What is daiquiri?

A data-quality report generator that finished its API rewrite and has been coasting on small features since.

daiquiri turns a raw clinical or administrative dataset into an HTML report of time-series data-quality plots, driven by a field-type specification the user writes. The public API settled in 2022 after a wholesale rename for rOpenSci acceptance, and releases since then have added specification conveniences rather than new report content. The 1.2.0 release is the first in nearly two years.

What is OpenCTI?

OpenCTI spends a release unblocking queues and hardening upserts

7.260817.0 is a fix release. The most consequential item is malformed STIX messages nacking forever and blocking worker queues indefinitely — a stall in the ingestion path rather than a display bug. Alongside it: upsert clearing an existing createdBy when incoming confidence is higher, draft upserts crashing on existing attack patterns, OTP handling in the stream middleware, and case template relation authorization. Score fields were added to threat actor groups, intrusion sets and malware.

A data-quality report generator that finished its API rewrite and has been coasting on small features since.

◆ Current state

daiquiri turns a raw clinical or administrative dataset into an HTML report of time-series data-quality plots, driven by a field-type specification the user writes. The public API settled in 2022 after a wholesale rename for rOpenSci acceptance, and releases since then have added specification conveniences rather than new report content. The 1.2.0 release is the first in nearly two years.

◆ Where it's heading

Development has shifted from restructuring the interface to lowering the cost of using it — field_types_advanced() lets users name only the columns they care about and default the rest, which is the kind of change that matters when a dataset has hundreds of fields. Plot rendering is getting incremental attention (heatmap scaling) rather than new visualisation types. Cadence is roughly annual.

◆ Prediction

Expect the next release to continue trimming specification boilerplate for wide datasets rather than adding report sections; the entries give no indication of a new plot type or output format in progress.

OpenCTI spends a release unblocking queues and hardening upserts

◆ Current state

7.260817.0 is a fix release. The most consequential item is malformed STIX messages nacking forever and blocking worker queues indefinitely — a stall in the ingestion path rather than a display bug. Alongside it: upsert clearing an existing createdBy when incoming confidence is higher, draft upserts crashing on existing attack patterns, OTP handling in the stream middleware, and case template relation authorization. Score fields were added to threat actor groups, intrusion sets and malware.

◆ Where it's heading

The platform's feature energy went into the connector catalog and integrations rework in July, and the releases since have been consolidating: mass operations on relation times, shareable saved searches, and now a pass over ingestion robustness. Adding score to more entity types continues the slow enrichment of the data model that runs underneath the feature work.

◆ Prediction

Given score arriving on three entity types in one release, expect it to keep spreading across the data model, and the queue-blocking class of bug to draw more worker-side hardening.
