New features take flight,
In Fleet's latest update, strength -
Echoed in code's light.

IDP user names now,
Echo through local accounts -
Ease flows, furrows brow.

Device health API,
In zero trust workflows shines -
Security's ally.

Manual labels set,
On selected hosts they're met -
Fine control, no fret.

No hyperbole,
Just honest utility -
Fleet grows like a tree.
