**Related issue:** N/A — fixes the `check-doc-gen` job failing on `main` The "Check automated documentation is up-to-date" workflow has been failing on every push to `main` (and every PR that triggers it) since ~18:30 UTC 2026-07-27. The failing step, "Verify osquery table JSON schema is up-to-date," runs `cd website && npm install && sails run generate-merged-schema` and fails if `git diff` is non-empty afterward. The diff it fails on is `website/package-lock.json` itself: `sails-hook-grunt`'s published tarball ships a `node_modules` folder with packages that aren't part of its dependency graph (dev leftovers like `mocha@3.0.2` and `growl@1.9.2`). Newer npm on the CI runners records those on-disk packages in the lockfile as `"extraneous": true` entries, so any committed lockfile that omits them (e.g. after #49852 regenerated it) no longer matches what `npm install` produces — and any committed lockfile that *includes* them gets flagged by `dependency-review` for the critical `growl@1.9.2` advisory (GHSA-qh2h-chj9-jffq), even though growl is never actually installable from the dependency graph. This PR fixes the root cause instead of chasing npm's output: - **`check-doc-gen` now uses `npm ci` instead of `npm install`** — `npm ci` never rewrites `package-lock.json`, so the step's `git diff` check only catches what it's meant to catch (schema drift), and future runner npm upgrades can't reintroduce lockfile churn. - **`website/package-lock.json` regenerated with `npm install --package-lock-only`** — drops the 107 `extraneous` entries (including `growl@1.9.2`) that were committed to pacify the old `npm install`-based check. No dependency versions change; `npm ci --dry-run` validates the lockfile is in sync. # Checklist for submitter If some of the following don't apply, delete the relevant line. ## Testing - [x] QA'd all new/changed functionality manually — verified locally that `npm ci --dry-run` accepts the updated lockfile and that `growl`/`extraneous` entries are gone. Since this PR now modifies the workflow file itself, the `pull_request` path filter triggers `check-doc-gen` on this PR, verifying the `npm ci` path end-to-end in CI. 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) <!-- This is an auto-generated comment: release notes by coderabbit.ai --> ## Summary by CodeRabbit * **Chores** * Improved automated schema validation by using deterministic dependency installation to reduce unnecessary lockfile churn. * Refreshed the generated-schema failure message with the correct regeneration steps to follow when updates are detected. <!-- end of auto-generated comment: release notes by coderabbit.ai -->

Open-source platform for IT and security teams with thousands of computers. Designed for APIs, GitOps, webhooks, YAML, and humans.
What's it for?
Fleet gives you a single system to secure and maintain all your computing devices over the air. You can do MDM, patch stuff, deploy software, and verify anything, all from one place, across every OS your organization uses.
Fleet works directly with data and events from the native operating system, down to the bare metal. Strong diagnostics let you investigate errors on end-user devices and collect accurate audit evidence in minutes.
Get started
You can try Fleet out for yourself, or grab time with one of the maintainers to chat.
Is it any good?
Fleet is used in production by IT and security teams managing thousands of devices. Many deployments support tens of thousands of hosts, and a few large organizations manage 400,000 or more.
Supported platforms
- Linux (all distros)
- macOS
- Windows
- Chromebooks
- iOS and Android (BYOD or corporate-owned)
- Amazon Web Services (AWS)
- Google Cloud (GCP)
- Azure (Microsoft cloud)
- Data centers
- Containers (kube, etc)
- Linux-based IoT devices
Infrastructure as code
Manage your fleet with GitOps, or use the GUI, REST API, webhook events, and the fleetctl command-line tool.
Linux support
First-class support for all major distros. Linux gets the same attention and visibility as macOS and Windows.
Visibility and compliance
Fleet can report on hundreds of attributes across your devices and ships with CIS benchmarks for macOS and Windows and comprehensive operating system, hardware, and software data. Check out the table reference documentation to see what's available.
Open by design
Fleet is open source and transparent about what it can and can't see. End users can verify exactly how the agent works and what data their company collects. Fleet collects only the data needed to manage and secure devices, not private activity like keystrokes, emails, or webcams.
Good neighbors
Ready-to-use, enterprise-friendly integrations exist for Snowflake, Splunk, GitHub Actions, Vanta, Elastic Jira, Zendesk, and more. Fleet also works with tools such as Munki, Chef, Puppet, Ansible, CrowdStrike, and SentinelOne.
Lighter than air
Fleet is lightweight and modular. You can use it for MDM without using it for security, and vice versa. You can turn off features you are not using.
Free as in free
The free version of Fleet will always be free. Fleet is independently backed and actively maintained with the help of many amazing contributors.
Longevity
The company behind Fleet is founded (and majority-owned) by true believers in open source. The company's business model is influenced by GitLab (NYSE: GTLB), with great investors, happy customers, and the capacity to become profitable at any time.
Fleet Device Management's company handbook is public and open source. You can read about the history of Fleet and our commitment to improving the product.
Chat
The Fleet community is full of kind and helpful people. Whether or not you are a paying customer, if you need help, just reach out.
Contributing 
Contributions are welcome, whether you answer questions on Slack / GitHub / LinkedIn, improve the documentation or website, write a tutorial, give a talk at a conference or local meetup, give an interview on a podcast, troubleshoot reported issues, or submit a patch.
