Sitecore XM CloudPGS-4821 -Page Builder should have save feature by User not auto Save
The Page Builder in Sitecore AI features an auto-save functionality, which makes it difficult for users to track their changes. Even when no modifications are made, the system automatically saves the item and indicates that it has been modified. To address this issue, I suggested adding a manual save option, allowing users to choose whether to keep or discard changes. The Sitecore team has accepted this feedback and registered it as a feature request.

Sitecore SearchSitecore Hackathon 2025
I developed a support chatbot that integrates with the Sitecore Hackathon website to provide instant answers to user queries. Integration is achieved by crawling the website content and generating a queries.json file, which is then incorporated into a NextJS application to power the conversational chatbot. The main benefit is a self-service solution where content from any site can be used, and the chatbot application can be embedded as a link within head apps.

CS0440193 - During my work with PDF documents in search, I encountered an issue where documents of larger size would cause a "PDF crawl error with invalid payload size."
