User description

What this does

Adds a groups: key to the existing npm update entry in .github/dependabot.yml, grouping all npm dependency bumps in this repo into a single Dependabot PR per scheduled run instead of one PR per package. Also adds a 7-day cooldown on newly published versions (waits before proposing a bump to a package that just shipped), matching a semgrep guardrail check that flags configs missing a cooldown.

Why

Measured across the wave-av org on 2026-09-07: only 6 of 170 non-archived repos have a dependabot.yml at all, and of those, sdk, mcp-server, and adk had a config but no groups: key — the smallest possible lift on a file that already exists. Org-wide, 61 of 217 open Dependabot PRs (28%) are CONFLICTING in GitHub's mergeable-state check. Every Dependabot PR rewrites the lockfile, so unrelated single-package PRs are same-hunk-with-each-other by construction — the first one to merge invalidates the lockfile diff in all the others, and ordering can't fix that, only grouping can (bundle the bumps into one lockfile rewrite instead of N races against each other).

Grouping is not a hypothesis here — it is already deployed and working in the fleet. wave-spoke-template's Dependabot config uses this exact groups: { <name>: { patterns: ["*"] } } shape per ecosystem/directory, and every one of its grouped PRs is clean; its only conflicting PRs predate the groups config being added. This PR models the new block directly on that reference.

For this repo specifically at time of writing, two open Dependabot PRs are already CONFLICTING: #49 (typescript major bump) and #46 (eslint bump). Those predate this change and are a separate cleanup — this PR does not touch them.

What this does NOT do

Grouping is forward-looking only. It changes how future Dependabot runs open PRs; it does not retroactively merge, rebase, or de-conflict any PR that already exists. The currently open dependency PRs (#68, #49, #48, #47, #46, #22) are untouched by this change.

Scope

Config-only change to .github/dependabot.yml. No workflow, dependency, or lockfile changes. Not merging this PR as part of this change — opening for review only.
