After some hiccups we will now roll-out nf-core/tools 4.0.2 🎉 🐍 Why the major version bump? We switched the template to require strict Nextflow syntax. More highlights: • Auto-generated container config files (more on that soon) • New command aliases • Webhook notifications replaced with Nextflow plugins -> slimmer template You can read more about these and further changes (e.g. faster pre-commit hooks 🦀) and also how to solve common merge conflicts in release the blogpost: https://nf-co.re/blog/2026/tools-4_0_0 (a video with a code walkthrough will come soon) If you need help or find bugs, feel free to drop a message in #CE5LG7WMB

I nominate meow laying down the law as the official strict syntax emoji
