## 🧑‍🚀 Executive Summary [GraphOps](https://graphops.xyz) is excited to share the latest updates in our development efforts. We have released version `0.1.5` of [Subgraph Radio](https://github.com/graphops/subgraph-radio), which adds persistence, rate limiting and API support for upgrade intent messages. We also released `0.0.2` of [Graphcast CLI](https://github.com/graphops/graphcast-cli), improving the UX of sending upgrade intent messages for Subgraph Developers. For [Graphcast SDK](https://github.com/graphops/graphcast-sdk), we have introduced helpers for fetching peer and message counts, fixed support for Polygon subgraph deployments, and released version `0.4.2`. For Launchpad, we made a variety of releases to [Launchpad Charts](https://github.com/graphops/launchpad-charts) and [Launchpad Namespaces](https://github.com/graphops/launchpad-namespaces), tracking dependency updates. We also recorded a [Launchpad Quick Start workshop](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qC5KbhD3urc) and ran sessions of Launchpad Office Hours with the community. Our collaboration with Semiotic on the [Indexer Service rewrite](https://github.com/graphops/indexer-service-rs) is progressing, with a partial implementation of the paid query flow, as well as many other improvements. We’ve also extended entity field coverage for our [Graph Network Substreams](https://github.com/graphops/graph-network-substreams) implementation. Finally, [Indexer Office Hours](https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCQ7G_cCufIVUdUUUf-jdoVA) continues to be a hotbed of Indexer discussion and activity, and we are grateful to Indexers for showing up each week and giving their views. Thank you! Happy September everyone ✨ ## 🎉 Looking Back (what was delivered) ### Subgraph Radio ([Documentation](https://docs.graphops.xyz/graphcast/radios/subgraph-radio), [Docker Image](https://github.com/graphops/poi-radio/pkgs/container/subgraph-radio), [Radio Crate](https://crates.io/crates/subgraph-radio), [Radio Source](https://github.com/graphops/subgraph-radio)) -
