Drafts the release post for v26.7.1, following the house pattern for release announcements (byline Viktor Petersson, "The One That ..." title, TL;DR block, per-theme sections, Getting Started). Leads on VEX, which is the substantive change in this release: three formats, in-product triage, Dependency-Track sync, and scheduled drift detection. Then CBOM ingestion breadth (framed as closing the gap left by v26.7.0), Trust Center exposure, and the vulnerability-count posture fix, which is called out separately because users will see their totals drop. Left as `draft: true` so merging does not publish it before it has been reviewed -- delete that line to ship. Verified: dprint clean, Hugo builds, and every internal link resolves (previous release post, /features/ trust-center/, /authors/vpetersson/, all tag pages).

Draft release post for v26.7.1, matching the existing release-announcement pattern.
Conventions followed
Modelled on the v26.7.0 post and the two before it:
YYYY-MM-DD-announcing-sbomify-vXX-Y-Z-the-one-that-...filename and matchingslugtitle,description,author.display_name,categories: [announcement],tags,tldr,date— nokeywords, consistent with the other release posts (only 6 of 91 posts use it)---separators between themes,## Getting Startedlast with hosted / self-hosted split and a link to the GitHub release notesStructure
VEX leads, since it is the substantive change: three formats (CycloneDX / OpenVEX / CSAF), in-product triage, Dependency-Track sync, scheduled drift detection. The post explains why VEX matters before listing features, the way the v26.7.0 post introduced CBOM.
Then CBOM ingestion breadth — framed as closing the gap v26.7.0 left, with a link back to that post — Trust Center exposure, and a section on the vulnerability-count fix.
That count fix gets its own section deliberately: users will see their totals drop, in many cases sharply, and it is better to explain that in advance than to field confused questions. The post is explicit that nothing was fixed by the change itself, the number is just accurate now.
Design refresh, API/security, and a short "Under the Hood" on CI and error-tracking round it out.

draft: trueis set, so merging will not publish it. Remove that line when you are happy with the copy. I defaulted to draft since you asked for a draft, and the deploy workflow publishes on push tomaster.The commit is authored by
vpetersson-bot, not Viktor. The post byline is Viktor Petersson as requested, but I did not forge git authorship. Reassign or amend the commit if you would rather it be attributed to you.
