VitePress 1.6.4 (latest stable) still depends on vite ^5.4.14, which pulls esbuild 0.21. Dependabot security updates for vite and esbuild fail with "security_update_not_possible" because no VitePress release unlocks them. An npm override pins vite to ^6.4.3 (esbuild 0.25.12). VitePress 1.6.4 builds the site correctly with it; `npm audit` reports 0 vulnerabilities. Also registers the docs npm ecosystem in dependabot.yml so future updates arrive as grouped weekly PRs instead of security-only jobs. Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>

Why the Dependabot runs fail
Both failing "Dependabot Updates" runs (#122 vite, #123 esbuild) end with
security_update_not_possible. VitePress 1.6.4, the latest stable release, declaresvite@^5.4.14, and vite 5 pins esbuild 0.21. Dependabot cannot bump either package without breaking VitePress's declared range, so it gives up. VitePress 2 is still alpha (2.0.0-alpha.20).Fix
docs/package.json:overrides: { "vite": "^6.4.3" }. The lockfile now resolves vite 6.4.3 and esbuild 0.25.12, both above the patched versions in the 4 open alerts (1 high, 3 medium)..github/dependabot.yml: adds thenpmecosystem for/docs(weekly, grouped), so the docs site gets regular update PRs instead of security-only jobs.Test plan
