Code Review

This pull request updates several Ruby gem dependencies to resolve 41 security vulnerabilities by bumping versions of libraries like activesupport, faraday, and html-proofer. To improve stability, consider using pessimistic version constraints in the Gemfile.

[gemini-code-assist]

Using optimistic operators like >= can introduce instability by allowing updates to major versions with breaking changes. Consider using pessimistic version constraints ~> to limit updates to patch and minor versions.

gem 'github-pages', '~> 224'
gem 'html-proofer', '~> 3.15.0'
