Note for zero-installs users

If you are using the Yarn feature zero-installs that was introduced in Yarn V2, note that this PR does not update the .yarn/cache/ directory meaning this code cannot be pulled and immediately developed on as one would expect for a zero-install project - you will need to run yarn to update the contents of the ./yarn/cache directory.
If you are not using zero-install you can ignore this as your flow should likely be unchanged.

⚠️ Warning

Failed to update the yarn.lock, please update manually before merging.

Code Review

This pull request, automatically generated by Snyk, proposes a security upgrade for @backstage/errors. However, the proposed change is actually a significant downgrade from version 1.2.1 (from the local workspace) to 0.1.1. This change is incorrect, breaks the monorepo's dependency management, and will likely introduce issues. I have left a specific comment detailing the problem. This PR should not be merged as it is.

[gemini-code-assist]

This change incorrectly downgrades @backstage/errors. The version is being changed from workspace:^ (which resolves to the local 1.2.1 in this monorepo) to the much older 0.1.1. This will likely cause breakages.

This also breaks the yarn workspace convention by fetching an old version from the registry instead of using the local package. This PR seems to be based on a faulty analysis by Snyk and should be rejected. Please revert this change.

Suggested change

	"@backstage/errors": "0.1.1",
	"@backstage/errors": "workspace:^",

Walkthrough

This pull request updates the dependency management strategy for the @backstage/errors package in the project. The change transitions from using a workspace protocol reference (workspace:^) to a fixed version specification (0.1.1). This modification indicates the package is moving away from relying on a local monorepo workspace dependency and instead explicitly declaring a versioned package dependency. Such changes are typically made when preparing a package for publication, establishing version stability, or decoupling from the monorepo workspace structure. This affects how package managers resolve and install the dependency during the installation process.

File(s)	Summary
package.json	Changed @backstage/errors dependency from workspace protocol reference (workspace:^) to fixed version 0.1.1.
