maintain configuration standards

Ensure configuration files maintain both consistency and currency across all services. Configuration values should follow established patterns within the codebase and use up-to-date versions for runtimes and dependencies.

Key practices:

• Apply consistent validation modes across all service configurations (e.g., configValidationMode: error)
• Keep runtime versions current and avoid outdated versions
• Review configuration files for both standardization and version currency

Example from serverless.yml:

service: my-service

configValidationMode: error  # Consistent validation across services

provider:
  name: aws
  runtime: nodejs16.x  # Use current runtime versions, not nodejs12.x

This ensures reliable deployments and reduces configuration drift between services while maintaining security and compatibility with current platform features.
