We have 85 PRs merged last week and some big announcements:
- cognee 1.6.0 release now runs without an LLM API key: local GLiNER extraction + fastembed embeddings (demo mode) 🔥
- Cloud: GitHub connector landed, connect your whole org and load all your projects in minutes + live-streamed search answers
- improve() became an explicit orchestrator, and recall routing got stricter — unresolvable dataset names now fail loudly instead of being silently dropped
- Typed edges for custom graph models + Presort: folder pre-organization and a JSON graph-model DSL
- Security hardening: random defaults replace the hardcoded token secret and default-user password, external ref schemas rejected, MCP transport origin guards
- cognee-mcp: PyPI Trusted Publishing, X-Api-Key auth for self-hosted mode, recall results now summarize memory hits
