-            Updates the `uv.lock` and `pyproject.toml` files to the latest package versions available as of **${{ steps.date.outputs.cutoff_date }}**.
-            
-            - **Single Source of Truth:** Dependencies are still read from `pyproject.toml`.
-            - **14-Day Buffer:** Only releases older than 2 weeks are included.
-            - **Cryptographic Integrity:** The lockfile contains SHA-256 hashes for all packages to prevent tampering.
