| 135 | +## Build Fixes Applied |
| 136 | + |
| 137 | +During this session, fixed several build errors in `src/tri/zenodo_templates.zig`: |
| 138 | +1. Removed unused `rows` variable (auto-fixed by zig fmt) |
| 139 | +2. Changed `writeAll` calls to `print` with empty format tuples |
| 140 | +3. Fixed format strings with `\%` → `%%` for proper escaping |
| 141 | +4. Updated test expectations for percent sign output |
| 142 | + |
| 143 | +--- |
| 144 | + |
