What

Adds Dependabot configuration for automated dependency updates.

Config

  • npm: weekly on Mondays, minor+patch grouped, targets develop
  • GitHub Actions: weekly on Mondays, all grouped, targets develop
  • Auto-merge: patch and minor updates auto-approved and merged after CI passes
  • Major updates: require manual review

Why target develop?

Our branch model requires all changes to go through develop first. Dependabot defaults to the repo's default branch (main), which would bypass our workflow. Setting target-branch: develop keeps everything clean.

PR limits

  • npm: max 10 open PRs
  • GitHub Actions: max 5 open PRs

- npm + GitHub Actions ecosystems, weekly on Mondays
- All PRs target develop (not main) — respects our branch model
- Minor+patch grouped into single PRs to reduce noise
- Auto-approve and auto-merge for minor+patch after CI passes
- Major updates left for manual review
- Labels: dependencies, github-actions
