- **fixed** — Fixed GCP service connector failures when connecting to private GKE clusters that use Google's DNS-based control plane endpoint by connecting using the same method as gcloud container clusters get-credentials --dns-endpoint
- **fixed** — Resolved an issue where ZenML would fail when no container engine was available even when users explicitly set skip_build=True in their DockerSettings
- **fixed** — Include hook sources as string in snapshot config template

###### Infrastructure & Deployment Improvements

- **Enhanced GKE Private Cluster Support**: Fixed GCP service connector failures when connecting to private GKE clusters that use Google's DNS-based control plane endpoint. ZenML now connects using the same method as `gcloud container clusters get-credentials --dns-endpoint`, ensuring reliable access to private clusters. [PR #4856](https://github.com/zenml-io/zenml/pull/4856)

<details><summary>Fixed</summary>

- **Docker Build Requirements**: Resolved an issue where ZenML would fail when no container engine was available, even when users explicitly set `skip_build=True` in their DockerSettings. The build checksum computation now correctly respects the skip_build flag. [PR #4879](https://github.com/zenml-io/zenml/pull/4879)
