February 2026 focused on delivering the v13 MQL transition and strengthening upgrade and release stability across cnquery and cnspec. Implemented feature-flag gated auto-updates, migrated CNQuery to MQL with removal of the cnquery scan, upgraded MQL to v13 across CNQuery/CNSpec, added auto-update for cnspec, and improved shell navigation UX, while enhancing query packs and documentation. These changes improve safety of upgrades, cross-platform asset inventory, and developer productivity, while maintaining compatibility with provider IDs/versions and improving release processes.

Concise monthly summary for 2026-01 focusing on business value and technical achievements across mondoohq/cnquery and mondoohq/cnspec.

Month: 2025-11 — Delivered policy governance enhancements for mondoohq/cnspec with a provider-focused policy model and stronger validation. Implemented a new 'require' field in policies to specify provider requirements, enabling policy validation and more robust configurations. Added lint checks to ensure provider requirements are defined and that policy configurations respect provider requirements. Adjusted components to honor the auto-update flag and refined handling of provider installations, including reusing the existing provider installation flow for efficiency. Clarified policy config with a rename from require.name to require.provider (require.provider) and updated processor logic accordingly. Updated CLI tests and refactors to improve test coverage and stability, including related changes to time marshalling and content sorting. Business value: improved policy compliance, reduced misconfigurations, streamlined provider onboarding, and a more maintainable policy engine.

Month: 2025-10. Focused on delivering practical data-processing improvements and robust time-handling fixes in mondoohq/cnquery to accelerate query transformations, reduce risk, and improve developer productivity. Highlights include new array utilities, enhanced type compatibility for join operations, and safer time comparisons with lint improvements.

September 2025 monthly summary focused on delivering clear risk assessment UX improvements, enabling safer feature rollouts with server-side flags, and upgrading underlying dependencies for stability and performance. The month prioritized business value through user-facing clarity, backward-compatible changes, and resilient architecture.

Monthly summary for 2025-08: Delivered targeted documentation and tooling improvements across two repositories, strengthening developer experience and release readiness. The MQL documentation and writing guide were enhanced to cover built-in functions (array, map, string, number, time, IP) and to provide an overview of MQL usage, with a note that the image compression workflow was temporarily disabled in this cycle due to failures. The image optimization workflow was reintroduced to restore automated image and asset optimization. In mondoohq/cnspec, major version 12 readiness was pursued by aligning dependencies with cnquery v12, refactoring import paths and version numbers for compatibility, and upgrading goreleaser to v12 to ensure accurate build metadata for a smooth rollout.

July 2025 was focused on delivering user-centric improvements across two core repositories (mondoohq/cnspec and mondoohq/cnquery) to accelerate triage, improve configuration reliability, and enhance action handling. The work emphasizes business value through clearer outputs, robust time parsing, and flexible JSON action handling, enabling faster decision-making and reduced operational risk.

June 2025 performance summary for mondoohq/cnquery: Delivered foundational audit tooling, improved code organization, and strengthened debugging capabilities, delivering measurable business value through easier rule management, faster troubleshooting, and higher code quality.

May 2025 monthly summary for mondoohq/docs: Delivered automated remediation via Click2Fix framework and improved CI resilience by making image comparison non-fatal in workflows. These changes enhance security posture, reduce deployment risk, and improve pipeline reliability, aligning with business value of safer, scalable infrastructure and faster feedback loops.

April 2025 CNQuery development: Delivered substantial enhancements across the Type System, Terraform provider, and migration readiness, while expanding data query capabilities and configuration parsing. Emphasis on documentation, accessibility, and forward-looking architecture to support business-critical use cases (security, observability, and compliance). No major bugs fixed this period; minor regressions or edge issues were addressed in existing tests.

March 2025 CNQuery monthly summary focused on delivering robust IP addressing capabilities, safer query construction, and cleaner error reporting, with measurable business impact through improved data accuracy and developer productivity.

February 2025 (mondoohq/cnquery) delivered significant improvements across data extraction, context propagation, and versioning, with UX refinements and reliability fixes. Key features include enhanced file context capture and CLI display for resource blocks (sshd.config, etc.), a dedicated range.go module with configurable extraction and tests, and a new LR context field to carry resource context through parsing. Versioning improvements add epoch support to MQL semver, a new version type with robust conversion, and inRange checks, while UX changes migrate feature settings from environment variables and improve user-facing messages. A Makefile test path fix ensures lr module tests run against the correct path, reducing CI noise. These workstreams improve data fidelity, developer productivity, and release confidence.

January 2025 (mondoohq/cnquery) — Focused on correctness and robustness of dictionary filtering in the contains method. Implemented cross-type support for dict and array(dict) in the comparison logic, enhancing reliability when filtering by dictionary values. No new user-facing features this month; primary value comes from improved query accuracy and stability.

Monthly summary for 2024-11 focusing on CNSpec contributions. Delivered an experimental policy migration framework for bundles enabling versioning and modification of policies, with new data structures and core migration semantics (matches, targets, actions) to support policy evolution management. Lays groundwork for safer policy upgrades and future migrations testing within the bundle ecosystem. Demonstrated expertise in data modeling, experimental design, and hands-on code contributions.
