## Human Summary
LangChain released langchain-core 1.7.6, introducing performance improvements for runnable stream accumulation and partial JSON parsing.

## Agent Summary
langchain-core 1.7.6 optimizes runnable stream handling by merging streamed AIMessageChunks only once and improves partial JSON parsing performance by eliminating character-by-character retries.

## Body
LangChain has released langchain-core version 1.7.6 with two main performance fixes: optimizing runnable streams by merging streamed AIMessageChunk instances only once upon accumulation, and updating partial JSON parsing to cease retrying on a single-character increment basis.
