Dependency Update Review

Package: qs 6.14.0 → 6.14.1 (specifier: ^6.11.2 → ^6.14.1)
Semver risk: Patch
Dependency type: Production
CI status: Only one workflow ran ("Update community pull requests spreadsheet" — passed). No build or test CI checks were triggered.

Changelog Analysis

Sources consulted:

• CHANGELOG.md
• Compare v6.14.0...v6.14.1

Breaking changes: None.

Bug fixes:

• [Fix] ensure arrayLimit applies to [] notation as well
• [Fix] parse: when a custom decoder returns null for a key, ignore that key

Other changes:

• [Refactor] parse: extract key segment splitting helper
• [meta] add threat model
• [actions] add workflow permissions
• Dev dependency updates and test coverage improvements

Compatibility Assessment

• Project uses affected APIs: The project uses qs.stringify() with arrayFormat: 'comma' and a custom encoder in contentcuration/contentcuration/frontend/shared/client.js. It does not use arrayLimit, custom decoders, or parse() — the two bug fixes in this release do not affect this project's usage.
• Peer dependency requirements satisfied: Yes — qs has no peer dependencies.
• Code changes required: No.
• Prior attempts: No previous PRs for this upgrade were reverted or closed.

Lockfile Verification

The lockfile changes are limited to qs itself (6.14.0 → 6.14.1) and its transitive consumers (express, body-parser) updating their resolved qs version. An unrelated deprecated annotation appeared on whatwg-encoding — this is normal lockfile metadata refresh. No unexpected new dependencies.

CI Note

suggestion: No build or test CI checks ran on this PR — only a spreadsheet-update workflow executed. While this patch bump is low-risk and doesn't affect the APIs used by this project, the absence of test CI means compatibility hasn't been mechanically verified. Consider triggering a CI run before merging, or verify manually that the build succeeds.

Recommendation

APPROVE — This is a low-risk patch bump with two minor bug fixes that don't affect the project's usage of qs. The lockfile changes are clean and expected. The only caveat is the lack of build/test CI coverage on this PR branch.
