My 25 years of palaeoart chronology...
Isotope studies show that juvenile Limusaurus were meat-eaters but adults were plant-eaters. This is from DINOSAUR BEHAVIOUR (2023), by Prof Michael Benton (published by Princeton University Press).

Shuvuuia deserti was a small maniraptoran theropod from the Late Cretaceous of Mongolia. Its short, strong arm might have been used for digging, perhaps into insect mounds.

New method finds higher carnivorous #dinosaur #biodiversity in Kem Kem beds of Morocco https://phys.org/news/2024-03-method-higher-carnivorous-dinosaur-biodiversity.html
A combined approach to identify isolated theropod teeth from the Cenomanian #KemKem Group https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/02724634.2024.2311791
"This new combination of analyses was performed on the teeth of carnivorous #dinosaurs, named #theropods, from a set of isolated teeth from the famous #Cretaceous Kem Kem beds of #Morocco. It turned out to reveal a theropod species previously not found in this area."
