Executive Summary

Key accomplishments include enhancing graph-tooling with Timestamp Scalar support and refining local development experiences. Looking forward, our focus is on continued collaboration with Edge and Node, streamlining subgraph publishing, refining the indexer, and advancing the new query planner for graph-client.
