## Dependabot Configuration

Automated dependency updates via GitHub Dependabot run weekly and are grouped into two categories:
Automated dependency updates via GitHub Dependabot run weekly and are grouped into four categories:

**Production Dependencies Group**: All dependencies excluding `@types/*`, `typescript`, `vitest`, `eslint*`, `prettier`
**production-dependencies**: All production dependencies (minor and patch updates)

**Dev Dependencies Group**: `@types/*`, `typescript`, `vitest`, `eslint*`, `prettier`
**dev-dependencies**: All development dependencies (minor and patch updates)

This grouping prevents excessive PRs by batching related updates. All dependency updates use the `chore(deps):` conventional commit prefix, which does not trigger version bumps.
**dev-toolchain-majors**: Major-version updates for `@eslint/*`, `@types/*`, `@vitest/*`, `eslint`, `typescript`, `typescript-eslint`, `vitest`

**dev-other-majors**: Major-version updates for all other dependencies

This grouping prevents excessive PRs by batching related updates and isolating major-version bumps from routine minor/patch updates. All dependency updates use the `chore(deps)` conventional commit prefix, which does not trigger version bumps.
