Real fixes shipped upstream — bug hunting, root-cause analysis, and PRs against the tools I rely on every day.

• 🔧 issue #82904 → merged fix #82986 — Managed Chrome CDP launch was throwing self-contradicting failures on cold-start: isChromeReachable (HTTP-only probe) and diagnoseChromeCdp (full WebSocket + Browser.getVersion) disagreed about readiness. Reported with a 5-incident history, root cause traced through the built JS, and a proposed fix that shipped on main.
• 🔧 issue #77155 → merged fix #77573 — doctor --fix was wiping externalized plugins during the v2026.5.2 migration.

• 🌍 Wanderlust skill — merged PR #504: broadened pp-wanderlust-goat triggers so LLM routers invoke the CLI for city-wide place queries ("best coffee in Redmond"), not just "near me"-anchored ones.
• 🛒 Instacart CLI skill — issue #501 → fix #539 and issue #546 → fix #563: location bugs that broke the Instacart plugin.
• ☁️ Weather Goat skill — issue #502 → fix #541: weather-goat-pp-cli geocoding was routing /search to api.open-meteo.com (404) instead of Open-Meteo's dedicated geocoding-api.open-meteo.com host.

• 🪲 issue #562 · PoC — Denial-of-service vulnerability in feedparser ≤ 6.0.11: a crafted RSS/Atom author field triggers catastrophic regex backtracking in _sync_author_detail() and hangs the parser (ReDoS / CWE-1333). CVE assignment in progress.
