Copilot This PR was opened by Dependabot. Please take it the rest of the way before it's ready for human review:

1. Impact analysis — identify what changed (package name, old → new version) from the PR diff/description, search the codebase for where that dependency is actually used, and summarize what could be affected.
2. Fix build/conflict issues — run npm ci --legacy-peer-deps, npm run build, and npm run lint; resolve any merge conflicts, build errors, or lint errors that surface.
3. Tests — add or update tests under tests/** to cover the changed usage, and make sure they meaningfully validate the change (not just re-assert the version bump).
4. Run the suite — run the relevant npm run test:* script(s) for the affected area (e.g. test:blob, test:queue, test:table) and keep fixing until they pass.
5. Changelog — append one bullet to ChangeLog.md under ## Upcoming Release → General:, matching the existing style and tone of the entries already there (package name in backticks, old → new version, why, and a one-line concise summary of any code changes made).
6. Comments — review any existing PR comments and review threads, including resolved/hidden ones, and address anything actionable.
7. Self-rate — rate this work 1-10 against: correctness, test coverage, changelog accuracy, build/lint health, and comment resolution.
8. Iterate — if it's not a 10, keep improving until it is before finishing.
9. Summary — post a final comment explaining why this update matters, what the impact/risk is, and what could go wrong if it weren't applied, along with your self-rating and reasoning.

Done. Summary:

1. Impact analysis: @typescript-eslint/eslint-plugin 8.67.0 → 8.68.0 is a dev-only dependency used exclusively by eslint.config.js for linting; it isn't imported by any production or test source, so no code changes were required.
2. Build/lint: npm ci --legacy-peer-deps, npm run build, and npm run lint all pass cleanly with the new version.
3. Tests: The existing tests/eslintConfig.test.ts @loki smoke test lints a TypeScript fixture using the project's ESLint config, which exercises the bumped plugin/parser — it passes.
4. Test suite: Since this only affects the dev-tooling lint pipeline (not blob/queue/table runtime code), the eslint config test above is the relevant coverage; npm run lint also passed with zero errors/warnings.
5. Changelog: Added a bullet under ## Upcoming Release → General: in ChangeLog.md.
6. npm audit shows the same 3 pre-existing moderate uuid advisories, unrelated to this bump.

Self-rating: 10/10 — correctness (no code needed, verified via build/lint), test coverage (existing smoke test validates the new version), changelog accuracy (documented with version/rationale), build/lint health (all green), comment resolution (this thread addressed).

Why this matters: @typescript-eslint/eslint-plugin is dev-tooling only — it enforces code quality via lint rules and has no runtime impact. Skipping this update would mean missing bug fixes/rule improvements in the 8.68.0 release and drifting further from the latest supported version, but there's no functional risk to the Azurite runtime if it weren't applied.
