How to request a review: Comment @buildsworth-bk review on the PR, or request buildsworth-bk as a reviewer.

Risk labels (how buildsworth classifies risk) — buildsworth classifies risk itself from the diff. To let it approve, grant L2 approval by mentioning @buildsworth-bk (see L2 approval grant):

• L1 — Low risk (dep bumps, docs/copy, lockfiles, small presentational fixes). buildsworth may approve by default.
• L2 — Standard risk (new UI, additive API fields, refactors). Approved only with an L2 grant; otherwise comment-only.
• L3 — High risk (auth, migrations, payments, secrets, perf-critical paths). Human review always required.

Blocking: This resolves qs to 6.14.2, so merging the PR will not install the advertised 6.15.3 or any of its 6.15.x fixes. npm ls qs --all confirms that both consumers use 6.14.2; @cypress/request@3.0.10 currently constrains it to ~6.14.1. Please either produce a lockfile that includes 6.15.3 (and handle that constraint) or retarget the PR to the 6.14.2 update it actually contains.
