Note: the analysis source (fix-dependabot-alerts.mjs) is broader than the GitHub Dependabot REST API — it also audits the lockfile directly. Some packages listed above may not have a corresponding open Dependabot alert, and vice versa.

How this works

1. Analyses all open Dependabot alerts
2. Applies each fix individually with build verification
3. Rolls back any fix that breaks the build
4. Only passing fixes are included in this PR

Review checklist

• Check that no breaking changes were introduced
• Verify rolled-back packages are investigated separately
• Run tests locally if concerned about specific packages
