• nf-core modules bump-version uses the above to bump the version and build the new container and updates them in the main.nf in one go 🆙
• ~7x faster CLI startup. finally nf-core modules --help feels almost instant again (similar improvements for most commands) sonic
The main focus of this release was on the CLI, so the pipeline template updates are not so big this time (🤞🏻), mainly version updates and typo fixes. We are still testing them, so we will roll out the sync PRs at a later time.
Read more about this including some performance improvement graphs in the release blog post: https://nf-co.re/blog/2026/tools-4_1_0
Have fun building containers!
