Workflow orchestration engine for scalable and reproducible data pipelines

Nextflow 26.10.6 fixes caching and Wave retries as the 26.10 line settles.

◆Current state
Nextflow ships dated edge builds plus 25.10, 26.04 and 26.10 stable lines for backports. October was dominated by the Bitbucket Cloud token leak, patched across all three lines. Since then 26.10 has returned to normal maintenance: 26.10.5 added Wave SOCI lazy loading, and 26.10.6 on 12 November fixes resume for enums in modules, includes typed-process stage directives in the task hash, and retries Wave connection failures longer.
◆Where it's heading
The 26.10 line is in steady patching, with most fixes touching the new typed-process and type-system features and the Wave container service. Several fixes affect task hashing and resume, which suggests the typed syntax is still being hardened for real pipelines.
◆Prediction
Expect further 26.10.x patches around typed processes and Wave, with new features arriving first in edge builds.

    Nextflow 26.10.6 fixes resume, task hashing and Wave retries

    A fix-only patch for the 26.10 line: enums in modules now resume correctly, typed-process stage directives count toward the task hash, and Wave connection failures retry longer. It continues hardening the typed-process features introduced this autumn.

    Nextflow 26.10.5 adds Wave SOCI lazy loading

    A post-security-fix patch that returns to features: a wave.soci option lets Wave containers lazy-load image layers, cutting task start time on large images. It also fixes missing DAG edges for typed processes and a JVM hang from channel.interval, and makes Seqera task submission idempotent.

    Nextflow 26.04.8 stops leaking Bitbucket tokens; rotate them

    Nextflow 26.04.8 keeps Bitbucket Cloud API tokens out of clone URLs and logs; anyone who used a token on 26.04.0 to 26.04.7 should rotate it, since it may have been written to logs and .git/config.

    Nextflow 25.10.9: Bitbucket token leak fix backported

    The same Bitbucket token-leak fix backported to the 25.10 line; users on 25.10.0 through 25.10.8 who used a token should rotate it.
