bumpx is a Go-based CLI tool that automates version propagation of the internal developer SDK across all internal Spring Boot microservices for dev teams.
Whenever the platform engineering team publishes a new version of internal SDK, bumpx:
- 🔍 Identifies all consumer repos using the SDK
 - ✍️ Updates the version in their 
pom.xml - 🌀 Commits and pushes to a new branch
 - 📨 Opens pull requests
 - 🔔 Sends a Slack summary notification
 
The platform-sdk releases version 5.3.3.
Instead of asking 70+ teams to update their SDK versions manually, bumpx does it automatically — opening PRs and notifying the team via Slack.
