chore: pin z-engine to the released 8.4 line - #16
Merged
Conversation
z-engine 8.4.0 is tagged and on Packagist, and its master now targets PHP 8.5 - tracking dev-master would break this PHP 8.4 library on the next update. The minimum-stability/prefer-stable overrides covered only the z-engine dev dependency, so they go too. README installation notes updated accordingly; the package itself stays dev-master-installable until the next release is tagged (see #12).

Review feedback: ^8.4 would also accept z-engine 8.5+ up to 9.0, but z-engine minors track PHP minors and are not interchangeable - this library is the PHP 8.4 line, so the constraint mirrors php ~8.4.0. README wording follows. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01HRDZ2XsoVuB5uG4qXKL3ny

Replaces the
dev-masterdependency onlisachenko/z-enginewith^8.4.Why now: z-engine
8.4.0is tagged and live on Packagist, and z-engine'smasterhas moved to PHP 8.5 (lisachenko/z-engine#134) — continuing to trackdev-masterwould break this PHP 8.4 library on its next dependency update. The 8.4 line is maintained on z-engine's8.4branch.Also, per #12:
minimum-stability: dev/prefer-stable: true(z-engine was the only dev-versioned constraint);Verified locally with PHP 8.4.19:
composer validate --strictpasses andcomposer update --dry-runresolveslisachenko/z-engine (8.4.0).Outlook: this pins the library to the 8.4 line so a
1.xbranch can later be forked for PHP 8.4 maintenance whilemastermoves to the z-engine 8.5 dev dependency.🤖 Generated with Claude Code
