Hawkeye217 contributed two important security-focused pull requests. The first adds role-based authentication to the websocket message handler, strengthening access controls for real-time communications. The second implements multiple security hardening measures, including API key scrubbing from configuration…

The final merge came from abinila4, updating MemryX documentation to point users toward SDK 2.1 resources and adding guidance for custom model compilation.

Two additional commits were processed as part of these merges, consolidating the profile management improvements and security fixes into the main codebase.
