# LangGraph 1.2.22 fixes child-graph streaming on its own thread

> LangGraph 1.2.22 streams a child graph on its own thread when the caller streams subgraphs, and skips some message and pending-write work.

LangGraph 1.2.22 was published on November 14, 2026, at 01:43:55 UTC. If you stream subgraphs, the langgraph fix in the notes is the one to read: stream a child graph that runs on its own thread to that caller.

GitHub lists the item as `fix(langgraph): stream a child graph on its own thread to a caller streaming subgraphs` (#9698), under changes since 1.2.21. The notes do not say which earlier release this corrects, which stream modes are in scope, or how the child thread is started. Those details are unknown from the published text. The entry is labeled a fix. The notes do not describe a new streaming interface.

PyPI lists 1.2.22 as the current langgraph release. Data on that page was verified on November 14, 2026, and the page described the upload as about three hours earlier. The previous listed release, 1.2.21, is dated November 12, 2026. The package requires Python 3.10 or newer, is licensed MIT, and is classified Production/Stable. The listed maintainer is langchain.

## Performance work in the same notes

Five other langgraph entries are labeled perf:

- Skip message conversion in `add_messages` for plain messages (#9631).
- Filter pending writes to the given tasks before reading their statuses (#9634).
- Match update keys against a set on wide states (#9632).
- Check only failed futures for the runner stop condition (#9630).
- Find untracked and delta channels once per run (#9629).

The notes do not include timings or say how much work those skips remove. The same changelog also lists releases of checkpoint-postgres 3.2.1, prebuilt 1.1.2, and checkpoint 4.3.2. What changed inside those packages is not described in these notes.

PyPI describes LangGraph as a low-level orchestration framework for long-running, stateful agents, with infrastructure for durable execution, streaming, human-in-the-loop, persistence, and memory. The #9698 fix names the case where a caller streams subgraphs and a child graph runs on its own thread. Release files for 1.2.22 are a 799.6 kB source distribution and a 264.5 kB wheel, 1.1 MB in total. PyPI says both were uploaded with Trusted Publishing, via twine 7.0.0 on CPython 3.13.16, and that none of the files in this release were uploaded with provenance metadata.

If you stream subgraphs and a child graph runs on its own thread, read the 1.2.22 notes, then install or upgrade with `pip install langgraph` or `uv add langgraph` and check that the child stream reaches the caller. The notes do not include a reproduction or further migration steps.
