spf13/cobra, modernc.org/sqlite, and addition of golang.org/x/term are standard test infrastructure improvements. All versions remain compatible with root module updates.

Also applies to: 241-241, 251-251, 261-261
