UPDATE: I'm now in the lead! Sorry Shane! I'm not used to the AU edition, and am based in UK so there's been a serious learning curve on many of the questions... but the `sct` toolkit coped with its first non-UK SNOMED edition test without any problems. github.com/pacharanero/...

Pathling can now answer SNOMED CT and FHIR terminology queries with no terminology server and no network connection. Release files import once into Delta tables; the same seven functions run against them. A full SNOMED CT UK edition fits in 536 MB of heap. pathling.csiro.au/blog/local-terminology

The three SQL on FHIR operations inherited from the continuous build are retired in favour of `$sql-run` and `$sql-export`. Renamed config properties, authorities and upgrade notes are all in the post. pathling.csiro.au/blog/pathlin...

`$jobs` lists the asynchronous jobs on the server: the operation that started each one, its status, progress, and the URL to poll or cancel it. With authorisation on, a caller sees only their own. The admin UI has a matching page, so an operator can stop a runaway query.

John Grimes @john-grimes.bsky.social · 02/09/2026

`$sql-export` carries any number of subjects in one job, in any mixture of ViewDefinitions, SQLQueries and SQLViews. Each reads the Delta table versions pinned when the job began, so a write that lands mid-job is invisible to all of them. NDJSON, CSV or Parquet, one file per subject.

John Grimes @john-grimes.bsky.social · 02/09/2026

SQLView Libraries are named SQL table sources, stored on the server and referenced by canonical URL. A cohort filter or a derived column is written once, then read by any number of queries and views. Change the definition and every dependent query picks it up on its next run.

Pathling server v3 is out. It implements the two SQL on FHIR 3.0.0 operations that just went to HL7 ballot, `$sql-run` and `$sql-export`, and lets you build SQL queries out of other SQL queries. pathling.csiro.au/blog/pathlin...
