Summary & Recommendations

✅ Approved Items: 11

❌ Issues Found: 2

⚠️ Warnings: 1

Critical Actions Required:

1. Update CHANGELOG.md (go.mod:7, go.mod:18)

   • Document the dependency version bumps

2. Run test suite

   • Execute go test ./... to verify compatibility
   • Ensure test coverage remains above 80%

3. Review upstream changelogs

   • Check go-helpers v0.6.14 release notes for breaking changes or important fixes
   • Review golang.org/x/exp changes between the two pseudo-versions

Overall Assessment:

This is a routine dependency maintenance PR with low risk. The changes are limited to dependency version bumps in go.mod and corresponding checksum updates in go.sum. However, before merging:

• Add CHANGELOG.md entry
• Verify all tests pass
• Confirm no breaking changes in updated dependencies

The PR is conditionally approved pending the actions above.
