Hey - I've found 1 issue, and left some high level feedback:
- The
package-ecosystemfield is left as an empty string; Dependabot will ignore this entry unless you set it to a valid ecosystem (e.g.,github-actions,npm,pip, etc.), so choose the appropriate value(s) for this repo. - If this repository uses multiple ecosystems (e.g., both application dependencies and GitHub Actions), consider adding separate
updatesblocks for each so all relevant dependencies are covered.

**issue (bug_risk):** Specify a concrete package-ecosystem to avoid this config being a no-op.
Leaving `package-ecosystem` empty means Dependabot will not run. Set this to the correct ecosystem for this repo (e.g., `"npm"`, `"github-actions"`, `"pip"`), or add multiple `updates` entries if you need to support more than one.

- The dependabot.yml file is added with template structure and comments
- The configuration is incomplete with an empty package-ecosystem value that must be specified
- The schedule is set to weekly updates

The package-ecosystem field is set to an empty string, which will cause Dependabot to fail. Based on the repository structure (package.json exists), this should be set to "npm". Consider also adding configurations for "docker" since Dockerfile and docker-compose.yml are present, and "github-actions" if any workflows exist.
