Code Review

This pull request updates several package dependencies. My review focuses on improving the long-term maintainability and stability of the project by suggesting to pin versions of development tools like prettier, pretty-quick, jsdoc, and husky. Pinning these devDependencies ensures a consistent development environment for all contributors, preventing unexpected changes in code formatting, documentation generation, and git hooks.

For build and commit process stability, it's a good practice to pin the version of husky. This ensures that git hooks behave identically for everyone and avoids potential issues from automatic minor updates.

Suggested change

	"husky": "^9.1.7",
	"husky": "9.1.7",

To prevent unexpected changes in the generated documentation, it's advisable to pin the jsdoc version. A minor update could alter the documentation's structure or appearance, and pinning the version ensures consistency.

Suggested change

	"jsdoc": "^4.0.5",
	"jsdoc": "4.0.5",

[gemini-code-assist]

To ensure consistent code formatting across all development environments and CI, it's a good practice to pin the version of prettier. Using a caret ^ can lead to different minor versions being used by different developers, which might introduce unexpected formatting changes. Pinning the version guarantees that everyone uses the exact same formatter version.

Suggested change

	"prettier": "^3.6.2",
	"prettier": "3.6.2",

Similar to prettier, it's beneficial to pin the version of pretty-quick. This ensures that the tool orchestrating the code formatting is consistent for all developers, preventing potential discrepancies in how formatting is applied.

Suggested change

	"pretty-quick": "^4.2.2",
	"pretty-quick": "4.2.2",
